A high quality food.

Nothing you find at a grocery store is going to be a good food. High quality foods can be found at large pet store chains, or online. A couple of foods I like are Innova, Innova Evo and Cannidae.

There are other high quality dog foods. Here's how to spot them:

A high quality food will have little or no fillers such as corn, wheat or soy. These aren't very digestable for dogs, and are common food related allergens. Since you were seeing corn meal in the first few ingredients, those are not high quality foods. Foods list ingredients by content, with the ingredient it contains most of at the top.

A high quality food will not contain BHT, BHA or Ethoxyquin, these are all chemical preservatives that have been linked to cancer.

A high quality food will not contain by-products of any kind. Meat meals are ok as long as the source of the meat is listed, such as Chicken Meal.

A high quality diet should have meat as at least the first ingredient., and be made from human grade ingredients. Foods that don't use human grade ingredients often get their ingredients from less than desirable sources, such as meat from animals that were diseased, or euthanized.

There is another diet option other than dog food. Some people choose to feed a raw diet. This involves feeding the dog raw meaty bones and organ meat. However it is not as simple as throwing a couple chicken bones in a bowl everyday. If you wish to feed this type of diet, do lots and lots of research first. Switching to this diet without knowing what your doing can lead to nutritional problems for your dog. I'll give you some links as a starting point in research if you are interested in this type of diet.

the best thing to feed a dog/puppy thats out there now is Chicken Soup for the puppy/dog/cat lovers soul. Its all natural and has real ingredients in it. Not a bunch of fillers like corn meal which dogs can be allergic to. Its not too expensive about 9$ for a 10lb back and 18-20 for a big bag. Go to the website and find a dealer in your area and ask them about it. Its really great food and its good for your dog or any animal you have.
Oh if you switch the food dont just switch it over. Do a portion mixture with the old food and new food slowly rationing out the old food. That way the dog doesnt get diarhhea

Believe it or not (and I'm not trying to be rude here) Puggles are not special dogs (although they are very, very cute) and are no different than any other dog. If it's a puppy the best food it could be on is Puppy Chow -- either the Purina brand or any brand that your vet specifies.

My puggle likes Nutro. Chicken, rice and oatmeal for sensitive stomaches. Every once in a while she gets a upset stomach, which is always a empty stomach, my vet suggested nutro for sensitive stomaches. It contains good stuff in it. Don't get anything from the groci..
