This review does include the lamb and rice-still a 2 star food based on Mike’s criteria. If your dog does great on it, then its a higher “star” food for you : )

I was feeding my Shelties Iam’s Lamb & Rice formula, until stories of food recalls prompted me to do further research on my pets’ food. I visited a local holistic pet food store (Hollywood Feed, if you want to search for one in your area), where they suggested FROMM. I mixed the Fromm with some of the Iam’s to gradually introduce the new food and avoid stomach upset in my dogs. My dogs actually nosed the Iam’s Lamb & Rice formula OUT of their bowl! And after just a week of feeding, I am already noticing a difference in the fullness of their coats. You may want to do a bit of research yourself.

I wish this included the lamb and rice formula, as from what I know of about dog food and my own experience in feeding it to golden retrievers, is that it would be scored much higher than 2 stars.

Thanks for the helpful replies–another friend recommends California Natural. Of course she has a little terrier. Our boy is an 80 pd blk german shepherd.

casadaly-

there are many brands out there that may help your dog-try looking at the various foods for a hypoallergenic or limited ingredient diet. What works for one, may not work for another-and Iams is not going to “make the cut” for your dog’s itchy skin : )
