Your post does not make sense. I think you are listening to too many sources, some not reliable. The AAFCO https://www.aafco.org/ does the best they can to regulate what goes into dog food.
When you go out to eat at a restaurant, do you know what the quality of the food you are eating is?
No. As long as there is enough salt and butter added to it, most people think it’s wonderful!
And they pay big bucks!
PS: At the end of the day, I have found that having a vet that you trust and that knows your dog (annual exams, at least) is the best person to advise you in these matters.
