What do you all think about these foods?

 Meal meat is dehydrated.  So chicken meal is more highly concentrated than just chicken, etc.  Its better.  Umm.... lets see, if you take the ingredient list of any food, the first ingredient listed must have the highest volume in the food.  So you could list chicken, but because it is mostly water, the next ingredient may very well outweigh chicken in the product after dehydration.  IF however, you have chicken meal, rather than just chicken, it will be the main ingredient since it has no water... or very little water.  Does that make sense?

One other thing.  Those percentages seem high to me.  Particularly the fat%.  My friends dogs get 22% but they are hard core sled dogs.  That much fat and my dogs would end up with bloody stools.  Most mushers keep there dogs at 22-26% during the mushing season and go down lots during off season, when they are still running miles a day.  Just something to think about. 

 Ok thanks for the info on the meal question I had.  So I should look for a food that has alot of protein but not so much fat? God I dotn want her to have bloody stools just need her to put on weight. Right now I am trying wellness original core. If I write the dog food people do you think they will send me samples of their food?

 Ok i found another dog food then that looks better. Should I give it a try?

 It doesn't look bad to me.

As for the comment I made on the fat... Please do some research on it.  It may be that Irish Setter's need more fat than huskies.  I do alot of research on nutrition, but I center it on my own dogs.  Huskies are alot different from Setters.  Different bone structure, stature, gait... the list goes on and on.  But huskies are also unique in their nutritional requirements.  Lillie may very well need more fat...  That last food you posted though, looks pretty good.

 I just looked at the Pinnacle website and on the front of the bag of food I ordered is 2 Irish Setters. I thought that was pretty neat. They had a new dog food on their site that I ordered also. I'm gonna mix the two up and feed her that way. Wish me luck on yet another dog food change!
 

From the first post, those are all good kibbles.  I've tried EVO and Barking at the Moon, but they are too rich for Kenya.  Both my dogs eat Nature's Variety and do fine.
