Grain-free kibble what's good nowadays?

How about Evo?  I recently put one of my dogs on Evo and he is doing well, stool wise, it hasn't been very long so I can't say whether his coat and skin will improve.  He is on the Turkey and chicken small bites.  It is very high calorie so he is getting almost half the amount of his previous food.

Not entirely grain free, but I just put Thunder on Wilderness by Blue Buffalo to put a few extra pounds on him for the winter.  It's 42% protein, 90% of that from meat.  It does have a bit of oatmeal, but for Thunder, that's a good thing.

 Orijen!  I do love the Orijen for my dogs, especially the "6 Fresh Fish" variety. 

Other grain frees in our rotation include Fromm and EVO.

Jewel had to come off Evo reduced fat because there were too many Kcals and her weight was climbing so I have her on Taste of the Wild Pacific Stream.They also have Bison and wetland fowl formulas.Fromm is made here in Wisconsin and they are a very reputable company,surf and turf is their only grain-free food though.

I second Orijen, my dogs do their best on that food. I also like the results on Core.

We are using EVO red meat at the moment, and the dogs are really gassy -- enough that I might start adding more canned so the kibble isn't the basis of the diet until this bag runs out. Their stool is fine, but I can't imagine that they feel very good. I do know other people on the board love EVO and don't have issues with gas.

I feed EVO canned, mixed in with Casey's Blue Buffalo kibble. We have no poop issues, and no gas issues.

Blue Buffalo is REALLY good for dogs with skin issues - it really has helped Casey's. My coworked put her Beagle on it, and her skin is vastly imporved and she's not itchy anymore.

As for grain free- I love Orijen. I would love to switch, but we're doing so well, I'm hesitant.

I just switched to Fromm Surf & Turf. It's too early to tell results, but Gingerbread loved it and the kibble even looks good to me!

I'm sorry to hear that! Lily and Abbie do get gassy when I switch from one to the other, but that only lasts for about a week. I just switch from red meat to poultry cold turkey, which is why they probably get gassy.

 Rascal's done well on Innova EVO but gained too much weight (very unusual for him). He's also done well on Wellness Core (both the fish and non-fish varieties), and now is on Solid Gold Barking at the Moon. All of them have worked pretty well for him - we tend to switch around a good bit because the picky little bugger gets bored quickly.

Another vote for Orijen here! It's been in our rotation for over a year now (both the fresh fish and the regular adult), and Poseidon does great on it.

 If you can find it in your area, another good one is Great Life. It's grain and potato free, and has a dehydrated raw coating on it.

 We also do EVO red meat occasionally.
