:Wellness, Canidae, and Natural Balance.
:

Your dog may end up making the final decision though -- I've known dogs that have done terrible on the Wellness and also on the Canidae -- I don't know too many that have tried the Natural Balance.

I've never been fond of the Wellness because I don't like the grains in it, but lots of dogs seem to do very well on it. I would try to get samples of all three and see how your dog reacts. For years my dog would not be very enthusiastic about foods with chicken in it -- years later I discovered that she's highly allergic to it, so it's good that I trusted her instincts. Since those are all good foods, I would take into consideration your dog's preference. My prefernce might be the Natural Balance.
