Unless your dog is going to end up way oversized, I'd just use a regular puppy food, or all-stages food.

I personally am a big fan of Orijen....

Here is a good website for finding a good kibble IMO

Dog Food Analysis

bahamutt is right you don't need "large" breed and an All Life Stages is a good way to go!

Orijen was one I looked at but a guy at the feed store compaired the chicken soup and other ones and it was compairable and about half the price.Going to look now at analysis I know one of those is where I found socket food.

I don't know many who feed Chicken Soup, but I've heard good things about it.

From what I saw on the analysis website, the difference in price, is because Orijen (6*) is double the quality than Chicken Soup (3*). I'm not sure if I was looking at the right "Chicken Soup" brand, but they mentioned Diamond in the reviews, and the use of Ethoxyquin as a preservative in the past, supposedly not being used anymore though.

http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_reviews/showproduct.php?product=908&cat=all
thats the link to the one I will use prior I had Large breed

http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/dog_food_reviews/showproduct.php?product=888&cat=5 I think thats what you was looking at and i agree thats not worth much. I like the one above this link but I never used it just the large breed one. Any dog food readers? I could use some help

You're right, I looked at the wrong place hammer I had looked at the part that said Reviews, and there was 3, so I thought that was the rating, lol. In that case it does appear to be good, and not double the quality, however, because it's made by Diamond, I wouldn't buy it.
