The question I have is about their main protein source. I thought I heard/read that it is better for a dog's digestion to only have one main protein source. Something about differing digestion times for beef, vs lamb as an example. Some stomachs might be more sensitive than others, ergo the mushy poops. Anyone else hear anything about this idea?

I personally prefer a dog food that has no grains in it, such as Orijen or Taste fo the Wild. That doens't mean there is anything wrong with feeding a high quality kibble with grain, such as Chicken Soup, if your dog does well on it. THere seems to be so much controversy regarding what is best to feed our dogs- raw or cooked, kibble or canned, grain or grain free, etc. I feed raw to my dogs, but if I had to switch to a kibble, I'd choose either Orijen, Taste fo the Wild or one of the other high quaility grain free kibbles.
