Not sure I agree that lower protein makes the dog grow slower. Ive fed raw to puppies from age 8 weeks to a year. That is pretty much as high a protein as you can get. With all the chemicals sprayed on ingredients, I've often thought of "those chemicals" that cause the fast growth rate not the actual protein. The litter that I tested the raw from age 8 weeks....when they were sold, they were changed over to kibble for the buyers and they started to really grow fast. Less protein in the bagged food, but growth rate really sped up. Hmmm
I fed RC some years back. It was ok...imo there are better foods out there. I went to Petsmart the other day to look at foods. OMG the price is just ridiculous!!!!!! Since when is it ok to sell a 30lb bag of average grain free for $63.00????? I just bought 10lbs of leg quarters for $8.00. And people saw raw is too expensive

Dont ever feed RC GSD Puppy. They just grow too fast resulting in orthopedic problems like UAP and Carpus Valgus (East West). Waste of money

Maya owes her life to Royal Canin Gastro Intestinal Vet Prescription formulation. If it weren't for that food she would not be here today. When her EPI was diagnosed it was the food my vet recommended. Within a few weeks Maya was back on track and had gained 10 pounds.
The feather food, as the Forbes article discusses is not for all dogs. It is recommended for dogs with allergies. People try and try and try to find a food that their dog can tolerate. They think it is the chicken, or that lamb or the rabbit, or the bison, or the beef, and still the dog does not improve.
The purpose of this food is to be able to take the dog off all meat proteins, put the dog on this food and then once the dog has improved, to slowly add back a single protein to try and find the meat protein the dog can tolerate.
This food was not designed as a staple diet, but a vet prescription for a dog that they cannot figure out what it is not tolerating in its food.
Royal Canin spends millions on research for their vet prescription diets.
What I cannot figure out is why they add all the fillers in their non prescription diets. I would not feed a Royal Canin product unless it was a vet prescription food.
I believe in feeding a grain, wheat and soy free limited ingredient diet for a healthy dog. Their regular foods just don't pass the grade with me. JMOO.
