After much swapping and changing over 2 years I've tried the following:
Supadog Lamb and Rice
CSJ That'll Do CSJ Herbie Rings CSJ Command Performance 24
Nutro Lamb and Rice
Royal Canin Junior (when Pepper was a puppy)
Arden Grange Chicken and Rice Arden Grange Lamb and Rice
Now I feed either Arden Grange Lamb and Rice or CSJ Command Performance 24 as the dried food (depending if I can find an offer on AG when I need it). With both dogs doing a high impact activity (flyball) I like to provide a joint suppliment (which both foods contain)
Kye is a pain for dropping weight at the slightest change (pepper is the other way!). I AIM to have him around 35kg, and we were at 34.5kg end of Jan... but when he got weighed last time at hydrotherapy, he was down to 32.3kg. He also has to have supper, or he has too much stomach acid and is sick.
Kye gets:
morning: 120g AG lamb and rice 345g naturediet - will be dropping this to 150g shortly, was this high to get some weight back on him)
tea: 395g raw mince chicken wings/drumsticks (or whatever I've managed to scrounge from a friend with a farm shop)
Supper: 70g AG lamb and rice
Pepper gets:
morning: 20g CSJ That'll do 20g Ag lamb and rice 45g naturediet
Tea: 100-120g raw - less mince if we have bones in
Supper: 10g CSJ That'll do 10g Ag lamb and rice
In addition they also get a tin of sardines once a week
just to make things complicated! lol

I use here for both my dogs and any rescues in:
CSJ Natural Champ or Chappie Complete (if I havnt had chance to get to supplier of CSJ)
Both been excellent for dogs with iffy stomachs when they come in. My dogs also seem to love it. Very simple foods in fairness but good for them and cheap too

Well as we have different breeds that need different things from there food this is what we feed and feel is the best for our dogs.
Siberian Huskies as a breed need a high protein food (and as my dogs are working Siberian huskies there diet is very important)
So they get Arden Grange Prestige (30% protein) in the working season and AG premium (26% protein) in the summer months.
Our Dalmatians are fed on skinners maintenance (18% protein) working dog food. As Dalmatians as a breed should be fed a low protein diet to prevent stone forming, also you should always add water to a Dalmatians food.
Now my little Papillion is fed pedigree small dog food (as it is all he will eat)
and lastly my daughters Afghan hound is fed AG puppy.
We also give all our dogs some raw food (i.e bones, chicken carrcass, and so on) about 3 to 4 x's a week

Sari has a sensitive tum and Baz gets itchy, have tried JWB and Arden Grange, but have settled on mix of CSJ Salmon + Herbie nuts adding a bit of Chappie Chicken and they have been much improved CSJ have a great delivery service and you can also build up loyalty points to set off against future purchases or donate to a charity. Excellent food and good value.
