Eukanuba is an excellent food. In my professional opinion, I don't think you need to worry too much about that 1%. You can add a hard boiled egg to the food for an easy way to add protein, probably once every other day would be fine. Or, ask your vet if he/she has a preference for a supplemental protein source since they made the 30% protein recommendation. Thank your asking Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach !

Hi. Yes Eulanuba is a very high-quality, well-studied pet food. It is well balanced, and has all the right ratios of proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. It is a very well-made dog food. Highly recommend it.

Euknuba is a good food but I think the brand Royal Canin is better. To the best of my knowledge, the brand has not had a recall since 2007 (which is a long time). The diet is also low residue which results in good stool quality and low quantity for most dogs who eat this diet. It is one of the more palatable diets and pets who eat this food generally have nice coats and skin. Please feel free to post any additional questions.

Kibble with high protein content would be correct food for a younger dog (under 2 years of age) who is still growing. Also working dogs that are out herding a lot, or getting a very large amount of exercise, should get a higher protein containing feed. Racing dogs such as greyhounds and whippets are fed a higher protein feed during training so they can make a lot of muscle. Non-working/non-racing dogs need to be fed a lower protein containing food as do dogs with kidney disease.

As far as commercial breeds that come to mind, Wellness would be a good choice to meet your requirements. It is a little pricey, but I feel that it is a very high quality diet. A raw diet would also be an option, but would definitely require a significant amount of financial and time investment (though there are commercially available raw diets as well now). Hope this helps.
