I personally like Royal Canin, Hill's Science diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. I have fed Royal Canin and Iams to my pets (cats and dogs), and have found them to be excellent food for them. They will all have a giant breed formula. Acana and Orijen are good brands, but they are quite expensive.

I would say Joey is a large breed dog based on his mix of breeds. I recommend feeing him a high quality large breed dog food. These foods will have joint support, which is great for bigger dogs. Brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. I hope this helps!

Yes, you are correct that there is concern that no grain foods may potentially linked to heart disease, and the FDA is now investigating that. Personally, I recommend feeding Gypsy Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, or Iams. I feed my own dogs Iams and they love it. I hope this helps!

Your best bet is to find a sensitive stomach or GI health formula. Purina and science diet have an over the counter formula. You can also add a probiotic to help. If that does not help then you can try a prescription diet which is more expensive. They have specific easy to digest formula such as science diet ID or Purina EN or you may have to start a food trial. A food trial can be a different food with a single carb and single protein such as duck and potato or rabbit and sweet potato to see if a food allergy is a problem

Interesting question! It can be very difficult to balance all the needs in a dog with a sensitive stomach and I agree a food designed for large breeds is best; you can add additional supplementation such as yumove or arthri-aid omega if required. Many giant breed foods such as royal canin are already supplemented and generally well tolerated in most dogs
