What to feed?

[BuzzLightyear]

I have a 2 year old (very) energetic boxer.
He is out at a dog day care facility for 8 hours per day and doesn't stop whilst he is there.
I've been feeding him Purina Beta Active but have just noticed that there is a relatively high fat content in it (16%).

As a boxer with aeortic stenosis i'm not keen to clog up his arteries with a high fat food.

Any one have any recommendations (James Wellbeloved/ SciencePlan and Royal Canin dont agree with him) for a high protein food for an active dog?

I have been advised that Beta can cause hyperactivity!!!

It was suggested that Skinners was a very good food, but that was by a Skinners rep

Several people on here feed skinners though and I have not heard bad things about it

I used to feed beta and for 7 of his 8 years Zak has had spotty skin on his back..... have fed JWB since feb and its all gone

Might try skinners as JWB is hideously expensive

Burns is fantastic, it has no 'crap' in it and our dogs look fab on it!
