Here is a site that will show you which dog foods are the best and the worst. I suggest that you get any one of the dog foods that are top rated.

Most of grocery store dog food formulas, like IAMS, Pedigree, Science Diet, Purina,and etc contain "meat and bone meal" which has been known to contain dead dogs and cats that were euthanized in animal shelters. Their bodies are picked up and bought by the truck load by "rendering plants" , that also pick up road kill, dead live stock, and etc. They are shredded, and boiled. They skim off the fat on the top of the "soup" and collected it and sell it to pet food companies as "animal fat", the rest of the animals' remains are crushed up, dried and sold to dog and cat food companies as meat and bone meal.
You can read more about it here.

Here is an article where the owner of a rendering plant talks about it. He says that cremating the dead shelter animals would cause pollution, and that rendering them is good.

Try a holistic brand such as eagle pack, solid gold, nutro ultra holistic. They are expensive but I think spending extra to make my dog better is worth the money. Than going to the vet to medication.

Want to know the beauty of high quality food? You don't have to feed your dog as much of it, so it pays for itself after awhile! Purina is crap, so I would look at Canidae.

I'm glad you can still afford a laptop and a high speed internet connection.
