Both my dogs are on Canidae for All Life Stages, and doing well.  Neither
of them had any trouble with the changeover, as I recall, though it was a
long time ago.  My roughly 55-pound dogs are eating 2 cups a day, if that
helps.

People speak well of the Pawpower Creations harnesses, and they also sell
collars.  I think LDS Leather also sells harnesses, but I think they're
more expensive.
sitstay.com also has collars and leashes, and clothes too, I think. 
Though, in my experience, a lab only needs maybe a raincoat, possibly
boots, and possibly a sweater or something, if it gets really cold.  I
think Ben's worn his sweater maybe twice in 4 years.
HTH.
