I also feed Canidae. I did all life stages, until Chet started having a lot of loose stools and the vet recommended changing to a single protein source, so we switched to lamb meal and brown rice. Now, Chet still gets that, but I've switched Leno and Fiona (cairn terrier) back to all life stages, which has chicken, turkey, lamb, and fish. No problem, I'm very pleased with Canidae, and it's a little less expensive than Blue Buffalo.
