No no no!! I've posted about this earlier. Grain free dry food is not much better! Something cooked up in a rendering plant and no one knows what the long term effects are. Meal meal is replacing grain here and it is so much worse. Meat meal is a tar left over by boiling chicken carcasses, feathers, beaks etc and then dried into a powder. This is definitely not better than rice or oats - how can it be? If you look at the protein levels of grain free dry food they are toxically high and so is the fat level. Protein should be around 20% and fat 10% max.

There is a world of difference between fresh meat and meat meal.

However most dry foods are a combo of meat meal and wheat - neither is good. Best to feed a small amount of dry and look around for a good quality wet food.
