Rice is better than other grains used in some dog foods but really dogs shouldn't eat grains they're carnivores not omnivores and in my opinion the main ingredient in any dog food should be meat. A dog digestive system isn't designed for carbohydrates.

Having said that burns is a good quality commercial food it just has a low meat content.

Iams uses by-products, controversial filler and low quality grains as well as having a low meat content, not a good mix!
