I am new to this forum but not new to cats and not new to grain free food. I feed only grain free, but all grain free is not the same. First, the grain free food causing problems in dogs is that with legumes, or unusual protein sources, or high vegetable protein sources. From what I have heard the problem stems from taurine absorption just like it did with cats many years ago. Vegetable protein does not contain taurine only meat does. And Legumes appear to block taurine absorption. So feed grain free, low vegetable content, no legume, high quality meat foods and you should be ok. I'm not a vet or a nutritionist, just a cat person who does a lot of research.
