Is dog food any good if the first ingredient is corn grits?

Answer by  katharine (3981)

No. Any dog food that has corn anywhere on the ingredient list is not a good food. Corn is just a filler and doesn't provide any nutritional value for dogs.

No, the first ingredient in any quality dog food should be a protein. Many dogs have trouble digesting corn products. The best quality dog foods will contain no corn products.

No, many dogs are allergic to corn and can develop skin problems, stomach problems and poor skin/coats from a diet high in corn. The best dog foods have little to no corn in them, and the first ingredients are a meat, usually beef or chicken, sometimes even fish and turkey are used in quality dog foods.
