How good is IAMS dog food?

IAMS was founded in 1946 in Ohio, USA; most products sold domestically are now produced by Shanghai Royal Pet Food Co. To meet different ages and sizes, IAMS offers small-breed adult, medium-large breed adult, and large-breed puppy lines. In terms of ingredients, IAMS may fall short of premium standards: its animal protein comes mainly from meat meal, and it adds wheat, barley, wheat flour, rice, and other grains. If your budget allows, a fresh-meat or high-end imported food is preferable.

How good is Jialezhi dog food?

Jialezhi is reportedly developed in Japan and formulated as a complete dog food for the Chinese market. It is divided by life stage into puppy, adult, and senior formulas. However, nutritionally it is not very high: the first two ingredients in every formula are corn and wheat, the animal protein is chicken meal, and corn gluten meal is added to boost crude protein. Its fiber source is beet pulp, a low-value sugar-industry byproduct with anti-nutritional factors, so it should not be overfed.

How good is Youlang dog food?

Youlang was founded in 2013 and is a relatively niche, affordable domestic brand. It has two lines: New Hope Youlang complete dog food and Youlang senior dog food; the New Hope line also comes in 'cooling' and 'coat-care' formulas. Its main advantage is fresh meat as the primary protein source, with no plant protein or legumes added, and fairly complete fiber, minerals, and vitamins. However, it contains several grains (rice, wheat, corn), so it may not suit dogs with sensitive stomachs.
