One of the most consistently recommended grain-free kibbles in dog food communities, using novel proteins like bison and salmon with no corn, wheat, or soy. Widely available, reasonably priced for a premium grain-free option, and has a long track record with owners of dogs with grain sensitivities.
If your dog genuinely needs grain-free due to a sensitivity, Taste of the Wild is the go-to — it's been around long enough to have a real track record and owners in forums consistently report improved digestion and coat quality.
“Only switch to it if your dog has an allergy or sensitivity to grains. I had 2 yorkies previously who were extra sensitive to grains which would cause diarrhea so had to switch.”

“If you are going to go grain free, watch out for legumes in the ingredient list. There is mounting evidence that it can lead to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).”

“Some grain free foods are associated with DCM. These are ones that include pulses (chickpeas, peas, lentils etc.) as a substitute for grains. The problem isn't grain free foods, its what some brands substitute grains with.”
