Very broadly, there are two things you need to look at with
dog food, 1) nutrition, and 2) ingredients. I tend to think
that pet dog owners tend to pay attention to the second but
not as much to the first. When you're preparing your dog's
diet, are you paying attention to nutrition (macronutrients
and micronutrients)?

I tend to think we create many of our own problems with our
dogs, including fussy eating habits.

Could be. Maybe, maybe not.
