My advice is to feed her a Rice and Lamb food.....  If you are cleaning up after her the stools are firm and it makes it easy to clean up.  I have been feeding it for 10 years.  I buy the walmart brand and it does fine for me.  I know they sell it at costco also.  I wouldn't feed anything else but Rice and Lamb.  Its a little more expensive than the other varieties.

I've read most of the replies and some good foods were brought up. Nutro is a pretty good food. It sounds like you found the one you want for your dog. I hope that works for your new lab.

I raise labs and buy my food by the pallet. I use Black Gold and it has been a great food. A lot less waste and a nice gorgeous coat. The dogs love it too.

Good looking dog! This was a great discussion that I hoped helped a lot of people and their four legged friends. Keep us updated on your pup.

I used to buy dog food in the store but have recently switched to feeding him all natural stuff. I met a person that really convinced me this is the way to go.
At night I give him some kind of raw meat. If I am going to eat a steak for dinner I will just give him a steak.
This breeder i talked to feeds his dogs raw chicken on the bone. He buys chicken backs chopped up from a butcher around $24 dollars a case and it will last for a month. Freeze then thaw when needed.
Also he makes a mix that includes Spinach, kale,Carrots,apples, rice, Eggs, oatmeal, vege oil and some meat. Also any veges or fruit  that are going south just add it in. He makes it in a huge bin and it will last 3 months If you are interested drop me a line and I can give you the measurements. My dog at first had a hard time with the transition but i mixed his old dog food in it for a while  and now he loves it.
he does not scoot on the ground anymore his coat is shiner and he has more energy and I thought that was impossible;
If its brown knock it down
