Is grain in pet food good or not?

Amoré offers 2 types of dog food with grains and 6 with none! Twelve years ago, I tried to remove the two foods that contained grains: Beef with Oats and Chicken with Brown Rice. Boy did I an earful from customers! In talking with them, I discovered that they wanted us to keep making them. We’ve found out that dogs that have trouble putting on or keeping their weight do exceptionally well with these formulas. The carbs help with keeping the weight on; I know from my own personal experience! Many of the pet parents I spoke with had aging pets or pets undergoing cancer treatments and this was the only food that helped their dogs.
