Some of those By products have the natural digestive enzimes in them and that is some of the reason they put those in the kibble. Other than that im not a scientist and I dont use any or either of these foods.

Neither are that good. There were recent posts about how to rate the dog foods, look it up with a search.

Royal Canin. About 3 times a week I'll mix in some raw meat and/or some blended up carrots and/or greens and/or dry cream of wheat, usually w/ their morning meal. (I got 2 pups, so they eat 3 times a day).

They love it and to date I have had no health problems (though one time I put in too many greens and we had a mess cause they had the shits.)
