The best foods are ones that have good quality and whole meats in (labelled as: Chicken, Turkey, Beef, Lamb, etc.) as the first or first two on the ingredients list. It is ideal to stay away from brands that include "filler" ingredients such as Cereal, Corn, Wheat or Soy as these offer no nutrition to a dog. Rice can be an acceptable ingredient (if your dog can digest it), but is generally considered that the quantity of meat should be more than the quantity of rice in the food.

Make sure you choose a tasty, healthy, trustworthy brand! If you are talking about if it's better to choose dry or wet food, you have to think about it carefully to suit your dog. Some dogs will prefer dry food or wet food, or a mixture of both. Dry food can contain a higher grain content, which is not beneficial for a dog. It also can be dehydrating and doesn't help much regarding dental health. Kibble pieces are too hard and brittle and break apart too easily to offer any tooth cleaning benefits.

Wet food is easier to find with no grains or other fillers, and has a high moisture content which keeps the dog hydrated.

Some of the best brands are:

Eagle Pack Pet Food Company, Orijen, EVO, Blue Buffalo, Canidae, Wainwrights, NatureDiet.
