Is there a list available of grain free puppy kibble? I'm currently feeding Barking At The Moon to my older dog. I have a new pup arriving tomorrow. Barking At The Moon is not available in a puppy version.

I believe Orijen has a grain free puppy kibble. Taste of the Wild has grain free for all life stages. You might check out Evo also and Royal Canin. I don't know if it's necessary to feed puppy kibble specifically.
Edited to add: Not sure which has grain free but wanted to throw some names out there for you.

Thanks Sandy - Orijen does have puppy kibble. There is no local dealer in my area so with shipping it comes to about $75 a bag. I found Taste Of The Wild locally. I hope they stock the puppy version. Do you know if it is a descent kibble?

Lee, I don't think there is a puppy version with Taste of the Wild. It says the kibbles support "all life stages". Like I said, I don't know that a puppy kibble is necessary. You could compare other puppy kibble (the guaranteed analysis section) with Taste of the Wild analysis and see if there's any great difference. My guess is there won't be any. Ingredient-wise, it sounds very good, but I don't have personal experience with it. One of the forum members feeds it sometimes and says her dogs go crazy for it.

Hi Lee:
Here is Ed’s list of “All Natural” kibbles. I personally use Canidae kibble for all our dogs, even the pup. But check out Ed’s list which you may find informative.
I don't buy in to the puppy-stage dog food. Adult food usually works just fine, but if you are unsure, there are brands of food that market themselves as 'all-life stages'.
My pup is raw-fed, but I still enjoy researching kibble. I feed her dry once in a while, to avoid stomach upsets when we travel. But she has been off kibble for about 2 weeks now, as I am trying to test for food allergies.
Taste of the Wild Pacific Stream is a good grain-free kibble for puppies. The protein percentage is not as high as say, Evo or Origen, or the other TOTW varieties. I have read that it is ideal to keep protein levels below 26% and above 22%.
Fromm also has a grain-free surf-and-turf that isn't as high (30%) as well, but might still be a little rich for puppies.
