The protein should be fine. With a large breed puppy you always want to know the calcium percentage. If the company doesn't list it you should e-mail them to ask.

You may want to read dogtorj's post about corn, wheat, and barley. They do have health effects other than being highly allergenic.

Anything that is _______ digest is usually not a good thing. And this food has menadione.
