Carrots:Brown Rice Only: Rice grain with the bran portion intact, an excellent source of carbohydrates. Contains increased levels of B vitamins. Potatoes: Rich in potassium and an excellent source of highly digestible carbohydrates for energy. Skin and Coat, Omega 3 and Omega 6: Lecithin, linoleic acid, whole grain flaxseed, vitamin E, biotin, and kelp are combined to result in an excellent skin and coat.

Seems good for Purines December 31, 2006

Tastes good & is good for him!
My Dalmatian (11 years old) has had problems with bladder stones caused by purines (the same amino acid that causes gout). If he's forming the stones, he will start bleeding slightly after he has peed (bladder stone are a real danger for Dalmatians and sometimes their urinary tracts get completely clogged like his once did, requiring emergency surgery).
Dick Van Patten's Vegetarian Natural Balance has not caused any purine related problems. I would recommend it for Dalmatians. I think because it is vegetarian, it has fewer purines than meat based dog foods.
He likes it too!
Our dog has a sensitive stomach and digests this well August 18, 2006

It is very hard to find a vegetarian dog food in general. This one is very easy to digest. Our Siberian husky has a sensitive stomach. Other high quality, meat-based dog foods gave him A LOT of gas. We mix Natural Balance with cooked ground beef in water and he loves his meals.
