Is this a good food to feed my dogs?

I am using Butchers tinned mixed with Purina one (dried) for my Maltese terriers. I want to feed my little dogs well, so I have looked on the internet but I can't find anything bad about these dog foods so does this mean they are OK?

Are these in the 'good quality' dog food group? Or are they in the same sort of group along with pedigree chum etc?

Thanks for your replies.

Update:

What is wrong with them? Butchers say in the adverts that their foods are 100% natural? Isn't that good? I buy Purina one as it's quite expensive so I though that would be good too.

    PURINA IS A VERY GOOD PET FOOD COMPANY. There is NOTHING wrong with Purina. Butchers tinned sounds shady but consider this... Purina Brand dog food is used in large proportion of veterinary clinics (which tells you something).

    The age of your dogs is important as nutritional needs change throughout a dog's life. For a middle aged, healthy dog, Purina One is an excellent, well-balanced diet for your dogs.

    If you want a good quality dog food then try Beneful Healthy Harvest because Beneful Healthy Harvest has protein and everything else that is important to a dog's diet.

    Also, try Iams. Keep the Purina One dog food because that is okay for dogs. If you get Beneful Healthy Harvest you can mix Purina One in with the Beneful.

    Any type of Beneful dog food is good for dogs.

    Dogs can also eat certain types of meat but they can not eat fatty meat. Dogs can eat chicken and turkey. Never feed your dog ribs, fish, or ham.

    I hope this helps!

    Good Luck!!!!

    Canidae is very good and usually priced under some of the premium foods.

    Not good food. Have a look at this website...click on products and than dry food, or raw whatever interests you. These are all good food for your dog.
