Fish based kibble

Per vet instructions I need to switch Bubba's food.

Can anyone give me any suggestions on a good fish based kibble? Must be fish only and can't contain corn, wheat or soy due to allergies. I'd prefer no stool hardeners beet pulp and definitely no menadione (synthetic vit K).

I was going to go with Fromm's Salmon a la veg. But it contains menadione. I did email them though asking if they are going to be removing it from their line of foods. I'm hoping they are.. but if they don't I need to find another kibble.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

This is what we feed our rescues. They freak out for it because the smell is quite strong. We have great sucess with it. We have had a few rescues lately with mange, bacterial infections on their skin and other problems with their coats due to poor care % poor nutrition. They all leave us much healthier, and with super shiny, full coats.

Will be interested in reply from Fromm's. My Eskimo does extremely well on the Salmon A La Veg - has been on it since January 2005 - made a huge difference to his bowel movements and skin. Eskies are very sensitive to corn and somewhat to wheat.

I still haven't recieved a reply from Fromm yet. But I will post it when I get it.

I'm thinking about trying the Eagle Pack Anchvoy, Sardine & Salmon Meal. I'm not too keen on a couple ingredients, but at least there is no menadione in it.

Here's the ingredient list.. in bold are the questionable ingredients. I don't really like that the beet pulp is soo high on the list. But I do like that the first 3 ingredients are fish meals. Lots of fish in this food.

Anchovy, Sardine & Salmon Meals (Preserved with Natural Mixed Tocopherols and Citric Acid), Oatmeal, Ground Brown Rice, Pearled Barley, Menhaden Oil (Preserved with Natural Mixed Tocopherols and Citric Acid), Dried Beet Pulp, Sun-Cured Alfalfa Meal, Air Dried Peas, Brewers Dried Yeast, Dried Egg Product, Flaxseed, Salt, Potassium Chloride, Dried Carrots, Dried Apples, Inulin, Glucosamine Hydrochloride, Dandelion (Organic), Garlic Powder, Yucca Schidigera Extract, DL-Methionine, Vitamin A Acetate, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Vitamin E Supplement, Riboflavin Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement, d-Pantothenic Acid, Niacin Supplement, Choline Chloride, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Thiamine Mononitrate, Folic Acid, Ascorbic Acid, Biotin, Rosemary Extract, Inositol, Dehydrated Kelp, Polysaccharide Complexes (sequestered) of Zinc, Iron, Manganese, Copper and Cobalt, Potassium Iodate, Sodium Selenite, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Enterococcus faecium, B. Subtillus, Bacillus lichenformis, Bacillus coagulins, Aspergillus oryzae and Aspergillus niger.
