Had the same issue, as the op, loads of turds when the dog, Brian, below was on Bakers however moved him onto Skinners, which has improved the situation, his coat looks better and has a more relaxed nature to him, not hyper any more. Also he now eats less due to the food being better quality and therefore less turds. When on bakers he wasn't interested in food an now he eats his meals in one sitting.

+1 Arden Grange. Alfie and Charley eat it well, poo ok and they have excellent shiny coats, Alfie went qiute scurfy when we changed to Autarky for a bit, so went back to AG. Not worth going cheap and Arden is about 30-35 quid a 15kg bag. So not excessive.

A number of the large brands do animal testing. If this is important to you, apprently Arden don't.
My boxer Ralph eats Royal Canin sensitivity control 60 quid for a 14kg bag. Very expensive but its transformed his guts.

The stuff he used to be on would run right thru him.
Chocolate is one of the most hazardous foods to dogs. "The compounds in chocolate that cause toxicosis are caffeine and theobromine, which belong to a group of chemicals called methylxanthines," according to ASPCA Virtual Pet Behaviorist website. Dark baker's chocolate has higher levels of methylxanthines than white chocolate. Therefore, the darker the chocolate is, the more it is toxic.
