Corn and other stuff not for dogs

I read this and just have to join in, since corn IS not a good food for dogs: it is very high glycemic index, it is very empty in terms of quality nutrition, and I am sorry to sound ironic, but to quote Dr. Guindon whom I visited once (homeopathic vet, also advisor of this board): " you have a dog, not a cow. And you are under nourishing your dog with the Hills PD you are using". Although some veggies (quality veggies!!) are important to dogs, if the first ingredients listed are all vegetable based (e.g. corn) and worse, bad-cheap-vegetable based (like SD is, as well as many Hills products or other commercial products) then you are under-nourishing your dog and he is lacking important quality animal proteins. He introduced me to Wellness and also taught me how to read labels.

I would love him to voice his opinion on these matters, as I found he had great information, good knowledge and once he told me his opinion, it made " horse sense", or "dog sense" in this case.
