Solid Gold(R) Introduced as the first "natural" dog food in the United States and known for specializing in the development of "non-allergenic" products, Solid Gold(R) has been a fore-runner in premium, holistic pet nutrition for more than three decades. This dry dog food is developed using only premium quality, natural ingredients, and only USDA choice meats. Solid Gold(R) MMillennia(R) Adult Dry Dog Food MMillennia(R) is a Beef and Barley adult dog food that is excellent for sporting and performance dogs.
