For whatever its worth I know a few people here use RC Boxer 26 and many that are on Canidae really stick by it. Recently I wrote to RC and asked them about the concerns everyone voices like the corn and high protien content. Here was there response. I felt it was very good service which took them less than a day to respond.
"Thank you for contacting Royal Canin. We are delighted to hear of your interest in Royal Canin. In regards to your question, food provides three sources of energy: fat, carbohydrates and protein. We choose the optimal levels of fat in our diet based on the needs of the breed. Also fat is a nutrient that includes oil such as Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Fat also improves the palatability of the food, making it more acceptable for your pet. In regards to your question concerning corn, we use corn gluton meal in some of our products. Corn gluton meal means that the protein itself is extracted from the grain. We use corn gluton meal in some of our diets because it is highly digestible. Also it serves as an excellent source of amino acids. It is rich in amino acids methionine and cystine. In regards to the Boxer 26 it does not contain corn gluton meal. The Boxer is a highly energetic dog that is always on the move requiring a diet that supports its active lifestyle. In the Boxer 26 there is, L-Carnitine, a higher energy content and controlled protein levels to help burn fat and build and maintain lean muscle mass.
