Tastes good & is good for him!
My Dalmatian (11 years old) has had problems with bladder stones caused by purines (the same amino acid that causes gout). If he’s forming the stones, he will start bleeding slightly after he has peed (bladder stone are a real danger for Dalmatians and sometimes their urinary tracts get completely clogged like his once did, requiring emergency surgery).
Dick Van Patten’s Vegetarian Natural Balance has not caused any purine related problems. I would recommend it for Dalmatians. I think because it is vegetarian, it has fewer purines than meat based dog foods.
He likes it too!

It is very hard to find a vegetarian dog food in general. This one is very easy to digest. Our Siberian husky has a sensitive stomach. Other high quality, meat-based dog foods gave him A LOT of gas. We mix Natural Balance with cooked ground beef in water and he loves his meals.

I’ve recently switched my two boys over to Natural Balance Vegetarian Formula after doing quite a bit of research. Out of the TWO (yes count them, TWO) vegetarian formulas that I could find at Petsmart or Petco, this one has the best ingredients. Nothing on the “no” list (CORN, WHEAT, etc). The only thing that is troubling to me is that it is Petco exclusive, if you are buying it in a big chain store. Other than that, no complaints. I will update my review in a few months if there are any changes, but so far so good. The dogs like the food and coming from Blue Buffalo Wilderness, I feel that we are making a lateral change in premium foods. The only real difference is I don’t have to worry about by products or meat “seconds.”

This is an excellent high quality food for any dog. Dogs can be perfectly healthy on a vegetarian diet, and this food is a great option for vegetarian owners, or for dogs with allergies or issues with meat. Two of our dogs have been eating this for a few years now, and they are perfectly healthy and love it! They have very soft and shiny coats, are full of energy, and have nice stools. They had very soft stools when they were on another vegetarian dog food brand. Willi (border collie mix) used to be quite picky with his food, we sometimes had to sprinkle something on it so he’d eat it, but not with this food! He eats it up right away. I just wish our french bulldog could also eat it, but she has some sort of food allergies to it.
