What dog food is good for a Jack Russell?

She is picky. I want to give her the best tasting food. Is there like a dog food that post dogs just love? I have been feeding her chicken breasts. Thats all she wants to eat. Is that good for her?

1. my older shepherd was a real picky eater at first and lord and behold she liked the most expensive food out there try testing them out and see wich one she likes get the small bags so you don't spend so much money and check the ingr.. make sure there good for her type breed jack russels are very active and burn calories faster so try a breed specific if available
2. Use a high quality small breed dry food and try adding wet food to it to make it taste better
3. Wellness is a very good food as is Solid Gold, Taste of the Wild, Innova, Canidae, Blue Buffalo, Eagle Pack Holistic, Natural Balance. Just stay away from grocery store foods and Walmart foods like Purina products and other stuff like that. Go to Petco or a feed store and get a good food with no corn, wheat, by products or soy or gleutens.
4. I feed my two Jacks Natural Balance AMP (Agility, Muscle, Performance) They are young one and two year olds and participate in lure coursing, racing, go to ground and some agility. As a matter of fact we will going to a two day event this weekend. I also give them 1000mg of fish oil each every other day.

6. I think you should try Halo Dog Food - They sell it at Pet Co. I just got a Corgi puppy not too long ago and I was not sure what food to get him since I know how people talk on here about "regular" dog food has a lot of fillers and what not. It is not that easy to come by those Great but Expensive dog foods (Innova, EVO, etc.) where I'm located so I happened to come across Halo Dog Food. It is a natural dog food and has a lot of high quality ingredients - vitamins, protein, vegtables, eggs, meat, etc. A 3 lb bag runs around $10, which is not bad - my dog likes it a lot. Also, Ellen Degeneres endorses and now owns a portion of the company but I didn't know that until after I started using it.
7. I'd say Beneful. It has all the nutrients a dog needs and its really yummy. When Mandy came into our home, she wouldn't eat the food they fed to her in the shelter, that is why she didn't gain any weight (she was living on the streets, so of course she was underweight). We bought her beneful and she pounces on that like it's her job! As for chicken breasts, it's OK but not great. It doesn't give her all the nutrients.
8. Nutro Ultra. It has three meats (Salmon, Chicken, Lamb). She will appreciate that and the fruits and vegetables in it. Petco and Petsmart has it, as do top pet stores. Chicken breasts are not good for her to eat. Its like feeding her junk food. She is picky due to this.
