Directions
Adult Dog Feeding Instructions: The recommended feeding amounts indicated are based upon the average nutritional needs of an adult dog with normal activity (using a standard 8 oz/250mL measuring cup, which contains approximately 96g of Purina ONE). Factors, such as a dog’s metabolism, breed size, activity level, age and whether the dog is spayed or neutered, will affect the amount of Purina ONE needed to maintain an ideal body condition. The pet experts at Purina have provided the feeding amounts indicated as a starting point. If you find that your dog is losing weight or becomes overweight when fed these amounts, please adjust accordingly. To help your dog maintain an ideal body condition, monitor your dog’s weight on a regular basis, making sure that his ribs are easily felt and the waist is visible when viewed from above. Maintaining an ideal body condition can impact your dog’s lifelong health. No Supplements Necessary: Purina ONE provides 100% complete and balanced nutrition. There is no need to add vitamins, minerals or other supplements, unless specifically directed by a veterinarian. Making the Switch to Purina ONE: Although you’ll be anxious to see the difference Purina ONE can make in your dog, please allow 7-10 days to ease the transition from his current food and a little more Purina ONE until you’re feeding Purina ONE exclusively. This gradual transition will help avoid dietary upsets. Fresh Water, Proper Diet & Veterinary Care: Be sure to provide fresh water in a clean container for your dog daily. Proper diet, exercise and veterinary care are the best ways to keep your dog healthy. If your dog hasn’t had a check-up in the past year, please make an appointment today. Store in a cool, dry place.

Seems to be a good food and she is doing well. I'm not sure why 'no-grain' has caused problems.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration thinks there may be a link to canine dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and certain breeds are more susceptible:
Retriever
Boxer
Chinese Shar-Pei
Cocker Spaniel
Collie,
Dachshund
Dalmatian
Lhasa Apso
Miniature Schnauzer
Soft Coated Wheaton Terrier
Springer Spaniel
West Highland White Terrier
If your dog doesn't show signs of allergy, then single grain may be the way to go; some vets are opposed to grain-free because of the risk of DCM. No one seems to know why some dogs may have gotten sick on grain-free foods; my guess is that the legumes in some recipes ( peas, chickpeas, lentils, soybeans) have hemagglutinins that affect the blood and cause cardiac issues over time. There were some papers years ago about antibodies in heart patients reacting to hemagglutins (back when I was in grad school for immunology in the seventies) so it's possible that cardiomyopathy in dogs has a similar etiology. We'll see.
