Any problems with Wellness Duck/Sweet Potato?

My 2-year-old Golden Retriever has had diahrrea on and off the past several days and my husband has noted that it seems to happen when he gives her the Wellness Sweet Potato and Duck canned food. Our other dog, small and a pickier eater, has lately declined to eat this particular food when it's served.

I checked the bottom of the can, which says "best by 26 September 2011" so it's not expired.

I Google searched the brand for awhile and only found good reviews and recommendations for this brand, so am puzzled as to what the problem may be but it seems to be the only consistent trigger for her problems.

Has anyone else noticed issues with this food?

Thanks.

Wellness food, in general, has more fat than some brands. You could first try another Wellness food but a different protein. I would suggest limiting the fish ones as fish is high in magnesium which can lead to crystals. Plus the high levels of mercury in fish isn't too favourable. Don't eliminate it, just limit it.
