Royal Canin seems to work great for my dog.

I know it good, but I'm asking about the breed specific foods..like for labs, GSD, bulldogs, and I think there's a poodle one too...anyone know if their good or not?

Just marketing propaganda if you ask me...have you noticed that the breed specific diets are made for the most popular breeds? Just another way for the food company to make money off of people.

Some of the principles they apply to breed specific food make a lot of sense, others don't.

If the ingredient quality were better, I'd be more inclined to recommend it to my clients, but there are better options.
