Pro Plan, Eukanuba, Exclusive would be where I would start personally. Not all dogs do well on all foods, so you have to sort of experiment until you find what works for your dogs.

Pretty active is a subjective description. Unless you do a lot of training I would stay away from the performance foods and go with an adult food. I have had good experience with Exclusive Performance and ProPlan Performance but my dogs are worked at least 4 days a week. The Adult versions of these foods are very good and will be probably do you well if you are not training on a regular basis.
