if I did you understand, you want to get an IP address by DHCP, but do not
want to change dns? Then the entry in /etc/network/interfaces is correct.
If you want to get changed it by DHCP, install the package resolveconf, then
you get a sysmlink in /etc/resolfconf to a file, which is always overwritten by
DHCP-server.
You can also create a staticfile /etc/resolve.conf, where you can write your
nameservers in. This file will never be overwritten.
Did this help? If not, feeel free to ask more.
Best regards
Hans
