I don’t know what kind of dog food it is, but the dog is white and he pops out from behind the food at the very end. There is a pink background. The dog is very small and white. He has short curly hair and he is sooo adorable!

Dogs. They are our pets, our best friends, and the one set of ears that will never pretend to ignore us. Due to the fact that they are such great companions, it is clear why owners always want the best for their furry friends. After all, they do resemble a human being, thus it is reasonable to feed them the healthiest foods and purchase a plethora of unused toys. While top notch pet food is available in every store, it can be perplexing to try and find the healthiest product. With so many factors taken into consideration, the percentages and ingredients become mind boggling. So how does one pick dog food out of the thousands of brands?

The first thing a pet owner should know is that affordable brands don’t always mean that it is better. As we all know, dogs are like humans and they need their nutrition. Most dog food brands make sure that ingredients include meats, proteins, and fibers. However, there are those that focus on affordability rather than nourishment, which is why many animals begin to face problems. In order for your pet to have a healthy diet, you must find a food brand that incorporates protein, such as steak, chicken, or another type of meat. Additionally, these types of food should also have vitamins and minerals in them. Though dogs are much different than human beings – they still require nutrients that keep them healthy and feeling great. If you are hesitant on a certain brand, chances are there may be a problem. It is recommended that you either consult the company itself, or perhaps find a book on healthy dog food. These resources will easily help you eliminate the brands that are more concerned with money.

Are you still unsure of what you’re feeding your dog? Many pet owners simply run to their veterinarians, hoping that they will have a speedy answer. Fortunately, they can recommend many different brands – one which will hopefully be affordable and still beneficial for your dog. Although some people feel that professionals will just try to steer them in the “expensive” direction – perhaps food that is sold in their office, this is not necessarily true. A vast majority of veterinarians are concerned and want to make sure your dog is in top shape.

Luckily, there are other alternatives to healthy dog food, if you are just not pleased with the products. Recently, pet owners are beginning to take matters into their own hands. Since resources are booming, people can now cook their own dog food. That’s right – no more instantaneous trips to the pet store. Since dogs love meat and vegetables, it is easy to find them a balanced diet. Many people are actually adding chicken to their dog’s kibble or attempting to make beef cookies and dog food stew. Astonishingly, there are many health food websites catered to dog food, which will tell you exactly what to add to your dog’s meal and which recipes are popular. Given that we treat our animals as if they were our human companions, it is no surprise that we are now feeding them the same way.

I am currently just giving my dog Iams. I know it isn’t the best food so I am looking to find an excellent dog food for her. I heard that high protein and low in things like corn and rice is good.

I just adopted a new dog and my dog will not stop eating all of the food. They both free-feed so I leave the food out all day but its clear that only one dog is getting fed…What can I do to make sure they both eat sensible amounts? My orginal dog has gained weight because she insist on eating all of the food…HELP?

My wife and I were wondering why he’s barely eating his food, yet is taking massive, uh, poops. Then this morning we noticed that we’re re-filling the cat food bowl MUCH more frequently than usual. My wife suggested just feeding him cat food, but it seems that dog food is formulated specifically for dogs, and vise-versa.

Serious answers only, please. Answers such as tape his snout shut, a .30-06 from about 20 feet, or fill his mouth with expanding foam insulation won’t help us much. Thanks.

I feel my new puppy Wellness dog food – dry and wet. She only gets a tablespoon of wet a meal, and half a cup dry. But I was wondering, since it’ll take us about two weeks to get through the can if not more, when does it go bad?
Forgot to say we have one of those pet food lids, the cheap plastic things you press over them.

Every time we eat dinner, he climbs up on our laps and begs for human food. We try to make him eat his dog food but he doesn’t. The only time he would eat dog food is when we hand feed it to him but most of the time he wouldn’t. We try to hand feed him his hard food but he never takes it.

What can i do to make him eat his dog food again without hand feeding him?

In fact, commercial dog food contains at least 6 deadly chemicals that have been banned from human foods because they cause: kidney cancer, bladder cancer, skin cancer, stomach cancer, spleen cancer, leukemia, liver dysfunction, major organ failure, immune system collapse, severe allergic reactions, birth defects, blindness, chronic diarrhea, hair loss and behavior problems, including increased aggressiveness – very dangerous if your dog is around children.

Today our pets have a wide variety to meet their tastes and needs and we have our choice of what kind of food we can choose to feed them. Despite the variety, pet foods usually fall into three major categories.

First. Grocery store foods, these types of dog and pet foods are usually found in grocery stores and mass marketed retailers and can contain lower quality, less expensive ingredients.

Second. “premium dog foods,” which can also be found in grocery’s stores but are also found in pet stores and through your local veterinarian’s office.

Third. Homemade dog food. More and more people are beginning to make their dog’s food at home rather than buying commercial formulas.

Nature recipe dog food was developed by pet owners who became wary when it came to the off-the-shelf dog food debacle. At first only a few dog food brands were recalled. However the recall list grew to include well-known brands such as Alpo, America’s choice/Preferred Pet, Award, Big Bet, Big Red and countless more. There is also a long list of cat foods that were recalled at last.

If you want to save your dog from the horrific death suffered by hundreds of other dogs in your local area, probably in the last year alone, then you MUST follow these 3 steps:



Stop using commercial dog food as your dog’s only or main source of food.

Learn how to read commercial dog food labels.

Get some healthy, well-balanced nature recipe dog food and start feeding your dog home made food.
