People rarely talk about it, BUT, commercial dog food is killing our best friends. Dog food recalls are kept hush, hush. You don't hear about it until you go to make a purchase and find your brand has been recalled.
Most people have no idea what they're really feeding their dogs. They also don't understand the benefits of natural dog food. If you knew that natural dog food would improve your pet's health would you change it? Hear are some reasons to make the change.
Because there are so many stories about young dogs, 4 to 7 years old, that have died due to the poisons in commercial dog food I felt it necessary to write this article to give all dog lovers the real 411.
Out of the 570 ingredients used in commercial dog food, 68 ingredients are potentially lethal. Most of these dangerous ingredients are fillers, dyes and man made substances. Check the label of your dog's current food. You may be shocked as you read the long list of ingredients. I purchased a bag of dog food that read "Naturally Complete with Vitamins and Minerals." When I read the long list of ingredients there was nothing natural in it. No wonder both of my dogs were itchy and one had a recurring ear infection.
On the other hand there is natural dog food. I want you to discover the benefits of natural dog food. Feeding your dog should begin with meat. Dogs are carnivores so meat, such as chicken, turkey, beef or even fish are best. Dogs need other healthy ingredients to round out their diet such as vitamins and minerals. Make sure whichever brand you choose contains no artificial flavoring or coloring. It's not good for humans and it's not good for dogs. Also, stay away from food made with grain, such as wheat, corn or oats. If eaten consistently, some dogs become itchy and can develop infections. Also, make sure the label includes a small amount of fat and some omega-3.
There are several excellent brands of natural dog food on the market. First ask your veterinarian which natural dog food he would recommend and why. Make sure his answer includes the above-mentioned ingredients. Stop purchasing dog food at the grocery store or chain pet supply stores. Most cities have pet stores that sell ONLY natural dog food products. I found one in particular in my home town with all natural products. The manager had several suggestions for feeding my 2 dogs. I took his advice and to my surprise, they both loved the natural dog food over the commercial dog food. So, I'm a believer.
When you discover the benefits of natural dog, first you'll realize that you're prolonging your dog's life. You're also reducing the chances of disease, such as diabetes and cancer. It feels good to know that your dog is leading a happy and healthy life. It may also mean fewer visits to the vet and fewer medications. The bottom line is that the benefits of natural dog food definitely outweigh commercial dog food.
