A common dilemma among dog owners is choosing the healthiest and most suitable food for their doggies. There are a lot of dog foods sold in the market and dog owners are having a hard time choosing the best for their dog. Dog owners are confused whether they should buy generic food or branded products for their beloved pups. They are not sure if branded products is worthy of buying and whether the product is expensive because of a “special formula” that it has or just because of the paid advertisement by companies to promote their products and later pass the additional cost to the buyers.
Are branded products really worth buying? That is a typical question dog owners ask themselves. Several factors have to be considered in choosing the right food for your mutt. Dogs have different nutritional needs and it must be based on their breed, age, daily activities and body condition. Just like adults and babies, puppies have different dietary needs compared to adult dogs. In order to be sure that the dog meal you give to your hound is right for them, you need to consult a veterinarian. Veterinarians know what is best for your doggy. One of the popular dog foods that pet owners buy is the dry dog food.
Dry dog food usually consists of small pieces of kibbles. In buying dry food, dog owners should read first the ingredients of the product to make sure that there is no harmful ingredient included in the product. Some doggies are allergic to some ingredients and in some cases this might cause severe damage to their body. Some guidelines should be taken in consideration in choosing the best dog food and in checking the ingredients that the dog foods contain. First, avoid buying dog foods that contain chemical additives as a source of flavor. Chemical additives can possibly harm your pups after a period of intake.
Second, pay attention to the color of the food and always remember that natural dog food’s color is soft earth tones. Third, choose a meal that is made from natural meat like lamb, chicken or liver. And last, remember to provide your pup a balanced meal that consists of 40% meat, 30% fiber and 30% starch. You may include broccoli, carrots and yam in your puppy’s meal. Follow what veterinarians say that raw dog stuff is the best and the healthiest for your pet.
