There is a lot of controversy with dog owners over which dog food is
better. Some people have no idea what makes a good dog food. They buy
the most expensive brand because they assume it must be a top quality
dog food. Others feel that dog food is dog food and if their dog seems
to be healthy then they see no reason to spend the extra money on a
premium brand.
Before we look at dog food costs, let's begin with what makes a good
dog food. A top quality dog food depends on the quality of ingredients
and the nutritional power of the food. It should offer a balanced diet
and contain superior sources of protein as one of the first two
ingredients. This can include whole fresh meats or single-source meat
meal like chicken meal (rather than poultry meal). A top dog food
would also contain whole, unprocessed grains plus vegetables and even
fruits. It would have few fillers such as corn, soy, brewer's rice and
wheat bran. It would use natural preservatives instead of chemicals
like propylene glycol and BHT or BHT....
