What is the dog food brand best for my poodle?
Hi, I have a poodle toy red two years old. I wondered what would healthy dog food for her (ie, California Natural, Eukanuba, etc)? Thanks, Todd PS: The dog is healthy, with all necessary vaccinations and shots, and she has worms or disease ... if that helps identify the best food for haha ...
The food is the fuel of life. Fuel quality is directly related to how well the body can operate. The low quality dog food such as Beneful, Pedigree, Ol 'Roy, Purina, Eukanuba, Iams, Science Diet, etc, are full of empty calories * *. These foods are made with keeping costs in mind, * not * in the best interest of nutrition. When think healthy food, do you think Nestle Mars (both heavily invested in candy production)? What Del Monte (heavily invested in products, especially corn ...)? Heck, just go to Beneful or Pedigree Web sites are filled with promotions, coupons, streaming audio and video, and comforting catchy slogans, because they know that whenever you paint a pretty picture, the "sheep" of the world will think it must be good because it has a warm and fuzzy feeling by advertising. Pup-Peroni Take (Del Monte), for example, a quick scan of the ingredients raises eyebrows: - Meat Byproducts - Definition: not provided, clean parts other than meat, derived from slaughtered mammals. It includes, but is not limited to, lungs, spleen, kidneys, brain, liver, blood, bone, partially defatted low temperature fatty tissue and stomachs and intestines freed of their contents - Sugar - Because all dogs need sugar, right? - Propylene glycol - Here are some uses of this chemical (from Wikipedia): + as the main ingredient in deodorant sticks + As a medical and sexual lubricant + As the agent of death and the preservation of pitfall traps, usually used to capture ground beetles + As a solvent used in the product mix photographic chemicals, such as film developers + In hand sanitizers, antibacterial lotions, and saline solutions How about Pedigree (made by the company of Mars M & M's), you know "really good food for dogs": - First ingredient - ROAD OF CORN (read, nutritionally gap filler) - Corn Gluten Meal - This is a known (even patented) herbicidal agent used for weed control in lawns and gardens! - Wheat Mill Run - Definition: Commonly known as "floor waste", this ingredient is nothing more than inexpensive filler with little or no nutritional value. - Chicken By-Product Meal: Consists of the ground, rendered, clean parts of the carcass of slaughtered chicken, such as necks, feet, undeveloped eggs and intestines, exclusive of of feathers, except in amounts that can be obtained in well inevitable process. Chicken by-product costs less than chicken muscle meat and lacks the digestibility of chicken muscle. Chemical additives aside, let's analyze the recommended serving size between Pedigree and a quality food like Orijen. Since Pedigree mostly filler, the poor dog has to eat more calories just to get to survive, compared with a quality food that actually contains real meat. Are you ready? Pedigree (50 75 lbs dog.): 4 to 5-1/3 cups a day Orijen (45 75 lbs dog.): 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 cups a day! Orijen costs more, but you feed less, and the quality is excellent. Just look at the difference in the ingredients and it is painfully obvious that it is a quality food. Genealogy: ground corn full meat and bone meal, ground wheat, corn gluten meal, animal fat (preserved with BHA / BHT), WHEAT MILL RUN, WHEAT FLOUR, natural flavor, salt, potassium chloride, caramel color, chicken product meal, rice, vegetable oil (source of linoleic acid), vitamins (choline chloride, dl-alpha tocopherol acetate SOURCE [VITAMIN E] SOURCE [L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate VITAMIN C *], vitamin A supplement, thiamine mononitrate [vitamin B1], Biotin, D-calcium pantothenate, riboflavin VITAMIN SUPPLEMENT [] B2, Vitamin D3, Vitamin B12), minerals (zinc sulfate, zinc proteinate, copper sulfate, copper proteinate, manganese proteinate iodide, potassium), ADDED FD & C and Lake Colors (Yellow 6, Yellow 5, 2 BLUE, RED 40) Orijen: boneless chicken, chicken meal, turkey meal, potatoes russet, lake whitefish, chicken fat potatoes, fresh, whole eggs, turkey, salmon meal, salmon and anchovy oils, salmon, natural chicken flavor, oil sunflower, sun-cured alfalfa, dried brown kelp, carrots, spinach, peas, tomatoes, apples, psyllium, dulse, glucosamine HCl, cranberries, currants black, rosemary extract, chondroitin sulfate, salt of the sea. You can apply this same analogy TO EVERY ONE OF PET FOOD IN THE CELLAR / CHAIN PET STORES! INFORMATION BREAKING: Science Diet is the junk food too! Yes, your vet makes * MONEY by selling it, not to mention a large number of veterinary programs schools are funded by Hill's! There is nothing scientific about their "diet." The science they use is how to make a profit. quality foods: Innova, California Natural, EVO, Karma-www.naturapet.com, welfare, basic welfare, ORIJEN-www.orijen.ca, Canidae, Merricks, Artemis, Taste of the wild, variety of nature, Solid Gold-Barking at the Moon, Go!, Now! -Www.canidae.com Canidae, Eagle Pack Holistic chicken (avoid regular Eagle Pack) and Timberwolf. In short, read the ingredients. Say a lot!
