Answer by crabble_xxx
Hmm… Many articles are right and fake. There are 3 types of dog food quality, that is grocery, premium and super premium. Grocery examples, such as lams dog food. Premium types such as Pedigree, Purina, etc. Super Premium types are Eukanuba (I’m using this, and it’s excellent) and Science Diet.
If you agree to those articles, suggest use Super Premium types, or feed them meat, vegetables and rice.

What do you reckon? Answer below!

Right?Incorrect!While vets should be the best people to advise about dog food, sadly they’re not. Why? Because the top commercial pet food manufacturers now financially contribute to many veterinary schools. They have a foot in the door. They can, and do, influence the students. After all you generally don’t bite the hand that feeds you. In most countries of the world, there are, at least some basic laws governing the quality of human food, whether it’s fresh produce, meat or quick food. In no country are there laws (which are enforced) that insist commercial pet food manufacturers use quality ingredients. That means anything can, and does, go. After all, if meat is of excellent quality, wouldn’t you sell it to the highest market – the human market? So, it’s only the poorest quality meat, more often meat by-products (such as hair, intestines and contents, chicken feet, brain, skin, grizzle, stout, etc) that goes for dog food. This means that the overall nutrient quality is as poor as it gets, as different proteins have different nutritional absorbability. Pet food is always bulked out with inert (or not as the melamine scam from China testifies) filler. Typically, this filler will be the current cheapest carbohydrate. There’s often a world glut of something, driving down the price. It may be sugar one year, wheat the next. Do you reckon the addition of sugar into your dog’s diet will serve to improve his health?Why do you reckon that diabetes in dogs is on the increase?Dogs may bulk out their food in the wild, but it would be on fresh plant matter that’s available, such as fruit or leaves. Cooking destroys many vitamins and enzymes which are critical to the overall health of your dog. As most dog food is dried pellets, which keep indefinitely at room temperature, preservatives must be used. Some manufacturers claim they have not added preservatives. Look carefully at the wording. They did not add it. This may be right. But preservatives will always have been added to the meat before it was delivered to the manufacturers. It’s impossible to keep meat products at room temperature indefinitely without the use of strong preservatives. Preservatives that would never be allowed in human food, because of their poisonous effect. So your dog may be well fed as far as volume is concerned, but will be starving for quality food. How can your dog remain healthy if he’s fed garbage?Most people would be appalled at the process that goes into the making of commercial pet food. That would be a really excellent incentive not to feed it. I’m attempting to give you a glimpse behind the scenes, so you can give your dog the best dog food available within your budget and within your time available.
