Why all-natural?
Because your dog's food is not regulated by the FDA or any other government
agency. This means that many of the larger pet food manufacturers cut corners
on the food that your dog eats. If you don't already know what your dog is eating,
we're hoping the following will prompt you to do some research...and say no
to commercial dog foods.
Commercial
foods may contain:
- Meats, grains, and vegetables that
are not approved for human consumption. While they are a cheaper source of
food for your dog, they are also often high in chemicals and molds or are
just the ends of products that contain no nutritional value.
- Salt, and lots of it! Instead, the
foods we carry are preserved with mixed tocopherols (Vitamin E) and rosemery
oil. These presevatives are just as effective, and won't give your dog high
blood pressure.
- Animal
by-products, which are basically all the parts left over after the meat, livers,
hearts, and other edible parts of the animal have been taken. If your label
tells you what animal the by-product came from, at least you know something
about the food. If it doesn't, beware!
- In
addition, many of your commercial dog foods are so over-processed that even
if there was something good for your dog in the food, it is cooked out when
the food is made.
But,
there is hope. There are a number of all-natural dog food manufacturers on the
market today! They make food that is free of animal by-products, harmful chemicals
and full of whole grains, meats, and vegetables. They are also competatively
priced compared to the high-end commercial dog foods you feed right now.
