Dog Food Comparisons – Homemade and Commercial
- naturaldogfoodseo in category: Uncategorized
With all of the commercial dog foods offered, why would anyone want to spend the time and money to make their pet’s food? Whenever you look past the dog food comparisons of percentages of crude protein, amount of fiber, or calorie count and actually take a look at what’s in a can of dog food, then the answer to that question is perhaps easier than you think.
Have you ever looked at the ingredients in a can of dog food? In the event you haven’t, you really should; you owe it to yourself and your dog. If you have checked out the ingredients, do you know what they are?
The fifth ingredient in a can of chicken formula from an expensive, very much respected maker of dog and cat foods is chicken meal. Have you any idea what chicken meal is? It’s the dry, ground, rendered, clean parts of the remains of slaughtered chickens, like necks, feet, undeveloped eggs, and intestines – exclusive of feathers except in such amounts as might occur unavoidably in good processing practices. They are the less digestible parts of the chicken. Each batch can differ greatly in kinds and quality of parts so nutritional value might be inconsistent. Essentially, it is used as an inexpensive filler.
Would you eat chicken meal? I didn’t think so. Why would you feed it to your dog? If you were to shop for ingredients to make your dog’s food, you’d get human quality beef, chicken, pork, vegetables, and grains. Also it wouldn’t cost any more than a high-quality dog food brand. Your dog would in all probability have more of his dietary needs met as well.
The vast majority of people believe their dogs part of their families. I’m sure you are among those. Furnish your dog the absolute best opportunity for better health; make his food yourself. With regards to dog food comparisons between commercial brands and home made, there is no comparison; home made wins, hands down.
