Vitamins out of balance in dog food can lead to heart, blood, and urinary issues along with a lot of other things. It is nothing to mess around with. When Ellie is on a homecooked diet for maintenance, even her food meets AAFCO guidelines as it should.
I got ya! I was a little confused over the whole thing. Thanks for the info.
