If it was a dog w/compromised liver or ailing kidney function, then I would def pick the right/ appropriate food w/more veggie proteins, but a normal healthy dog will require their protein coming mainly from a meat source. Another thing w/getting protein only from veggies poses a problem for dogs bc they have a slightly acidic pH of 5-6.5, whereas humans have an alkaline pH of 7-7.5. Fruits & veggies are alkaline forming foods. |
Fromm should be ashamed of itself for selling this junk. Everyone should know that "pork meal" is not what it sounds like. It just like "meat and bone meal", very cheap and bad quality.
Fromm is bad at using cheap ingredients in place of meat. Almost all the foods have powdered pea protein and very high amounts.
Also, Fromm uses cheese in the food to add MSG. Dried cheese is very high in MSG.
Avoid Fromm.
