Dog food Hi i just wanted to go over my dogs dog food, my older boy max eats natural balance small bites and my new puppy is eating a mix of wet and dry holistic products that the breeder said she was feeding her. almost all dog foods i come across i see some type of bad review somewhere about the food. any recomendations, what foods are you using and is anyone home cooking for there pets which i think i am going to be looking into. |
I always suggest this site- Dog Food Analysis - Reviews of kibble. It gives a pretty good description of why food is good or bad. I currently feed my GSD raw and will switch my Biewer to raw when she hits 6 months. Everyone is going to have differing opinions on food, but most will say to stay away from anything corn, and try to find a food that the first ingredient(s) are meat. Again I like the site listed above because it explains different foods. |
I feed all my dogs California Natural Lamb and Rice. Nursing Moms and their puppies are doing really well on Royal Canine 32--makes transition to dry kibble very easy for the puppies when mom weans them. Then we move onto California Natural Lamb and Rice Puppy food. The adults eat the low fat version. |
I'm currently feeding mine Solid Gold Wee Bits for the kibble. I also give them cooked chicken, yogurt, green beans, carrots, sweet potato's, pinapple, and peanut butter (treat). I tried raw for a time but it worried some as there is always a risk with eating raw meat. I know a number of people who do feed raw and haven't had any problems but I'm just a little more cautious. |
I always love to recommend Orijen and Acana, both made by Champion, and excellent foods, in my opinion. You can watch the main video on their site (Champion Petfoods | Home) and I have to say, my dog eats better than I do! LOL. I feed both Orijen Adult and Acana Grasslands with great results. Check out the ingredients in Orijen and compare it to Beneful, for example! It's easy to see the difference. Check out all the meat content (in bold) :thumbup: Awesome food. These are the ingredients to Orijen Adult; Fresh deboned chicken, chicken meal, turkey meal, russet potato, fresh deboned pacific salmon (a natural source of DHA and EPA), herring meal, sweet potato, peas, fresh deboned lake whitefish, fresh deboned northern walleye, chicken fat (naturally preserved with vitamin E and citric acid), chicken liver, salmon meal, fresh deboned turkey, fresh whole eggs, fresh deboned herring, sun-cured alfalfa, salmon oil, chicory root, dehydrated organic kelp, pumpkin, carrots, spinach, turnip greens, apples, cranberries, saskatoon berries... I also really like Go! Endurance, Nature's Variety Instinct, etc. Bottom line though is that every dog does well on something different, and you need to find what works for individual dogs. You will always hear pros/cons of nearly every food out there so you just need to do your research and what is best for you dog! |
Levi eats Orijen now, and I am pleased with it. :thumbup: We've used Blue Buffalo in the past, and Levi did well on it. I decided to go the grain-free route, so we switched to Orijen. I'll occasionally give him chopped pieces of carrots, green beans, apple (no seeds or skin), or cooked chicken mixed in - or I'll add in about a tablespoon of wet food (we use Wellness Core). |
I strongly recommend Orijen also. |
Origjen video The video on orijen food is almost to good to be true. if that is the case i just found my little ones a new food source. I really hope that this is all true because its not like companies lie to make big profits. but it looks really good, i just want the best for my little max and bella |
