Knowledge of why the ingredients are there is also important. White potatoes are another form of filler. There are other things in these "higher quality" foods that are not good for a dog but I won't go into it. If a person cannot find or make the food that their pet may need for a particular problem then obviously the RX diet must be used. It's a shame that there are so few really good foods out there. |
I am not saying the ingredient list is not important. What I am saying is, the most important thing is to find what works. Every dog is different so every dog will thrive on different things. Saying Potato is bad, is not, when many dogs find this to be a relief to grains.
I personally think there are great foods out there with alot of Science behind them.
