Ugh! I’m Having The Worst Time Choosing Dog Food?
So I’ve been into dog nutrition lately, and I believe in cooking for your pet, but quite honestly, I would just prefer buying dry dog food. I know, I know, if I love my pet I would put them on the BARF diet or cook for them. But I feel that you can give them good quality dog food for the same price without all the prep time.
Lately I’ve loved Taste of the Wild, but I’m concerned since it has regular potatoes in it. Isn’t that a filler? Plus, I found out a little while ago that they don’t have to list ingredients put into it BEFORE it reaches the plant and is made. So how do I know it’s that good?? Dogs seem to benefit greatly from it and the ingredients listed are great. Plus, there’s no grain! I try to stray away from grains.
Another thing, dry dog food doesn’t give them enough moisture. And I don’t want my dog sucking down tons of water every day to make up for it. Let’s face it, that’s waiting for an accident in the house to happen. So can I put in low-sodium chicken broth, too?
Is there any human foods I can mix in to make the quality even better? We just got a puppy and we’re putting her on giant puppy food (she’s a Great Dane) but when she’s older I want to be prepared.
Also, what are some good giant breed puppy foods?
Thanks!












Here is the best link on feeding danes & their health issues. It is written by a long time dane owner/breeder & canine nutritionist.http://www.greatdanelady.com/articles/ho…
She has other articles about corn & grain-free foods that you might want to read. You must be careful with the foods with a large/giant breed pup. They can get pano or grow too quickly for their joints/bones from the wrong food like too much protein in majority of puppy foods.
well i dont know. My vet likes for his patients to eat purina brand dog and cat food, and my 2 dogs and cat do well with it. No grain. But i dont know. ask your vet about some things you can mix in.
