Dog Food For Your Dog? Think Again
For a dog lover, a longer life for a canine friend is of utmost importance. If you’re one, you would undoubtedly take every precautionary step possible to ensure this. Nutrition is a vital factor in that spells the difference between an untimely demise and a long life for a dog. In fact it is one of the few factors you actually have a say in and complete control over. This is why you should think twice about serving your dog just any food especially processed ones without you yourself getting better educated at what goes into those kinds of food. You rely on your dog for its loyalty and companionship and you owe it as much to return the favor and provide for it as it also relies on you heavily for its sustenance.
Dog Food Secrets by Andrew Lewis is a shocking revelation behind the deception that goes on about the dog food industry. Apparently companies, especially big ones, have found a way to make it legally appear like their products have the best nutritional value for your dog when in fact they contain very disgusting things like decaying carcasses of animal that does indeed include dogs, road kill, plastic and other poisonous substances. If you’re wondering if it is even possible to stuff all those things in the products, I suggest you grab a copy of the book where the entire process is detailed. To read is to believe and that is the one way you can confirm why I’ve thrown in such bold words there.
Toxic dog food, should you continue to provide your dog such, can cause the following: weak or deformed bones, chronic skin and ear infections, chronic flea and worm infestations, an impaired ability to heal from wounds, kidney failure, liver failure, immune system collapse, epilepsy, cancer and even behavioral alterations like aggression that makes dog unsafe around children. And that list of effects isn’t even exhaustive. On a side note, if you think toxic dog food has nothing to do with your dog’s behavioral problems like aggression because you probably feed your dog homemade meals, this dog training book should do the trick: Secrets to Dog Training (Sit Stay Fetch) by Daniel Stevens.
Now going back to food, the good news is there are ways for you to identify if a certain dog food is going to be poisonous to your dog. One of which is that you learn how to read labels.. Be careful with commercial dog food that have, as one of its ingredients, “animal sources” because technically they are allowed to put any kind of animal in there. In the case of products that name or specify their animal sources, such as when they put “chicken” or “beef” in their label, the maker is bound by law to put only yields or byproducts of the claimed animals in the mix. Let me emphasize that they can put whatever things they can get from that particular animal and that includes organs, dung and etc and that they can be from diseased chicken, beef and etc. If this doesn’t suit you at all, which I doubt it will, you have to look for brands that carry “human grade ingredients” and that it should be specified so in the packing.
