    • Innova, Wellness, Merick, Orijen, Blue, Tase of the Wild are all some of the good ones out there. To find a premium quality dog food, read the ingredients list.Do not pay attention to advertising, they all claim to be great. Manufacturers of the poor quality foods are not going to say,"We use total garbage in our food but buy it anyway." Also a point to remember is when a pet food advertises "vet approved"the company has a vet, on staff, paid to recommend the food. Not such a good recommendation after all. Just like with humans, better nutrition means better health. The better quality your pets food is the better off your pet is. As a bonus if you use a good quality food that is not made with fillers your pet will have a smaller, firmer stool. The very first ingredient in a good quality food will be a specificmeat. It will read: "Chicken", "Turkey" or "Beef" Not chicken meal, turkey meal or beef meal. A type of meat, or fish, will be the firstingredient. No exceptions. If it simply says "Meat" stay clear, don't buy it. Meat is not specific.This is a list of some of the things you should try to avoid.1 - Corn, in any form (corn, corn meal, corn gluten...etc) should be avoided. As soon as you see corn in the ingredients list you know it is not a good food for your pet. Corn is simply a filler, no nutritional value for your pet. Dogs and cats do not digest corn, it just passes right through them so your pet gets a larger, stinker stool. Some dogs are also allergic to corn, it will cause itching and skin problems. 2 - Wheat, only because it is common for dogs to be allergic to it. If your dog does not have a wheat allergy, wheat is fine. 3 - By Products. That is what is left over after everything "good"is removed during processing. It not only contains cow hooves and horns, fur and feathers and feces it can contain sawdust and dirtfrom the floor. By products can also contain diseased tissue, cancerous tissue. It is anything from the animal not fit for human consumption. This stuff can sit around for days, un-refridgerated, waiting for pick up. Frankly, I would not feed pet food containing by-products to a stray, let alone my own beloved pets. 4 - "General", non-specific ingredients, like animal digest and meat meal should be avoided. You have no way of knowing what theyare and we probably don't want to know. Look for specificingredients like chicken fat or lamb meal. That tells you what it is.5 - Preservatives such as propylene glycol, BHA, BHT and ethoxyquin are all cancer causing. Look instead for Mixed tocopherois, a natural preservative. 6 - Soy, in any form is another filler and also another ingredient dogscan have severe allergies too. 7 - Brewer's yeast. Again, causes problems. Watch out for skin and earinfections if the food contains this product.8 - Flax is another ingredient some dogs have a problem with, usually as a stool softener. Again, read the ingredients lists. Yes a premium quality food will cost more than the poor quality ones. Common sense, Meat costs more than corn. On the other hand, a healthy dog needs less trips to the vetthan one suffering allergies and infections caused by the food being fed. So find a premium quality dog food and have a healthier dog!
