Ingredients In Dog Food
It has merely been in the last century that people have believed that hounds can not survive without packaged dog food. Many consider that we should only be feeding our dogs “superior” canned or packaged food, and that it would genuinely be harmful to provide our dogs morsels from our own home-cooked feast. But hounds have survived off of the scraps of people for thousands of years, and hence their digestive systems have modified to that kind of diet.
Several diligent dog owners are growing concerned with the dangers of enhancers and additives discovered in canned and dry “kibble” dog food. Most people would not consider dispensing their family canned foods or processed fast foods for every meal, every day of every week of their lives. So why do that to our hounds? A few vets are also starting to attribute many modern-day pet sickness to the highly processed diets they derive from packaged dog food. Indeed, there are a few pet food companies who do provide good-quality food for your pets, but unfortunately, most manufacturers are only providing low grade, below average meals that have within them very low grade substances.
Nothing naturally requires food to be cooked. This is the reason so many home-made dog food recipes are not cooked but are made up of raw food. They are vet recommended and consisit of food we would eat. These are so easy to get ready. Dogs, like us, enjoy different foods — and that’s why they love home-made dog food recipes. Natural, home-made dog food recipes should contain little sugars, fats and oils. Where it allows for it, exchange the sucrose in a recipe with fructose instead.
Aswell as the benefits of rearing your canine on a diet that is full of nutrients such as protein, you also get to know exactly what you are feeding your dog. Did you know that the shop pet food suppliers can change up to fifteen percent of their pet food ingredients without having to change the ingredient labels on their bags? Many times the ingredient panel of a dog food bag has a multitude of one type of grain listed. This may not register or mean anything to you, but it really is. If dog food manufacturers had to list their ingredients as corn or wheat instead of listing them individually as corn grits, whole corn, corn middlings, corn bran, or corn gluten meal, the different types of corn ingredients added together might be more than the meat ingredients. This may be legal, but, there are those who protest that the public are being misled.
So now that you know that giving your pet a healthy, home-made meal is much simpler for you and better for them, have fun discovering some great recipes for your dog. So, in conclusion, if you wouldn’t give processed foods like dog food to your young, why are you making your pet have them?
