I became passionate about canine nutrition after I lost both of my childhood dogs within 3 months of each other. Xander and Frances were on a rotation of Hill’s Science and Blue Buffalo. These were brands I thought I could trust but unfortunately they both had recalls that killed my dogs. When I adopted Lily, I wanted to ensure she always ate better than me and thanks to veterinarian’s like Dr. Barbara Royal, I learned the benefits of feeding a fresh, raw and balanced diet. Here’s the thing though, not everyone is comfortable or able to feed raw food, especially balanced. Did I also mention that dogs are bio-individual just like us, so what works for one dog may not always work for the other which is why we have so many choices!
The top questions I’m asked on a daily basis are:
- What brands do you recommend?
- How do I stay within my budget?
- Should I be scared of DCM?
Well Mama & Papa Bears, I’m here to tell you to FEED THE BEST YOU CAN. You need to focus on the ingredients, not the brands, price tag or marketing. Overall it’s your choice to pick kibble, cooked or raw because only you know your dog best! Real food nutrition is the key to longevity so let’s talk….
