Many pets today have skin allergies from the foods that they are eating. Which can add up to very expensive vet bills for you and suffering for your pet. They can also develop cancers from the meat byproducts, dyes and toxic preservatives.
There are so many brands to choose from so how do you know what food is best?
First thing you want to do is Read the Labels and know what the ingredients are.
Avoid:
- Meat By Products: this is what is left over after the meat has been stripped off the carcasses, ingredients not ordinarily consumed by humans, (beeks, feet entrails etc).
- Chemical preservatives: BHT/BHA, Propyl Gallate, has a long history of carcinogenesis and EQ or Ethoxyquin was first used as a rubber stabilizer and effective insecticide and pesticide. Do you really want these toxic chemicals in your pets food?
- Sodium Nitrate: is a coloring agent and fixative known to cause cancer
Here are some better choices for your pets food. There are plenty of books with recipes for feeding raw or cooking for your pets at your local library or even online!
First Choice: A balanced diet of Fresh Whole Raw meats, bones and vegetables
Second Choice: Balanced Home Prepared Meals, if you have time to cook them
Third Choice: Freeze dried or air dried Raw foods
Fourth Choice: Canned Food that has human grade quality ingredients that are not overprocessed, no dyes, fillers or by products.
Avoid Dry kibble...Cats & Dogs are carnivores and need meat not over processed grains and fillers.
Special Hint:
Which ever food you choose to feed your pets, give them a variety of flavors (Duck, bison, rabbit, venison, salmon, beef). Can you imagine eating the same food everyday for the rest of your lives.
