We’re sorry to say that commercial dog food is the canine equivalent of fast food. Heavily-processed fast foods (burgers, fries, tacos, etc.) as a big diet component can cause major health problems in people. How can fast foods be good for dogs?
Dog food manufacturers would like us to think that the food they sell is good for your dog. Dogs and people share roughly 75% of the same genetic makeup, and we have similar nutritional needs. What we’re doing to our own health with processed foods, we’re also doing to our dogs.
Dog food may legally contain “4-D” meat: meat from dead, dying, diseased and disabled animals. Add a little road kill, mill floor sweepings labeled as grain, and corn contaminated with high levels of pesticide (yes, really) and you have a recipe for ill health. The cheaper the food, the cheaper the ingredients, and the worse the nutrition.
Canine nutritionists suggest that your doggy friend should eat commercial dog foods no more than twice a week.
Then what is a dog suppose to eat if human food and commercial dog food shouldn’t be consumed ?
