Ranking Your Dog's FOOD! 🤔 Nutritionist's Dog Food Guide 

It is about time this information comes to the public!

what do you think about the brand primal? it's hard to find any of the brands you mentioned in the town i live in. Primal seems to be the popular raw food here. do you know anything about them?

What are your thoughts on the Zignature brand? Thanks!

@@dmarie4192 I have that same question about Zignature.

Thank you for sharing all the information. Can you review Blue Buffalo Life Protection for toy breed? Thanks!

@LC what are your thoughts on Stella and Chewy’s wholesome grains? 🐶😃

@@user-ew3sp1hl6q Did you have a specific formula (flavor) in mind? Each recipe has different ingredients... If your sweet dog has any health concerns your vet can help you pick a diet tailored to his/her needs. And the first thing I ask a client when they want a food recommendation is what brand they are partial to. We can often look through the ingredients of different recipes to find one that their pet likes and avoids ingredients we know the pet is sensitive to. Also be aware of brands who's recipes include all life stages. Puppies, adults, and senior dogs all have different dietary requirements and their food should reflect that. I hope that helps. : ) I'm sorry if this answer wasn't specific enough, that brand makes several varieties of dog food. They seem to have quality ingredients, and I like that they are pea and lentil free for the ones I saw. Some studies have suggested that peas and lentils can contribute to canine heart disease (DCM). However I am also concerned that the ones I saw were for all life stages... Unfortunately without knowing the pet requiring the food it's difficult to make a recommendation. But during your next vet visit don't be shy to bring a bag of dog food (or the label) and ask the vet or a knowledgeable technician if they think these ingredients are right for your pet or if they recommend something else. Most staff are happy to give a recommendation and tell you what they fed their pets. : ) And believe me, anyone in the veterinary field learns quickly which foods create problems and which foods have a positive affect. As a pet parent it's wonderful that you are your pet's advocate and you take their food choices seriously. I'm sure you'll make a good decision for you baby. : ) Edit: after doing more research, I did find that many of their recipes have specific life stages. I'm by no means saying I think it's a bad food. I like many of their key ingredients. Just check with your vet to be sure and check any labels for life stage to make sure it fits your dog's stage. : )

Truth.

Glad your not my vet. Raw feeding is the best way to keep your dog healthy and cancer free.

@@maureenpiccirillo1586 I'm not against raw feeding at all. I fed my own dog a freeze dried food that I rehydrated before feeding until recently in his old age (he's 13) he now requires a prescription diet. I don't understand why you thought I would be against raw food... I'm just cautious of any food cooked or raw that is labeled for all life stages. People have to live with their pet, and with the decisions they make about their pet's diet. Unless it's obviously harmful I don't try to sway owners either way. I offer the pros and cons of each diet and help them come to an informed decision. After all, they are also the ones paying for their pet's food. So I don't pressure them into foods that are not in their budget. It's all a balance of their pet's health, the owner's budget, the owners comfort zone and preferences, and the pet's preferences. : )

Your feedback always hit different, in the best way. I value your opinion so much! Ty!

This encouragement means a ton! Food can be a very controversial topic, and my goal is for pet parents to learn something from my videos- not feel bad for their choice. I hope it helps inspire better bowls!

Means the 🌎 to hear this

Thank you for being here!!! #informedpetparent

I appreciate you ❤️

They are on my list!! Coming soon

That's a great option! My dogs love it.

Yes I’m familiar they are on my list!

They’ll be one of the firsts I review!

Eek 🙈😍🤩 You’re far too kind, I’m so thankful for you ✨✨✨✨

I know these brands well, absolutely!

My true pleasure😍😍

Eek 🙈 I’m SO glad that you enjoyed it! It feels nice to share all this “stuff” in my 🧠 😜

Ofc, yes!

Yes yes def!!

Thank you for sharing your experience, I hope it Inspires others! There’s never just one “best” way❤️

Thank you for being a trucker! You keep the world moving! 💗

Hopefully you'll see this. Im also a trucker and had my gsd on purina pro plan as a pup then we changed to orijen now its coming to light they changed their recipe and my boy is itchy as a mf and now has diarrhea.. how is you pup doing on that food and have you changed or stayed on it. Ty

Yes to this would love some tips! Also why do you wait to serve it until it’s room temp? I’ve been giving my dog the food straight from the freezer and she gnaws on it like a treat

You already know! 😍😍

AllProvide please!!

it’s also a really good food!! ours have been on it for two years.

I’m glad you brought up budget, it’s a key factor! What’s a good budget that you’d expect for a medium sized dog monthly?

@@RachelFusaro Our high energy Boykin Spaniel pup at full grown is only going to be 35-40lbs. Personally, I don’t want to spend more than $75 monthly on food (we are at $55 right now on Purina). We buy so many toys and treats, I want to be sure to still have room for that! I’d love to keep it as affordable as possible - thanks

I would go with Bixbi kibble as I believe it is the best dry kibble on the market. Also should be within your budget. Add in some supplements from Native Pet (Omega Oil), treats from Dr. Becker (Beckers Bites), and all natural Bully Sticks from Safety Chew and you should have a happy and healthy pup. Good luck!

I have seen it, but I haven’t dug into the manufacturing or formula. Good idea!!
