The Worst Dog Food Brands On The Market

By Eula Nichols


Adopting a pet comes with many responsibilities. It's not just about getting a pet, but more like growing the family. The fact is, with children, they grow into adults and become completely independent, but that's not so when it comes to puppies. Our canine friends have ultimately been compared to two-year-old children for their entire lives, meaning a great and continual responsibility for the owners. Numerous factors must be considered when adopting a puppy, getting with nutrition. Some people don't realize that the worst dog food brands can actually have a huge impact on their pets.

Nutrition to a puppy and a full-grown canine is second to none, just as important as it is for humans. Therefore, what they eat must provide their bodies and their brains with top-notch ingredients. These nutrients will feed them accordingly, keep them strong and healthy, and ultimately live longer lives.

Again, just as with people, exercise is crucial to a dog's health, and is just as important as nutrition. Both humans and dogs need their rest, top quality food, and plenty of exercise. Without those key elements, only problems can arise.

People obviously need different nutrients than do our canine friends, for optimum health. Walking into a grocery store or pet store will prove that there are numerous brands and blends that a pet owner can pick from. However, this decision must be made carefully.

Those that are extremely inexpensive should be the ones that sound the alarms. Manufacturers that sell their blends for double or triple the cost don't do so for unknown reasons. The fact remains, the more expensive brands usually have that are quality ingredients in them, and he inexpensive ones may be questionable.

Basically, they could be compared to our own foods. If people eat processed foods on a daily basis, there will be consequences. For one thing, there will be weight gain, but that's just the beginning. Aside from that, vital organs will be stressed, and begin to deteriorate. Chronic diseases may ensue.

The same is true when it comes to dogs and what they eat. The very inexpensive large bags found in pet stores and grocery stores alike, are often the equivalent of junk food, lacking extensively in nutrients. They are filled with ingredients that can put their risk of health, and ultimately reduce their longevity.

Some of the worst dog food brands on the market have been on the news because they contained very questionable, in edible ingredients. Being made abroad, in an effort to save lots of money in production, and ultimately make more in profits, manufacturers were caught with their hands in their pockets. These ingredients could not only make dogs very ill, but it could even kill them. Feeding them right will reduce visits to the vet, which will save lots of money, and your pet can give you love and companionship for longer.
