For a dog lover, a longer life for a canine friend is of utmost importance. If you're one, you would undoubtedly take every precautionary step possible to ensure this. Nutrition is one of the most important factors involved in prolonging a dog's life and the good news is, you have complete control over it. This is why it is necessary that you get yourself educated on the kinds of food that you serve your dog, especially processed ones, and get to know what really goes into those. Your dog relies on you heavily for its sustenance just as you rely on it for its loyalty and companionship, so you pretty much owe it as much.
Dog Food Secrets by Andrew Lewis exposes the shocking truth behind huge commercial brand that advertises dog food to be of high nutritional content but are in fact laden with disgusting things like decaying carcasses of animals that, yes, do include dogs; plastics; road kill; and poison, among others. The book details how all these are stuffed into the product. Needless to say, I strongly suggest you get a copy of the book. I know I just threw in pretty bold words there so you have to read to believe.
Among the many diseases and illnesses your dog may experience if you continue to feed it with these toxic dog food are: weak or deformed bones, chronic skin and ear infections, chronic flea and worm infestations, an impaired ability to heal from wounds, kidney failure, liver failure, immune system collapse, epilepsy, cancer and even behavioral alterations like aggression that makes dog unsafe around children. And these are even just a few of the effects. On a side note, in the case of aggression, if you know you've been feeding your dog human-grade food, training them should tame this behavior down. Secrets to Dog Training (SitStayFetch) by Daniel Stevens is a good reference for dog training.
Getting back to the topic, the excellent news is there are tricks and techniques for you to identify and separate bad and poisonous dog food from really good ones. One of those tricks includes label reading. The ingredient "animal sources" in dog food should give you an idea that the company behind the product can technically put any kind of animal in there. There are other products that are specific with their animal sources and put "chicken" or "beef" in their labels. That means as long as the contents of the product contain yields from the claimed sources, the brand is following the rules. Let me make it clear though that any byproduct of the animal or any quality can be put in the mix just as long as they are from that particular animal. This means organs, dung from a diseased or decaying carcass of that particular animal are no exemptions. If you want to make sure you get quality meat, look for brands that have "human grade ingredients" in them. This is just an example of how you can read and uncover label codes used by dog food companies.
