Should I buy commercial or premium dog food?

By Mike Smith


What is the difference between commercial as well as premium canine foods?

The difference between commercial dog food and high quality dog foods is very extensive however, there are simple methods that all of us as dog owners can take advantage of to make sure that we offer the perfect diet to the faithful companions.

Commercial Dog Food

The industrial dog food marketplace is heavily relied upon by wholesale and commercial stores as it is this type of product that contributes widely towards the success of these consumer franchises.

For the production of a commercial dog food product, dog food manufacturers use a lower quality ingredient structure. This includes animal by product. Animal by products contain little nutrition and are thought of as fillers.

Using this method, the price of production is low. The profit is high because of the public purchasing the product at a low price than that of the premium product. Most owners are not concerned with what the label around the bag reads. Many just buy their dog foods blindly and feel happy enough using what they're feeding their pet. Fillers (cheap additives) are included to make the food taste good.

Premium Dog Food

Premium pet food is exactly what it says it is. These are great, nutritious products that are safe to feed to your canine. They are great because they are:

- Products that are manufactured with your dog in mind instead of the dollar.

- Products that are properly nutritionally well balanced.

- Products that contain high quality ingredients.

- Items that take due time to be created permitting proper research to become conducted

-- Extensive product testing, instance, Taste tests.

Commercial dog food manufacturers gain from our lack of knowledge! Would you being a parent feed your brand-new baby a substandard formula, or even would you opt for the more costly yet much superior brand? A good dog owner will opt for the latter each time! Knowing how important a healthy diet is to the present and future longevity of one's dog makes the point for feeding premium dog food very well.

The below list is a simple guide containing things to consider the next time you go to purchase dog food for your dog:

- Industrial products are sold in commercial establishments such as grocery stores.

- Premium products are not sold in grocery stores.

- Lots of commercial products list whole meat of some kind as their first ingredient. This really is misleading due to the measurement being taken before the meat is cooked, reducing it drastically.

- Premium products will not list entire meat as their first component.

- A lot of premium products contain particular breed formulas best suited for the breed of dog.

- When buying a premium dog food, you will pay for what you get. In order to ensure a quality product money is spent to research, test and tinker with the product to create the finished product.

Premium dog food is worth it's fat in gold to your canine!
