“What’s the best food for my dog?”

This is the most common question we hear from our dog food customers. And while they have every right to expect expert advice from their dog food provider, I sense a little surprise when they get our standard response; “It depends.”

What do we know about the dog? Factors like age, life stage, allergies, breed, activity level, preference, recent changes in eating habits or environment can be significant factors in choosing the right food for your dog.

Over 40% of companion animals in the United States are either overweight or obese. The prevalence of obesity in both dogs and cats has been on the rise over the past 10 years. As scary as this sounds, even scarier is the fact that only a small percentage of pet owners think that their pet is overweight or obese.
