The FDA doesn’t have strict enough regulations on the pet food industry. So many pet parents are unknowingly feeding their pets unhealthy treats coated with chemicals to maintain freshness. Take a minute to read this blog post and consider some healthier treat options. I give my dogs Pure Bites as they only include one ingredient, sourced in the USA, no preservatives as they’re freeze dried and only 5 calories per treat. No, I’m not getting paid to promote them... just want to share a healthy option for your pets! Surprise: Milkbones are one of the worst treats you can give your pet.

Grain-Free Food
DCM is becoming an increasing concern for pet parents and veterinary healthcare professionals. The pet food industry continues to try to deflect by blaming legumes as a main cause when legumes are perfectly safe in moderation. Taurine deficiency seems to be the true source of the problem. The issue is that the big pet food brands use excess amounts of legumes as cheap fillers in their food rather than spend money to include animal proteins that help your dog produce Taurine. If you’re concerned that your pet isn’t getting the proper nutrients needed for a healthy lifestyle, ask your vet to check Taurine levels during a routine blood test and talk to them about the proper way to transition your pet to a healthier diet.

Since the first warnings about canine heart failure possibly associated with grain-free pet foods, scientists are still trying to figure out the cause.
