Canned Dog Food Health Investigation - Dog Food Research
That's right! Commercial dog food could be killing your dog, because of the preservatives it contains. Through research, it has been discovered that dog food contains at least 6 deadly chemicals that have been banned from human foods because they can cause the following:
Kidney cancer
Bladder cancer
Skin cancer
Stomach cancer
Spleen cancer
Leukemia
Liver dysfunction
Major organ failure
Immune system collapse
Severe allergic reactions
Birth Defects
Blindness
Chronic Diarrhea
Hair Loss and
Behavior problems, including increased aggressiveness
And if you think, like I did, that buying foods labeled as chemical and preservative free makes them safe, think again... it's just more lies! Many pet foods advertised as "preservative-free" do, in fact, contain preservatives. Manufacturers don't have to list preservatives that they themselves did not add. How much sense does that make??
Many preservatives make their way into pet food at rendering plants before the meat is even sent to the manufacturer. An analysis of several pet foods labeled "chemical free" or "all natural ingredients" found synthetic antioxidants in all samples."
Although you won't see it on the label, since it is often added at the rendering plant and not by the manufacturer, ethoxyquin (EQ) is used to preserve most dry pet food. EQ is the most powerful of all preservatives and may be the most toxic. The use of EQ is permitted in pet food. Take note that factory workers exposed to it exhibited side effects similar to those of agent orange: a dramatic rise in liver or kidney damage...cancerous skin lesions...hair loss...blindness...leukemia...fetal abnormalities, and chronic diarrhea.
In animals, EQ has been linked to: immune deficiency syndrome...spleen, stomach, and liver cancers, and a host of allergies."
And did you know that before these animal parts and by-product used for pet food are shipped from the slaughterhouse to the rendering plant, the by-product is denatured. Which means that crude carbolic acid, cresylic disinfectant, or citronella, is sprayed on the product. That's enough to make you sick!! And certainly enough to make your dog sick!!

Define The Dog Food Label
Researching The Dog Food Label - Understanding Dog Food Labels
How much do you love your dog? A pretty silly question, don't you think? You're taking time out of your busy day to read information on the canine breed right now. So I know how much your dog means to you. So doesn't it make sense, then, that you'd select food for your dog that we know to be healthy and nutritionally sound?
Let me ask you, do you know the difference between the dog food label "Chicken Dog Food" and "Dog Food With Chicken"? What is the difference, you ask? About 22%. "Chicken Dog Food" has to have at least 25% chicken in the can, while "Dog Food With Chicken" has to only have 3% of chicken included in your dogs dinner delight!!
And the dog food manufacturers seem to be putting a lot of time, effort and money into convincing us that their products are natural and nutritionally sound with marketing gimmicks and eye-catching claims that tell us what we want to hear.
Don't spend extra money on dog food simply because "premium" is part of the description of the dog food. Products labled as "premium," "super-premium", "ultra-premium" or "gourmet" do not contain any different or higher quality ingredients, nor are they held up to any higher nutritional standards than are any other complete and balanced product.
The same way the dog food labeled with the term "natural" has little to no meaning. So I wouldn't be tempted by that term either. It can be the equivalent to a lack of artificial flavors, artificial colors, or artificial preservatives in the product.
Now that I have you a little more concerned about label reading, remember that all ingredients are to be listed in order of predominance by weigh. You will want MEAT to be the first on the list...followed by an absorbable grain, such as rice. Anything else is just not good enough for your pet!! A very simple rule to follow. I hope this information will have you spending a little more time in the dog food aisle from now on, reading what you're feeding your dog. And I have only touched a few of the highlights on this topic,you can read much more by following the link below.

Nutritional Requirements Of Your Adult Dog
Basic Nutrients Of A Dog - How To Keep Your Dog Healthy
We all know that no two people are exactly the same. Well, the same goes for our canine friend. No two dogs are the same, as well. And the nutritional needs of your dog can vary the same way your own nutritional needs change over the years.
The various stages of a dogs life necessitate changing requirements. Although, all dogs require minimum quantities of six basic nutrients: Proteins , Fats, Carbohydrates , Minerals , Vitamins and Water .
Proteins are made up of amino acids, known as the building blocks that form thousands of different proteins, each with a specific function Every different amino acid configuration corresponds to a different protein, including enzymes, hormones, genes, red blood cells, hair, skin, bone and muscle.
Fats are saturated or polyunsaturated, but your dog is in need of both. Together, they form the essential fatty acids (EFA's) necessary for good health. Fat deficiencies could result in a dull coat, delayed healing of wounds, lack of energy, heart problems, and more.
Carbohydrates comprise a large group of compounds which include all sugars and starches that provide energy and a source of bulk in their diet. Carbs should make up no more than 50% of a dog's balanced diet, with 2 - 5% from fiber. Carb deficiencies can result in possible fertility and whelping problems, while too many carbohydrates cause obesity.
Minerals are found in all foods, but no single food contains everything needed in the proper balance for good nutrition. Mineral needs for dogs include calcium, potassium, phosphorous, sodium, magnesium. sulphur and in trace elements, iron, copper, zinc, manganese, iodine, cobalt, and selenium. Deficiencies in the different minerals have different results.
Vitamins are also found in all foods, but no one food can provide all the essential vitamins. There are two types of vitamins, water soluble and fat soluble. Dog foods contain vitamin and mineral supplements in balanced quantities. But too much or too little of one mineral may interfere with absorption of another or with vitamin use.
Water should always be available to your dog at all times. Hopefully always a bowl of fresh water! A dog loses water daily in urine and feces, through exercise, panting, and to a limited extent, through sweating from the pads on its paws. Dogs can suffer irreversible body dehydration and damage if water is unavailable for over 48 hours.
As you can see "Basic Nutrients" are a very important part of a dogs good health! But there is much more to realize and understand when it comes to keeping your dog in good health. Follow the link below to get more information. Your dog will be glad you did!
