Commercial pet foods could be killing your four-legged family member!
In 2010, the global pet market was estimated to be worth more than $50 billion in the US, according to Markets and Markets' pet food industry report. The report says that North America dominates the global pet food market, with more than 40% of the total market share in 2010. The report also includes trends in the global pet food market, such as the shift to organic and natural pet foods.
Is your pet food harming/killing your animals?
If you feed your pet’s commercial brand pet food it most likely is. Sounds scary, well it should be. These large commercial companies are doing everything in their power to supply your pets with the cheapest, lowest forms of nutrition they can get by with.
Do you wonder why so many pets have health problems?
It is mostly caused from the poor quality of food they eat every day. Just as the food we eat makes ourselves susceptible to various cancers and other illnesses the same applies to our pets. The main difference is our pets do not have a choice for themselves. We must educate ourselves and take charge in our pet’s health before it is too late.
You can gain years on your pet’s life by changing their diets today!
Holistic/Raw/Organic pet foods are on the rise and will hopefully replace most of the garbage foods that our pets are currently ingesting. Don’t panic with those scary words all that they mean are your pets will be getting 100% natural ingredients, human grade meats, without any harmful chemicals added.
Cat and Dog parts have been found in commercial grade foods.
What, yes you heard me right! If that isn’t bad enough they have also found the same barbiturates used to put animals down in the pet foods. That is pretty self-explanatory. I am not here to scare you and make you stop feeding your animal’s commercial food right this second. Sometimes it is better to slowly detox your pets and give them the quality of life they deserve.
Here are a couple great links and some good foods you can check out on your own. Remember your pets love you so much and they deserve only the best from you!
Finally, something to help with the new raw food diet for dogs.
We’ve been hearing a lot about the benefits of putting our dogs on a raw food diet. I bet a lot of you have even considered trying it or wanting to try it, but are worried about the cost in time and money, and the issue of food contamination.
So I was excited to have come across this book by Maggie Rhines called “Going Rawr! Dog Lover's Compendium". Forget about stuffy old textbooks. This book, which is available in downloadable format, goes into the practical nitty gritty of feeding your dog raw food. It has great lists and tips on how to start and keep your dog on this type of diet – from sourcing your food, handling, preparing, storing and serving it. And no matter if your dog is a day-old pup or a grand daddy; you’ll be feeding him healthy raw food in no time at all!
Definitely something you should read BEFORE you start your dog on a raw food diet. Get the full scoop: Click the banner below.
