PETS
by Janene Zakrajsek
All Pet Food is Not Created Equal.
Feeding your pets is a lot like feeding your family – what
they intake has a direct effect on their health, behavior,
skin and coat, energy level, and so much more. As the
saying goes, 'what you don't know won't hurt you'... well
not totally so when it comes to choices in pet food. Do
you really know what goes into pet food and how it's ac-
tually made? You might be shocked to learn the truth.
Choosing the ‘best’ pet foods is not as easy as it seems.
The quality and source of ingredients, the food manufac-
turing practices, and your animal’s individual lifestyle
needs should all be considered when determining the
right diet. If you are like most dog and cat guardians you
may think feeding your pets should be as easy as scoop-
ing dry kibble from a bag and pouring it into a bowl, how-
ever you may want to think again—and, think outside the
bag for a healthier alternative.
