Many of us are concerned with ways that we can encourage green living practices for our families because we want them to be as healthy as possible, and we want to keep the earth healthy too. Don't forget the family dog! Spot can also live a green, healthy life, and one of the first places to start is to all natural dog food. Providing your canine friend with all natural pet food is important for their health—let's take a bite out of a few of the benefits:
- There are less allergen causing products in all natural foods. Preservatives and wheat or corn meal found in regular dog foods can cause hair loss, itching, and other allergy symptoms in sensitive dogs.
- Since natural dog food rarely uses meals, there is a smaller chance of harmful or diseased products being included in the food.
- Hormone free chicken, beef, or fish used to manufacture your dog food impacts the environment less, since less hormone-injected animal waste is being placed into the aquifer.
One person has commented on this article. 1. UntitledAmy, UnregisteredSo true! There are so many dogs with "allergies" these days and so many of them see relief with only a change in diet. It just seems that everyone wants to go to the vet instead of investing money in a better food.
Also, watch out for ingredients sourced in China. I researched a number of companies that I thought wouldn't be sourcing there and they were. Even if the label says "made in the usa". Sad! |
