Looking For The Best Puppy Food?

So, you have a brand new puppy and you want to know what

the best puppy food is for them. It's definitely not an easy task when it comes to searching for the best food.

Here are some great tips that will hopefully help you find just the right food for your puppy!

Tips For Choosing The Best Puppy Food

Here are 4 tips to help you choose the best puppy food for your new companion!

1. The simple truth is, if a dog food is high quality and all natural you don't need to feed a puppy food. The best puppy food is formulated according to the nutritional profile of AAFCO (American Association of Feed Control Officials) for ALL stages of life.

2. Always make sure there is a good source of protein listed in the first 5 ingredients of the puppy food. The two best sources of protein are chicken meal and catfish. Most people don't realize it but chicken meal has much more protein in it than regular chicken does because all the water has been removed.

Chicken meal then would be the best choice. Catfish is also a good protein source and has essential oils in it.

Best Food For Puppies

The Best Puppy Food Has NO Corn or Wheat

3. The best puppy food does not have wheat, glutens, dairy, corn or soy in it. These ingredients can be very hard on a puppy and difficult to digest.

A puppy food can say all natural and sound like a great food for your puppy (corn and wheat are indeed natural) but just because it's natural doesn't mean it's necessarily good for them.

Dogs can become allergic over time to grains like corn and wheat, so starting them off on these grains is not a good idea.

The Best Puppy Food Contains NO By Products

4. The best puppy food should have NO by-products in it. Stay away from by-products! If you don't know what a by product is, it's the "leftovers" after the best meat has been removed.

This could include anything from chicken heads to intestines, etc. Very yucky thought! Many commercial puppy foods add these to their food.......... So read your labels closely. Your precious puppy is counting on you!
