Dog Food Analysis is part of one of the largest and longest running dog forum communities on the internet. They are not related to a pet food manufacturer. They have analysed the ingredients in the pet food and rated the food based on the ingredients. The better the ingredients, the higher the rating.

What do they look for?

* Lots of meat, few fillers.
* Not TOO much protein. Some veterinary research suggests that feeding high protein dry foods to puppies may cause musculoskeletal disorders.
* They avoid by-products, colors, flavors, sweeteners and preservatives which are banned in humans (such as BHT, BHA, Ethoxyquin, Propyl Gallate).

Too often manufacturers allow small bones to go through. If your pet food says in the ingredients that it contains fish, have a close look and see if you can find fish bones in the food. EVEN IF THE PACKAGE SAYS DEBONED!. If there are bones there, return the pet food to the store where you bought it and demand your money back.

Also, some food with fish is preseved with Ethoxyquin. Ethoxyquin is a known carcinogen which is banned for use in humans, so it should not be served to dogs. Many pet foods state on the lable that they clear do not use Ethoxyquin.
