The absence of Wheat in your Dog's food, can help him in many ways. It can help fight allergies that are associated with dog food containing wheat. There are other areas of your dogs nutrition that also suffer from feeding him dog food containing wheat.

As humans we have always been told to eat wheat in our diet. Whole wheat is far different that the wheat used in your dogs food.

There are a host of ingredients added to your dogs food. These contain wheat gluten, proteins, toxic fillers, non nutritional additives and fillers for bulking the food.

Is there such a thing as wheat free dog food? Sure there is. But it is harder to find and usually less common to find. Why? Because the major pet food manufacturers, don't care as much about your pets health, as they do about profit. This certainly includes puppies and adult dogs.

Some dogs are actually very allergic to wheat and wheat fillers. I am not sure, that in today's day and age, that public demand for a greater diet or that greater restrictions be implemented by the manufacturers will in fact change anything. I say this, because it's the bottom line profit that will dictate ingredients, fillers, non nutritional proteins and the like that the manufacturer will use. Some of the major brands, and the higher end dog foods, have already begun implementing just such measures.
