If you notice, most of the recommended dog food by veterinarian's are usually the most popular and most advertised. I can't help but think that since a veterinarian is running a business, and that business is about making money and showing a profit, would this be a conflict of interests? Or put another way, just another profit center and built in revenue generating tool. He is recommending to you what he is selling.

We are deluged with advertisements, promotions television commercials and rhetoric about who manufactures the best dog food. Even going to the local grocery store and walking down the pet food isle, in itself very confusing. We generally then begin to look at price to be the determining factor. Buying on line isn't much better either, if you don't know what to look for, what ingredients are good and what are bad.

As dog lovers, we tend to listen to other people, and the flood of advertising that all claim to be the most nutritious, well balanced and healthy dog food on the market. This is wonderful to hear, because, we all want that for our best friends, don't we. On the surface and in reality, this makes it simple and easy for us to take the easy way out. By that, I mean, we don't have to do any research or spend any time to verify what we are feeding our best friend, and the ingredients contained therein, are in fact, healthy, nutritious and promote a long lifespan.

Most dog food in grocery stores, on line or recommended by your veterinarian, canned or dry are all the same. They are for the most part, not a good choice for your dog. While they all claim to provide 100% of their daily dose of vitamins and minerals, they also provide dangerous ingredients for your dog. Most all are loaded with cheap, non nutritional, and toxic fillers, that not only hurt your dog, but provide no nutritional value what so ever. In fact, these additives, fillers and preservatives are so toxic, they can cause severe illnesses and in some cases, even death.

Finding out if a veterinarian recommended dog food or any other dog food is right for your pet, you must first start with the ingredients. The only thing left may be to alter what you feed your dog, based on any allergies, or any abnormalities he or she may have.
