Why should I buy expensive dog food like Eukanuba when I can buy 100% complete dog food at the farm store for just pennies a pound?
The decision of which pet food to feed can be mind-boggling. All pet foods commonly found on the market must pass “minimum” standards of ingredient assurance and quality. This does not mean that all pet foods are alike! The pet food market is a multi-billion dollar industry and many inferior quality foods are sold in huge quantities because they appeal to us, in their texture, color, name or price. The statement that “you get what you pay for” certainly applies to pet foods. We feed and recommend premium pet foods. These diets cost more than the “price brand” pet foods sold in farm stores or groceries. Why? The ingredients are consistent and of the highest quality. Companies such as Iams and Hill’s also produce prescription foods which treat or help manage disease! They may cost more per pound but you feed smaller quantities because your pet receives greater nutrition in every bite. Stool output is less because they contain more digestible ingredients. Coat quality is greatly improved
