Feed Your Pup The Best

— by

To say I love my pup is an understatement. If you’re like me, you are going to feed your pup the best. Dogs are with you through thick and thin. Bringing you warmth on cold nights and comfort when a hug is needed. And they need you too. Like us, dogs need love, comfort, security, mental stimulation, and good food. I recently found TruDog and LOVE the quality and variety of these products.

A Quality Diet

Dogs need a high protein diet. Aside from serving straight up protein, vegetables and rice are good accompaniments. This doesn’t mean that you have to cook fresh for your dog, although if you have the time and the means, why wouldn’t you? But for the rest of us, being mindful of what you are serving is all you have to do.

What to look for when feeding your pup the best –

Check the label on the kibble;

  • the first ingredient should be some sort of meat; beef, lamb, turkey, chicken
  • include sweet potato, peas, rice, or grains; these will give your dog energy
  • have vegetables, maybe some fruit too
  • no fillers… the idea is that you can read the ingredients and you know what you are serving your fur baby

Options for Feeding Your Pup The Best

You have so many options of food to feed your pup, but understanding quality and what your dog needs to be in optimal health is simple if you know what to look for. With so many choices today, once you have the quality down, its just a matter of preference.

Up until recently, you could serve your dog wet or dry food. Now, freeze dried is also an option.

TruDog

TruDog is brand of dog food, treats, and supplements that is freeze dried raw food. They also have a product line focused around dental care.

Here’s what I’ve tried my dog on:

Jerky: 100% all natural no grains, no fillers, no preservatives or additives; rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals

Beef Liver Treats: vitamin-rich beef liver, a nutritional powerhouse disguised as a yummy treat; no additives, no fillers

Raw Food Topper: a healthy, wholesome, delicious way to boost your dog’s nutrition; this product is an enhancement to whatever you are serving to your dog as a meal. Just sprinkle some one top. Some added benefits: it supports healthy gums and teeth, and a strong immune system. I added a little warm water to a mix of kibble and raw food topper; my dog Lil went bananas!

The Take Away

High quality food is key to a healthy life for your dog. Add in mental stimulation and exercise and you will have a very happy dog! Space to run and a yard is good for them too. Check TruDog for some dog treats and food your pup will love.Their blog is informative too.
