** In the "Whole
Dog Journal", NOT recomended list of dry dog foods.
Most brands of
dog food include by-products and chemical preservatives. The use
of low quality products and chemical preservatives may be associated
with dry skin, allergic reactions, dental disease, poor health
and degenerative organ dysfunction.
There is no sprayed-on additive or greasy
coating to make the taste acceptable. Ordinary dog foods are extruded
under high pressure and extreme temperatures and then sprayed
with fat and other products in order to encourage dogs to eat.
Oven-baking changes hard to digest starches
into easy to digest dextrins, which are readily absorbed into
your dog's system. The secret to Flint River Ranch's great nutrition
is how many nutrients are present in the dog's food and how efficiently
they are utilized when digested. The good value is baked-in, not
sprayed on.
It's best to introduce
Super Premium foods by mixing with your dog's usual food and increasing
the amount of Flint River Ranch over several days. It will take
time for your dog to adjust to the rich, easy to digest, Super Premium
quality. A sudden change in any food source may be a shock to your
dog's digestive system. You may notice a loose stool. If so, reduce
the amount being fed until your dog adjusts.
Feed your dog twice a day. Food requirements
vary depending on climate, breed of dog and exercise activity.
Feed an amount that will maintain your dog's weight.
