How to choose and buy dog food

 Dog food needs to be carefully selected

The ingredient list is particular: dog food has different tastes. At present, there are "beef flavor" and "chicken flavor" on the market. The composition list of professional pet food is descending from large to small by weight. Therefore, we should pay attention to the proportion of each component in the composition table when purchasing. If the package of a certain dog food says "chicken flavor", but the ingredients behind the package, chicken is not ranked first, then it proves that the chicken content of this dog food is not high.

Meat ingredients can be identified: to distinguish the "purity" of dog food, do a small test. Prepare several brands of dog food, several bowls full of water, and a microwave oven. Next, soak the dog food in a bowl and microwave for two minutes. After heating, open the door of the microwave oven, you can smell the meat smell of dog food. People with a good sense of smell can tell whether it is beef or chicken. Of course, some dog food is not pure meat, and even some pungent. Through this small experiment, we can accurately select the food that dogs like.

Recognize dog food in English: raw materials should contain at least one kind of fresh meat, preferably edible grade. When reading this content, we should pay special attention. For example, shaniken is chicken, and chicken meal is chicken powder. Some dealers will deliberately misinterpret meat powder as meat, so as to confuse the quality of the two. Meat meal is dried animal tissue after oil extraction, which is essentially different from fresh meat. Try not to use raw materials to express ambiguous dog food. According to the American Feed Management Association, the highest grades are meat and poultyr, followed by meat meat and poultry meal. When selecting, the first ingredient must be meat meal or Poul try meal, not cereal, because meat provides far more protein than grain. If dog food contains meat by-product, it may be leftovers.

Buy bulk heavy hygiene: many members choose bulk dog food because of its low price. However, the production date of bulk dog food can not be confirmed, and the container sealing degree is very poor, so it is not suitable to buy too much at one time.

How to buy dog food

1. Not necessarily the more expensive, the better. Take a bag of Amos, for example, most of them are smuggled from Hong Kong, from which dealers have tripled the price.

2. A lot of domestic dog food is quite good, and the raw materials collected locally are relatively fresh. There are too many chemical components in the imported food.

3. The shorter the shelf life of dog food, the better. Because the labeling time is too long, there are too many preservatives.

4. The more irregular the particles, the better. All dry grains are first crushed into small pieces and then pressed into granules by mold. The smooth outside indicates that too much expansion agent is put in.

5. Distinguish internal and external fuel injection. The technology of external spray is simple, the nutrition is not easy to keep fresh, and the internal spray is better.

6. The color of grain should be moderate, not too heavy or too light.

7. The palatability of dog food does not depend on people's sense of smell. If you think the food tastes good, 80% of the dogs don't like it, and the nutrition must be poor.

Should dog food be soaked or not

Because the young dog's teeth do not grow well, the dog food should be soaked for it to eat. But if the adult dog eats soft food for a long time, stones will be formed on the teeth. Therefore, the habit of eating soft dog food should be changed. But pay attention, at the beginning, to control the amount, because there is a lot of difference between the volume of dog food and that of dog food, so don't let the dog eat too much. What's more, a lot of dogs eat very hard, which makes people feel like they don't chew. In fact, if you give them hard dog food, they can quickly learn to chew and don't worry about digestion.
