Canadian Pet Food Companies
Great Canadian Dog Food?
I recently bought a bichon frise though a pet seller who got it from a breeder. She gave me a bag of dog food from Great Canadian Dog Food which I think my puppy had been eating. I am converting my dog to Blue Buffalo as recommended by a friend but recent recalls make me wonder if I should switch back to Great Canadian Dog Food.
Great Canadian Dog Food ingredients include non GMO corn, pork and poutry meals, wheat shorts, wheat middings, corn gluten meal,…
I heard that corn and wheat are bad for dogs. But the company’s website (http://thegreatcanadiandogfood.ca/faq.php#16) says it’s just a marketing scheme used by Pet Food companies and that they have specially cooked the corn so that it is digestable.
Who should I trust? The company’s statement (and the breeder, I assume he is using this brand for the dogs too), or the generally-accepted knowledge?
I think that there’s better foods available from looking at the ingredient lists. Feed a good quality meat based diet with few grains. Many dogs have allergies to wheat and corn. More and more are coming up with chicken allergies too. Mine are doing great on a fish and potato blend.
