Dog Food News

All About The Latest Developments and Trends in Dog Food

Together with 'Best Dog Food Guide', I have set up a dog food news blog, because there is just so much going on in the world of dog food. The blog site, which is dedicated to dog food, gives me a quick and convenient method of sharing short news messages, articles and anecdotes with you.

Trends in dog food like humanization (dogs becoming family members, dogs getting beauty treatments, dog beer and gourmet food), buzz words (organic dog food, holistic dog food and natural dog food), functional treats and food supplements, nutraceuticals and new dog food ingredients such as omega-3 fish oil, prebiotics for dogs and probiotics for dogs etc. drive new developments in dog food to create super healthy dog food.

Are marketers telling us the truth? Are dog food manufacturers only in it for the money? There is an enormous amount of black and white thinking and fanaticism on the internet. However, I prefer to look at the facts, stay objective and unbiased, and service dog owners like yourself by providing you with valuable information.

Experts that don't seem to agree on dog biology (carnivore versus omnivore), feeding raw meat (yes, do - no, beware of the bacteria), benefits of breed and life stage specific dog foods versus one food for all dogs, etc. A lot is still food for thought and discussion.

The massive pet food recall in March 2007 (USA) has driven many dog owners to home made recipes. Dog food cooking classes and recipe books are getting a real boost from this. I'm awaiting to see the lessons learned from this massive recall, dog food regulations, actions taken by the dog food manufacturers, what legal cases are sued, etc. Any interesting things I come across will be posted on Dog Food Blog.
