Newman’s Own Organic Dry Dog Food!!!?

I have currently switched my german shepherd puppy (5 1/2 months) to Newman’s Own Organic Dry Dog food… She absolutely loves this food… It’s over 70 % Organic and I just read that they are eliminating menadione dimethylprimidinol sulfate from their ingredients as of March 3, 2007… So basically everything else in the ingredients is organic and all natural… I have searched for people’s comments on the internet, but this food is too new… Does anyone have any opinions on this food? Does anyone feed this food to their pet as well??? Thank you

I just read an article about Newman’s Own Organic human foods today. They apparently are made with basically the same *ingredients* as non-organic products – except that theirs are grown organically – without pesticides, fertilizers,etc. PLUS the profit benefits charities. Don’t know specifically about the dog food – but the company’s products and goals sound good to me.

Putting A Elevated Dog Bowl To Good Use

Making use of a elevated double dog bowl feeder for a pet or animal can be a good way to go about making sure feeding occurs as needed. In our breakneck, fast-paced world, it’s a sad fact that a beloved animal might not get the attention it deserves, on occasion. With these feeders, at least their food needs can be met.

The best of these elevated dog bowl feeders also have a cold storage compartment, where you can keep a can or two of wet foods for that special treat in place of dry feed. Some of the best even get the can and open and dispense the food, all automatically! All of the top units use electronics to control proper feeding that’s been set up by you. They can dole out up to ten or so pounds in a single sitting.

Assembly of these units is quick and easy. They all come with easily-understood guides and instruction manuals. Some even have video CDs and online help available for when you’re just starting out with automatic feeding for your pet. They can help to determine food amounts appropriate for your pet, which is a big help these days.

Most of these elevated double dog bowl machines handle up to two dogs or other animals. You can set up feeding and watering at periodic times throughout the day or even just one or two times, if you don’t want the animal to get at too much food or have him or her on a diet.

Elevated or raised feeders can also be bought. These are perfect for tall dogs or for animals that may have arthritis or other conditions which prevent them from stooping over a low-set bowl or dish. This makes it ideal in the case where a larger dog with arthritis needs more food, but set higher-up.

Most of these automatic feeders are set up to accommodate animals in the fifteen to forty pound range. There are specialty feeders, though, and they can take on much bigger dogs or pets, if need be. None of them are very complicated or difficult to use, and they all dole out food with relative ease.

Most any double dog bowl feeder will come with a hopper of about 1.5 gallons of food capacity. In that size, you can place about 1.8 gallons of dry food in it, and it puts it back out safely and efficiently. All good feeders also have a watering feature, so that both feeding and watering of the animal can occur simultaneously.

It’s recommended by most vets that stainless steel or ceramic bowls be used when feeding pets or animals. Plastic bowls can become gouged or scratched, and potentially-harmful bacteria can hide in a scratch. If the feeder you buy has plastic bowls, exchange them for stainless steel. And never put wet food in the hopper. Most automatic feeders aren’t set up to dispense those kinds of items. If you take sensible steps and use the feeder as its meant to be, both you and your pet will come out on top.

I’m looking for a healthy a healthy dry food for my dog?

I have a Chihuahua and I’m concerned about the typical dog foods available on the market that I’ve been feeding to him. I want to give him a dry food that is healthy, doesn’t have tons of ingredients(not to mention things I can’t pronounce), no preservatives, and perhaps something organic. Not to mention a food that has small pieces for my little dog. Does Petco, Petsmart, Wal-Mart or Stop and Shop have anything that you would recommend?

At Petsmart, Authority is rated high on consumer reports.
There is nothing at WalMart or the grocers that is worth feeding, and that includes Science Diet.

Give Your Pet The Gift Of Health With Organic Dog Food

Pets give so much more than they take. Responsible guardians give their fuzzy, lovable buddy the best that nature has to offer in Organic Dog Food. Your family pet thrives on the health you bestow with great tasting, 100% complete and balanced nutrition. Feeding your doggy well gives him all he needs to live long, play hard and love you unabashedly.

Organic dog food is made from only the finest, natural ingredients and infused with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals to keep your best friend in optimal condition. Canine nutrition is certified by the USDA National Organic Program and then reviewed and approved by a certifying agency. The label “certified organically grown” is only applicable after this third-party scrutiny and approval process.

Easily digestible, certified pesticide-free, nutritionally complete, the finest canine nutrition proudly uses meat that is comparable to butcher shop quality as the predominant ingredient. Free-range chicken and turkey are assuredly fed only a pure diet completely free of pesticides, without antibiotics, without growth hormones and no bio-engineering. By-products or by-product meal is never used. The meat is combined with pure brown rice, barley, flaxseed, peas, carrots and apples for natural sources of fiber and carbs. Prebiotics and probiotics are part of the formulations for digestive health and are available in dry food, wet food and treats. Each formula guarantees optimal requirements of fat, protein, Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals and fiber, necessary for canine health.

Pesticide-free pet diet lines are available in formulas for Puppy (Dry), Adult Canine Formula (Dry), Canned Canine Formula and canine treats. Dry canine Dog Nutrition remains veterinarian recommended as a primary source of nutrition and good, oral health. All canine formulas are highly palatable and easily digestible, 100% complete, balanced diets.

Your puppies dietary beginnings affect future health. The science of canine development is applied to each formula in organic dog food. The special requirements of a puppy are found in the appropriate calibrations of fat, protein, vitamins, and energy that bring your puppy to adulthood in good health. Puppy dry bites taste great and satisfy the chewing instinct that aids teething and promotes dental health.

USDA National Organic Program not only guarantees content within canine diets that bear their logo, but equally important is what is missing. Approved canine diets do not contain any chemicals typically used on farmlands for pest control, livestock are not subjected to inhumane living conditions nor are they fed antibiotics or hormones. Canine formulations stamped with the logo for assurance provide only pure, natural, chemical free, hormone/antibiotic-free, unadulterated premium sustenance for the life of your pet.

Food-safety precautions include USDA, state-of-the-art, mandatory sterilizing methodologies at processing facilities. Regulations in formal documentation are coupled with compliance for 24-hour line shutdowns for mandatory cleaning processes standardized by the USDA. Full compliance must be consistently met to attain the USDA stamp of approval on packaging.

America sat up and took notice of the importance of choices in feeding our pets during the nightmare of poisonings that resulted in tragic pet deaths from imported canine meals. Safety in natural canine nutrition is assured with unparalleled, regulatory quality-control that mandates the highest standards for every element of the process of these products.

What is the best food for vegetarian dogs: natural organic vegetarian food or commercial vegetarian food?

As you undoubtedly know, many dogs are fed vegetarian or vegan diets, with excellent results. (never forget that dogs are descended from omnivores, not obligate carnivores, like cats)

It is pure fallacy that dogs can’t live happy, healthy lives on veg’n diets.

Many dogs, including many, many Dalmatians, have a physiological problem which necessitates a vegetarian diet.

Until a few years ago, the oldest living dog was a 27-year-old Border Collie fed entirely vegan from the time it was a puppy.

Clearly, dogs are not harmed by being fed a properly devised veg’n diet.

That said, I’ve never fed a dog a veg’n diet. I will say that the more wholesome the ingredients, the better the diet. Things like cooking and processing can dramatically reduce the nutritional value of foods.
