The Complete Guide to Dog Food
brands of dog food on the market these days and thousands of varieties within these brands, each claiming to do something different for your dog. This is why we’ve put together this guide to dog food to help you choose the best food to suit your dog’s needs.
What is the Best Dog Food?
That entirely depends on what you’re looking for and the individual requirements of your dog. We do have a list of the best dry dog food brands, but really the answer depends on the needs of your dog. That’s why we’ve broken it down into categories so we can show you the best dog food for each type of dog. A general rule for choosing dog food is to look at the ingredients carefully to make sure they state exactly what it contains. Some dog foods will describe things like ‘22% poultry’ rather than breaking down whether that poultry is chicken, duck, or goose. These vague descriptions usually mean the food is of lower quality.
Of course, the highest quality dog foods are usually more expensive but just because the price is high, doesn’t mean that the food is better – there are also some great value brands that provide high quality for a reasonable price. Paying a little bit more for high-quality grain-free dog food, for example, can be beneficial as it will keep your dog fuller for longer, meaning you’ll have to buy food less often. Making sure your dog has the right diet can also save you a fortune on vets bills in the long run so it may be worth spending a little bit more to get the right food.

Which Dog Food Should I Buy for my Dog?
Of course, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to that question, but this guide to dog food should help you make a decision. Your choice of dog food obviously depends on what type of dog you have. Some dog foods are more suitable for different sizes and breeds of dogs, as well as being dependent on the age or health of the dog.

How Do I Switch to a New Dog Food?
If you’ve taken a look through our dog food guides and decided to try a new type of food for your dog, then it’s important that you make the change properly. Simply changing food from one type to another can be bad for your dog’s digestive system.
Instead, we recommend making a 7-day transition where you mix the new food with the old food. Start by using mostly the old food and mixing in a bit of the new food and then increase the ratio of the new food every day until it’s just the new food remaining. This gradual switch is better for your dog on the inside and is better for their taste buds – making it less likely for them to reject the new flavours.
For any more help or advice with this, don’t hesitate to contact us in-store or online.
What are the Best Dog Treats?
Choosing a dog food is one thing but your dog’s diet will also consist of other things like dog treats. We’ve also put together a guide on the different types of dog treats available to help you find treats that match your dog’s needs and compliments your choice of dog food.
We understand that choosing dog food isn’t an easy job, that’s why we decided to put together this guide to dog food. Our staff is trained to know which food is best suited to your dog based on their needs and requirements. If you can’t find the answers you need from these blogs, you can browse our full selection of dog food or you can contact us for help in choosing the perfect food for your best friend!
