There is food made by specialists. With all good ingredients. Special food for different ages and sizes of dogs. Food for dogs with digestion problems, food to strengthen bones and teeth, or food for diabetic dogs.
All these options do exists. How could I prepare food for my dog that`s better than what the experts do?
It`s true, the product spectrum on dog or pet food is endless and growing. And there are good reasons for some of the diet foods offered. Dogs do develop more and more the so called modern -human- diseases.
Unfortunately these new dog diseases are men- and food-made. Because we do feed our dogs the same way we eat ourselves. Convenient. Fast. Preserved.
The book "Katzen würden Mäuse kaufen" by german author Hans-Ulrich Grimm (english "Cats would buy mice")(*) gives a frighteningly honest, startling overview of not only how we feed out pets sick, but also how pet food industry uses our good will to do the best we can for our animals and sells us unworthy and unethical components as high-quality and high-priced feed with false promises, veils and very clever marketing.
"Katzen würden Mäuse kaufen" is the essential book for everyone, who is in the slightest way interested in what his best buddy`s food bowl contains every day.
