They are also free of corn, grain, wheat, soy, potatoes and potato starch. Potatoes have been identified as a high-glycemic binder for dog food and may cause potential problems with diabetic dogs.

She shared her knowledge on how traditional Chinese medicines and herbs can make each dog their best dog.
