Some economy brands of pet food are made from lower quality ingredients with lower energy values and lower grade proteins that aren't easily absorbed. Because of this, many of the nutrients in these foods pass right through your pet's system, which means you need to dispense a larger quantity in order for your animal to receive the same amount of nutrition they'd get from a premium food, like Petcurean. The proof is in the poop: you feed less, your pet absorbs more nutrition, and you scoop less. Who doesn't love that?
March 17th - 23rd is Poison Prevention Week, a great time to get educated in case of an emergency. The best way to be safe is to know the risks, be prepared, and to have a plan.
Nutrition plays a role in all aspects of your pets life and is one of the most important things that you can provide for your pet. Focusing on what your pet is designed to eat, not what is convenient, is so important.
Winter can be long and dreary. At least as humans, we can hop in the car to go to work, school, or even the gym, to blow off steam and break up the monotony. But what about our dogs? Mental and physical stimulation are both incredibly important parts of the lives of our dogs.
Do you have an emergency kit ready for your pet? In Michigan, we aren't usually blasted with violent weather patterns, but we should still be prepared in case of an emergency. We never know when we may actually need to evacuate our home and we never want to leave our pets behind. If your pets are like mine, they are an integral part of the family and have become your fur-kids.
