I appreciate your video, it’s so nice hearing someone speak so opening about this. There are so many of us working in the pet industry who truly care about these dogs and it breaks our heart to be fighting this constantly.

So happy I came across this video. I started my new puppy on Open Farm no grain food (breeder was feeding Royal Cain) the Vet tried to convince me that grain food is best and I need to go back to Royal Cain 🤦🏾‍♀️. My baby is having no issues so I’ll continue feeding him grain free food.

I love your information. Thank you for sharing these videos. I said to a vet one time that my dog's digestive issues resolved when I fed him a raw/or semi raw diet of just human food meaning meat and other foods along with a dog probiotic. The vet said my dog was missing out on important things from dried pet food. I felt disgust hearing it because they he was not addressing the main problem = inflammation in the gut lining. Instead, he needed validation to hear that dog food from purina and other brands is the best thing for my dog. The proof is in the experience. If the dog cannot digest it = there's something wrong with the food.

[@Elijah8890]

Absolutely right!!!!

Think about it. I have been reading that beef provides tremendous benefit to the body, yet what is it the elites want to take from us? Beef.

[@colossusX1]

lol - eggs alone provide a complete amino acid profile. It's coming out now for humans too that fats and protein (equating calories of course) are better for us then excess carbs. Believing Purina is like believing the food pyramid is actually good nutritional advice for humans.

Such great info! 4 weeks ago my best friend's GSD went in to be neutered and have stomach stitched. He was a little over a year old. Healthy dog. He didn't wake up. Heart stopped on table. She had autopsy done. His heart was 20% bigger than it should have been. I was on pins and needles when my dobe had same surgery last week. I have been aware of DCM for several years now. But her dog was first one that died that hadn't been diagnosed. His preop came back fine for surgery. I thought I understood about DCM. I know it is genetic and I know my male dobe has markers. I am torn whether to treat it if it does become apparent he or my new pup have it. If there is a natural approach for treatment I am all in. But I don't want a dog on meds the rest of its life...just as I would rather die and not be on meds for survival.

I have my chihuahua brain free all his life and he had heart murmur since he was like 4. I continued til he was in heart failure at 11 and died.

I have a female American Staffordshire/ Argentinian Dogo cross and a female Boxer cross who I cook for. They have Royal Canin puppy food kibble right now which they have access to 24/7, which they dont eat much of unless suddenly hungry. Two questions 1. Both my girls are under 2 years old, is it ok/healthier or the opposite to feed them the puppy (26 to 45kg adult weight) kibble? And 2. Vets in France say there should be no cereal in food given to dogs - is this correct?

There is no difference between grain free and grain foods for dogs. Both types of foods contain sugar. Grain free food have dried fruit which is literally sugar. The key is making sure your dog gets plenty of exercise.

[@momlissa]

Colostrum is the first milk to be produced by any mammal, including humans. So colostrum is extremely nutrient dense and will be produced by goats, cows, etc in the first few days of milking anything. Goats milk is milk from a goat at any time. Colostrum is yellow, milk is white.

I made food supplemented with Taurine, herbal, homeopathic the works. He had the prescribed meds. They made him weaker. We tried everything. The majority of food at all the pet stores contained the so called ingredients that were causing problems. All of my pets have crossed rainbow bridge. They were large breed 14, 15, 16 and 17 years. One had cancer, leukemia, epi and myelopathy. They lived long and happy lives always coming first in our family.

I just recently found your channel and just subscribed. I am horrified to hear the vet mention Royal Canin dog food as I feed my 1 year old Olde English Bulldogge that food (Royal Canin Bulldog Food) and thought I had done the proper research to find the best possible food for him. He has no current health problems and the food did seem to cure his dry nose problems when I switched him from his puppy food to this food, however it does have some wheat and wheat gluten and brewers rice. Is this food just overpriced trickery from the pet food industry? If anyone could chime in on this who has knowledge of the Olde English Bulldogge breed, I would sure appreciate it.

He got her from a client that kids grew and gone. A puppy when youngest kis was about 14. / 15, so the dog then spent most time crated, ( no more, she has a couch , ) He takes her everywhere, shecis 5/6 now.. its been 3 years with her. And SHE BOOKS!!! first time she was around, but 3 days running around tge areea. She got a chicken st a neighbors but im not sure if she was stunned by it or just got hungry, but i got her across the street from that house . She too string for me to Walk, or bring to a park to run.. im hoping to get her "swomming" like his old doggle used to. He sweats by purina, yellow bag, she likes it,, but WOW! She becomes the problem child. . so she is on a leash outside. I got her a sound collar, with a key fob remote. he wouldnt use it.. ( two years later, is talking about it, because she goes for his daughters neighbors chickens. I think he said she "gets" them. But when i dog sit, i feed her differently, 4/8 oz meat. 4beef,8 chicken.. ill give her some vegtables, a few berties some melon. On tip of a handful of the dogfood. And she is way more controllable. I think she NEEDS TO BOOK. its like watching a Deer.. jumps up and tuens midair, and runs like 25mph. Wont come.. so i just go back inside and start cooking till she sneaks in for begging, then close the door. And REWATD HER WITH A BITE AND CUDDLE "GOOD GIRL FOR COMING BACK IN. but he wouldnt approve of guving her table food for one, and praise second for taling off She had bad original parents. And they got her for the kids, who did not take her when they moved out. So she was loved, but not much interacted with. But. Am i right on the dog food carbs?? Can it make a dog more hyper? My friend has had dogs all 55 years of his life. Hunting, boating, trapping, going to work as a plummer. Always rescues or takeovers. And never has he had such a hard time getting to alpha in them. She is also a trasher .. lol got to lock the trash bin inside. She wint donit when your looking, waits till you fall asleep. So i know she isnt "simple" i dont think costcof dog foods an issue for him, but im ready to soend what he pays me to care for her a few times a week on sirloins. Lol

[@emalior5000]

Didn't even the fda say legumes were the link to dcm and not grain free. All the grain free brands added legumes instead of grains. So basically they replaced one cheap carb with another. The vets and fda states foods high in legumes and potatoes may cause dcm. So isn't the simple solution to remove legumes and potatoes but still keep it grain free. No one has ever said it was the lack of grains that caused DCM. Very deceptive tactics by all involved.

[@joanies6778]

Karma will take care of those big bad players, sooner or later. Before I found any of these videos on pet health, I just switched my new foster pup off Purina Adult Complete, which is what he was fed in the pound. He wouldn't eat half the time until I started putting moist toppers and/or chicken broth on his kibble. He had itching and dandruff, which is why I switched to Loyal Life Grain Free Salmon. He still itches some, but his coat looks fabulous, and now I'm adding a little raw goat milk daily, which has nature's antihistamine, hoping that will help. (I am looking for an even better kibble to rotate to that has better processing methods.) Now many pets are getting sick from Purina, among other brands, so the switch was just in time. People don't realize if we are feeding non-organic grains in our dog's diet, there's a high risk of feeding him/her grains that were sprayed with herbicides, or that was grown in soil that retains those toxic sprays for years. I won't eat non-organic corn or wheat, so why would I feed that to my fur baby? I can not afford organic kibble, nor organic raw food, so I opt for grain free kibble with select ingredients and add meat and seafood toppers for a percentage of his diet. Dogs don't eat grains in nature... it's a filler.

We should not be talking about what is the best brand of dog food, just like human nutrition doesn't revolve around feeding a certain brand of food but instead macros, calories, ingredients etc. So. Let's say protein carbs fats. What type and how much of each is best? We probably don't need to feed any carbohydrates but just meat can get expensive so maybe we can include some cheap filler carbs. Would raw mince beef mixed with basmati rice be a good diet? Would i need to add some vegetables and maybe a litte bit of low GI berries? People stop talking about brands and start only talking about ingredients, macros and calories.

What are your thoughts on the higher carb % in Carna4? Looking to move from Origin.

[@umboar2010]

Carna4 is is among her top recommended dog kibbles.

[@luisvelazquez3571]

Yet Champion/Orijen released a grain inclusive formula and some will only recommend this version! 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@ouronia1]

thank you for these informational nutrition discussions. so grateful. Carol

[@Saksfraud]

Hi what about iams is that a bad one anyone had any experience with that…

[@andreadarrar5540]

Wow, just unreal. And Mars who bought Orijen and Acana will now lessen the quality of those foods and not tell the consumers.

[@johnvirk5053]

Is there Seeds oil, Oats and wheat Free? cuz these are slowly killing them dogs.

[@noneyobuisnes]

Are legumes bad? I’ve herd that’s the thing to look out for.

[@RodrigoRodrigues-qq8pr]

I believe legumes are bad if they're used to much and to supplement protein instead of animal protein.

[@timbaer8525]

‘Dogs have zero need for carbohydrates’? Well, what about the carb content still in ‘grain free’ food? They still have 20-25% carbohydrates (same as grain including). Just it’s not from grain sources. I don’t think I buy it, there’s nothing wrong with grains like rice and oats.. us humans consider them quality food, actually as a bodybuilder they’re a better carb/energy source than veggies. Those facts tell me either the makers of this video don’t understand what they’re talking about or think (likely rightfully so) people watching wouldn’t see that information or even know to look.

[@bonniepeters8576]

Dobermans are high risk for DCM have had two die from that

[@DobieCasa]

[@rjh2772]

Never trust the FDA

[@Theeezfoo77]

So can anyone clear up this "Science " talk ... Grain free is bad ?? Or it's doesn't matter??

[@craigfischer2240]

I feed my dog Carna4

[@firegfx8664]

What breed do you have, and is it as good as other people say it is?

[@craigfischer2240]

I have a Papillon, I have done so much research to find a food that is as healthy as I can. I recommend Carna4, Smack CaniSource Grand Cru or fresh cooked food!

[@poncho1710]

Sorry grain free not brain free lol

[@janelle4700]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@biblebill6206]

See Matt 15 : 27 Niv bible . Dogs must have grains, or they will develop heart problems . Listen , just about everything you hear or read today , TV radio , internet is false there is no truth out there as a great man of God predicted for our modern times about 4000 yrs ago. See Isa 59 : 15 Niv bible . Also , you have to make an effort to find truth not just be lazy accept what others say who will lead you astray .

[@roudango]

They irony of warning others of falsehoods yet blatantly misinterprets a bible verse and its meaning.

[@biblebill6206]

How so ?@@roudango

[@user-sx7zo3ru6m]

don't own animals if you don't feed species appropriate. if you have questions, ask an expert. that means someone who not only breeds, but has competed with their animal. in dogs, it'll be apbt, greyhound, and sled dogs. now, they may not answer you, but they won't bs you. dogs don't swim in the ocean for sardines, oysters, etc and they don't nibble on sesame seeds or 'toppers.' they will nibble on grass, nuts, and berries etc. cows get goiters from corn feed, a king cobra will look sick and/or die if you feed it mice..... dogs eat meat, whole animals or %'d out. if someone doesn't like it, go get a fish.... then feed it correctly. you can't feed a tiger mcdonalds because you think it gives him all the necessary dietary vitamins and nutrition. kibble is around 30% nutrition, so even the worst 'unbalanced' raw diet is better. a perfectly nutritioned and conditioned athlete on a chain isn't animal abuse, but feeding couch potatoes a bad diet to enrich 'vets' and animal companies, surely is....

[@Madronaxyz]

Next time please interview of veterinarian that knows the research. This veterinarian was heavy on thought experiments and very light on actual research. She said, "I don't know" too many times

[@biblebill6206]

Whether you believe it or not the men who wrote the bible were inspired by God and "interestingly" the book advocates grains for dogs . See Matt 15 : 27 [Niv] bible Also , recent science articles are showing grains are very important for dogs . Google it !!!

[@stelaqendrimgashi9251]

My dogs doctor said to fed her wheat grain because scientist found out their having heart disease.

[@derekdehaas3929]

I just got on taste of the wild few months ago now I am stopping after this bag is gone. I do add warm water, egg, Sandrine, liver, gizzard raw meats.
