Posts Tagged ‘Dog Lovers’
We are dog lovers. That is why we breed Dobermans. It is extremely important to us that our dogs and puppies are as healthy as they can be. We live with 3 Dobermans and we want them to be a great representation of the breed. We also want them to be with us for as long as possible and enjoy a long, healthy and quality life.
We were introduced to NuVet pet vitamins by another award winning breeder from New York State. We had not been giving our dogs vitamins. We were feeding them premium large breed puppy food and dog food. We decided since the NuVet was recommended by this breeder, we would try it. We are very glad we did.
We noticed changes in all 3 of our Dobermans.Their coats are softer and really beautiful. Our oldest dog had some weight problems but she looks great now and she has more energy. Before she would sit out when the other 2 dogs would wrestle and play. Now she jumps right in. It is really good to see her acting like a young dog again.
When our female got pregnant, we gave her NuVet pet vitamins through out her pregnancy. I am so glad we did because she needed lots of stamina and energy. She delivered 12 puppies without a problem. The last time we whelped her, before we knew about NuVet, she was tired before she delivered her last puppy in a litter of 8. The dogs on NuVet rebounded much faster after the whelping. Her coat stayed beautiful and she got her energy and appetite back in no time, which was crucial since she needed to nurse 12 pups.
One nice thing about NuVet is, it can be given to dogs of all ages. The fact that NuVet has only natural ingredients and no fillers or additives makes it safe for puppies. As we were weaning our big litter, we started adding crumbled up NuVet tablets into their puppy mush. With a big litter, you are bound to have 1 or 2 puppies that lag behind the rest. With the NuVet pet vitamins, all the pups were strong. By 8 weeks, the puppies averaged 18-20 pounds and were all solid and healthy.
Another great thing about NuVet is, the fact that it has so many health benefits. It fights free radicals, which we know are linked to cancer. It provides overall immune system support and reduces the risk of many common ailments. Some of the health problems targeted by NuVet are, itching and hot spots, allergies, arthritis, premature aging, digestive problems and heart disease.
NuVet pet vitamins are formulated so that all the ingredients work together with the dogs system. It was formulated using human grade, natural ingredients over a period of 8 years. Veterinarians, pharmacists and animal nutritionists worked together to come up with the best vitamin available. There is also a NuVet vitamin specially made for cats and kittens.
We feel good about using NuVet to keep our dogs and puppies as healthy as they can be. We highly recommend Nuvet to everyone and all the families with our puppies have continued to use NuVet. You will feel good about giving it to your cats and dogs because it is the right thing to do to insure a healthy and happy dog or cat.

All dog lovers want the best for their companion, and starting with proper nutrition you will give your pet the basis for a long healthy life. There is no one best dog food on the market today, but many extremely ultra premium or high quality organic dog foods that are excellent choices. Also beware that there are more really bad, low quality, low nutrition, and chemical filled commercial dog foods. The cheaper brands are generally available in the grocery store. The better organic dog foods are usually ordered directly through the company, or offered at high end pet stores.
Increasing your dog’s life span is easily achieved by feeding a properly balanced healthy organic dog food or high premium diet from puppy hood. An all natural healthy diet is as beneficial for your dog as it is for yourself. Improper or poor nutrition can cause diseases, allergies, obesity, and shortened life spans in your dogs.
There are many commercial grade dog food products available at the grocery store, and care must be taken when choosing one. Becoming more diligent in all facets of our lives is quickly becoming the norm, and we should include our pets in our education and improvement of lifestyle.
Here are a few general guidelines to follow when looking at the ingredients on a dog food bag:
Choose a food with high meat content. The first ingredient must be a specified meat. Another one or two meats or meat meal listed in the top 5 ingredients is a bonus, but not necessary. (Meat meal is meat with the moisture removed.)
If the same grain ingredient is used two or more times in the first five ingredients (i.e. “ground brown rice”, brewer’s rice”, “rice flour”, are all the same grain), this is not a well balanced, nutritious product. It is loaded with “filler” and made to look like it is healthy by separating the one ingredient into sub categories, but rice is rice so it should be listed once.
Using high quality grains has become the standard for the premium quality dog food manufacturers, such as barley, brown rice and oatmeal. If the grains are organic, then all the better. Wheat and corn are inferior and useless as a nutritional element in dog food, and used as filler only. Dogs are known to be highly allergic to wheat and corn.
If there are any by-products at all on the ingredient list, pass this dog food by.
There should not be any fillers.
Carcinogenic preservatives do not need to be used, and if they are don’t buy the product. (They will be listed as BHA, BHT, or ethoxyquin.)
Artificial colorings are also cancer causing, and completely unnecessary. You’ll be surprised to see how many products still contain this dangerous ingredient. The dyes will be marked as such – e.g. Red, Blue and Yellow dyes.
No added sugars or corn syrup should be in the ingredient list.
The more organic ingredients listed, the better.
Added glucosamine, chondroitin, pro and prebiotics, flax seed oil, barley, oats or oatmeal, and sunflower oil, are a good thing.
Slowly baked, not extruded, retains the minerals, vitamins and essential goodness of the food.
Hormone free, antibiotic free, pesticide and herbicide free, chemical and preservative free would indicate a high quality premium organic dog food.
And finally, no mystery meats should be in the list. Mystery meat will be listed as simply meat or poultry, rather than chicken or venison. The mystery meat will probably be some horrible rotten road kill, old euthanized animals, and parts of animals that are not edible.
Although the higher quality food might seem more expensive initially, it will work itself out and become cheaper in the long run. The savings in vet bills alone over the life of your pet will pay for the food.
I use a lazy homemade dog food tactic of using a high end organic dog food, and add just a few ounces of poached chicken, or broiled venison every day. The best of both worlds is then achieved for my dogs.
Always be aware, educate yourself and know that the big business of dog food manufacturing is in it for the profit, not the health and welfare of our pets. That is up to us. Just do the absolute best you can for your pet and it will be returned with more doggie love, which is never a bad thing.

I am in a relatively unique position in that I own a dog that doesn’t know he’s a dog. My dog “Bugsy Wonderdog” (I just named him Bugsy, he added the Wonderdog part) has had an opinion on everything ever since he was a puppy. Usually he is correct. He recently asked me if he could write a couple of articles for me so, as is the case with most dog lovers, I gave in to my puppy and I let him do it. I have taken the liberty of including his first article in the text of this one and I must admit that as usual I believe he’s right. The need for healthy natural dog food and human grade dog food is a passion of mine and from a scientific perspective can be proven. To look at it from the dog’s perspective is an interesting paradigm shift. So without further ado I bring you words of wisdom from the Wonderdog.
I don’t understand why the concept of Healthy Natural Dog Food is so hard for you humans to grasp. You are finally trying to eat well yourself as is evidenced by the proliferation of Whole Foods, Fresh Markets and assorted other nouveau supermarkets dedicated to providing natural foods for humans so why not for us dogs? I don’t believe there is anyone more qualified to judge what does and what should go into that dog bowl them me, your humble Wonderdog. After all, I am the one who has to eat it.
How would you like to sit down for every breakfast, lunch and dinner for the rest of your life and be served a bowl of dry processed cereal? Why do it to your dog then? There’s nothing wrong with a bowl of Cheerios now and again, according to the label they are fortified and contain tons of vitamins and minerals but you wouldn’t want to live on them. Variety is the spice of life. I will bet that it wasn’t a dog eating a diet of exclusively processed commercial foods that came up with that line.
While we’re talking about it, what’s with the double standard? I’m talking about a legal loophole for commercial pet food manufacturers labelled “Pet Grade”. Why would such a thing even need to exist? I’ll tell you why, it’s because it’s all of the garbage that is deemed not fit for human consumption. Healthy Natural Dog Food is a complete oxymoron with respect to most commercial grade pet foods. Now I know that a dog, even your dog, isn’t human. Thank goodness for that, you people have enough problems but that doesn’t mean we should be deprived of vital nutrients because you can’t see through the marketing propaganda of the commercial pet food companies. Oh, their commercials are wonderful showing happy dogs with great coats and lots of energy. Those dogs are actors. They are probably eating Filet Mignon and traveling first class. They are the Brangelina’s of the canine world. How about making your dog feel like a movie star, or at the very least a Wonderdog. Whether you buy it in a store or you have to cook it yourself please feed your dogs Healthy Natural Dog Food.
Bugsy Wonderdog
Certainly spoken like someone who has never had to cook dog food for himself but overall I think he makes some great points. The innocuous little label “pet grade” in many cases might just as well say, “poison”. One of my favorite rules to live by when feeding my dogs is that if I wouldn’t eat it myself, I won’t feed it to my dog. You might want to listen closely here, it’s not everyday you get info right from the Wonderdog’s mouth. He is an actor, a model, a spokesdog and even an author but most importantly he’s a dog and as such has earned the title of “man’s best friend”. Let’s pay back some of that friendship by feeding Bugsy and all of our canine friends what they really need.

With the unfortunate increase in pet food recalls, millions of dog owners and breeders are very concerned and wondering what can they feed their dogs that is positively safe and will not cause permanent harm to their pet’s health.
Nearly all the information we have about pet nutrition has been provided by the best-known laboratories of the world since the early 19th century. This outdated information is not adequate for today’s modern dog due to the fact that its inner characteristics have changed in many respects. This could be one factor causing the deaths and health problems of thousands of dogs nationwide.
At first, it was learned that only one manufacturer was responsible for using wheat gluten in their dog food. People started reading the labels of the food in hopes to find a safer product to give to their pets.
Sadly, this was proven to be a waste of time, since other manufacturers reportedly used a rice concentrate in their dog food supply, but irresponsibly did not put the ingredient on the food label of the package.
No doubt these pet food manufacturers are really human food corporations concerned only with the bottom line and most likely, use their pet food as a dumping ground for waste from their industrial processes. They count on people to believe their marketing strategy and short term observations and ignore conscientious research.
This, of course, has created massive frustration and fear among dog lovers nationwide.
What food is actually safe?
It has been agreed by many experts in the pet industry that home made dog food recipes are the safest and easiest solutions to this terrible dilemma. If you are a loving and caring dog owner, the life expectancy of your pet depends upon your decision. Making your own dog food will keep other animal parts, diseased meat, artificial ingredients and chemically sprayed food away from your pet’s kidneys.
The latest research shows that the organic method of feeding your dog should be your first choice. It is the best way to ensure that your pet will have a balance diet. . As long as the food intake is balanced with his activity level, he won’t get fat. An example of a nutritional meal is scrambled eggs, boiled rice with small pieces of chicken or lamb. A great appetizer and treat is a cup of yogurt with live cultures.
It is crucial that your home made dog food have a good amount of protein, amino acids and vitamin D. Protein such as beef, chicken, turkey or fish is the building blocks for your dog’s muscles and vitamin D produces strong healthy teeth and bones. Other important essentials for your dog are calcium, carbohydrates and fatty acids.
The components for a good home made meal should include four ingredients. The first two ingredients should be meat sources and last two must include a good grain such as whole grain rice or barley and a vegetable like carrots. Do not include fillers such as corn or cornmeal which may cause allergies
The moral of this story is to find a good dog food recipe, feed it correctly and try to stay away from commercial dog food that is loaded with cancer-causing preservatives and red dyes. Make sure the home made food is of high quality and nutritional value and you will avoid the severe problems and sometimes immature deaths caused by the pet food recall brands.
