Dog Foods

The net quantity statement tells you how much product is in the container. When looking for a pet food a cost-per-ounce or per-pound comparison is always important. Check the labels carefully, a 40-lb bag may actually only have 35 lbs of food if the food has been “puffed up.” The bag holds the same volume, but might not actually contain the amount of food it says.

Look for the manufacturer’s name and address, the label should at least include a state and zip code. Some manufacturers include a toll-free number or a web address for consumer inquiries.

Next check out the ingredient list. Everything that makes up the pet food will be listed. The first items listed are what predominately makes up the food or is the main ingredient. Usually the first thing listed is a meat or corn or something similar. Lower down the list you start seeing all of those complex names, which are usually vitamins and minerals. The last things listed are usually artificial colors, stabilizers and preservatives.
