Dog Food

Best Bully Sticks stocks many different organic foods, treats and chews for your dog. To get a better understanding of why organic dog products are better for your pet, it is important to look at what actually goes into these products.

It is pretty much common knowledge that organic foods contain no artificial colours, preservative or flavors. You should steer clear of these ingredients because you can never be sure of what they actually are or what they are made from. The effects these artificial chemicals have on your dog is unknown, they could be the cause of allergic reactions or just change the way your dog acts, it is very difficult to predict. These chemicals can also upset your dogs tummy or give them digestive problems.

It is important to look at why each ingredient that goes into organic dog products is classed as organic. Firstly, we will look at organic meat, particularly beef, chicken and lamb as these are the most common meats in dog food. For beef to be organic it is usually from grass fed, good quality cattle and has had no preservatives added to it.  Organic chicken comes from free-run chickens who have not been given antibiotics or hormones. Lamb is organic when it is grass-fed, hormone-free, antibiotic-free, naturally-raised and free-range. Particularly in dog treats and chews the meat would have had no chemicals added to reduce or eliminate odours, nor would it have had colouring added to it. Another factor that makes it organic is that it would not have had cereals or grains added to it as a filler to bulk it out. An example of products that use yummy organic meat is Paw Naturaw Organic Diet for Dogs, which comes in a selection of forms including mini rolls, medallions and patties and also a selection of flavors. Primal Organic Jerky Chicken Chips for Dogs are another example of an organic treat for dogs that are 100% natural and taste great. They are particularly good to use when training your dog.
Many meats in organic dog products are frozen raw to eliminate the loss of nutrients whilst cooking. Meats contain fat and fiber but most importantly they are high in protein, which is one of the most important elements in your pet’s diet. It is important in all elements of growth and development as well as having a big part to play in making up the immune system. Meat by-products do not complain this high source of protein, which is why organic is best. In the wild dogs eat only meat, therefore pure meat is a diet that dogs can solely live off.

Some organic dog products contain a large amount of top-quality fish. For fish to be organic it must be wild caught, and therefore brought up on a natural diet. It also must contain no preservatives or other chemicals and is usually delivered fresh to the producer. Acana Provincial Pacifica Grain Free Dry Dog Food is an example of a fish based product. As the name suggests it also contains no grain to bulk out the product. Fish contains high levels of Omega-3 and Omega-6, which is excellent in maintaining a healthy shine to your dog’s coat and also keeping their skin at a good quality. Fish also contains a high level of protein.

The other ingredient that often features in organic dog products is organic fruit and vegetables. These are fruit and vegetables which have grown without the help of any chemicals and have no grains or wheat added to the products to bulk them out. Fruit and vegetables are very low in fat but also full of vitamins and minerals to nourish your dog. For example, pumpkin, which features in Fruitables Pumpkin and Apple Dog Treats, is a natural source of antioxidants, rich in Beta-Carotene, key vitamins and nutrients, fiber and it is low in calories. Antioxidants help your dog to fight diseases and remain healthy; there are also high levels of these in Barkwheats Blueberry and Lavender Dog Biscuits.

Whichever organic ingredient is present in your dog’s treats and food is guaranteed to make them healthier and more nourished than the poor quality ingredients present in regular dog food. So for a happier, healthier dog, choose organic.

The majority of dog food on the market does not reflect a dog’s natural diet. Instead they are full of chemicals and fillers and are nothing like what a dog would eat in the wild. As carnivores, dogs and cats cannot convert vegetation into nutrients within their own stomach as this is not what they’re naturally meant to eat. Most organic dog food tries to re-introduce Mother Nature to the dog food world and feed them what nature intended for them.

There are many positive reasons why organic dog food is much better for you pet than regular poor quality dog food. If your dog has allergies these could be caused by the artificial colours, flavourings and preservatives in regular dog food, so cutting them out the equation could stop your dog’s skin irritations and other allergies. Organic dog food is naturally more nutritious and it can therefore give your dog more energy. This energy is particularly more important if your pet is overweight because this will help them to move about more and go down to a more healthy weight particularly with diseases like diabetes being a potential risk. Another point is that organic food does not contain bulk-fillers, so your dog would only consume what is needed to maintain healthy energy levels and life functions. Bulk fillers put in regular dog food make it more difficult to dogs to digest, due to organic dog food not containing these fillers; dogs can therefore digest it easier. Finally, with more nutritious food going into your dog, they will feel, look and act better, improving their quality of life and also extending their life expectancy.

Best Bully Sticks supplies many brands of both dry and wet organic dog food. Firstly, an example of a dry dog food supplied by Best Bully Sticks is K9 Natural. They come in Beef and Lamb flavours, contain no antibiotics or hormones and are suitable for all breeds of dog. They are made from 85% top quality meat and 15 % fruit and vegetables and do not cook any ingredients, due to the loss of nutrition when cooking. Another example of dry organic dog food supplied by Best Bully Sticks is Orijen dog food. This is grain free, is 20% vegetables and 80% meat and mirrors the diet of dogs in the wild. Their ingredients are delivered fresh each day so they contain no preservatives and are never frozen.
Secondly, Best Bully sticks supplies an organic dog food called Tripett. It is based on tripe and as dogs cannot receive nutrients from grains and grasses, this wet food is based on partly digested food and from this they gain many nutrients and vitamins. Tripett is 100% natural and contains no additives, preservatives, fillers or artificial ingredients. Tripett is available in a range of many different flavours.

To feed your dog with food that is filled with natural nutrients and vitamins that is more reflective of their natural diet, grab some organic dog food from Best Bully Sticks. You’re guaranteed to notice the difference in your dog.

The average dry pet food is grain based, however dogs and cats evolved and developed to have a diet containing a large amount of meat, a carnivorous diet. This return to the natural diet is what makes Orijen Dog Food uniquely distinguishable from other pet food producers.

The current pet food market is flooded with grain based foods lacking in the nutrients your pets could largely benefit from. Instead, these dry pet foods contain high levels of carbohydrates and low levels of meat and protein. Many ingredients feature in these products as more of an attraction to draw in consumers rather than benefitting the nourishment of dogs and cats.

Dogs and cats have many biological features which define them as carnivores and reiterate that their diet should be full of animal protein and fat. Their teeth are sharp for the grabbing, ripping, tearing and shredding of meat, they have strong jaw and neck muscles that are perfect for chewing meat and their stomachs are designed to hold large quantities of meat. Just because it is possible for dogs and cats to solely live off of plant based foods does not mean this is the best diet for them or that they will be healthy.

This necessity for a more natural approach to the diet of your pets is met by Oriijen Dog Food, it is biologically appropriate, high in protein, low in carbohydrates and finally, grain-free. It contains the highest quantities and qualities of meat whilst also eliminating ingredients such as cereal grains and vegetable proteins, which are not features of a dog’s natural diet. The ingredients used by Orijen provided by local suppliers who are trusted by Canadian households and meet the highest food safety standards.
Orijen Dog Food contains a suitable range of hormone and additive- free meat from free-run poultry to free-range red meats to fish, all of which are provided regionally so they are fresh each day and never frozen. The meat is also slow cooked on the day of arrival to ensure the level of nutrients is at the highest possible level, unlike those meats which have been previously frozen. The dog food is made up of a hefty 80% meat and 20% fruit and vegetables, a much more realistic reflection on the diet nature intended for your pets.
Best Bully Sticks supply three types of dry dog food, Orijen Adult 80/20 Formula, Orijen Regional Red Meat Formula and Orijen 6 Fresh Fish with Sea Vegetables, all of which replicate the natural diet. Each product contains a different selection of meat, fruit and vegetables as well as phytonutrients, B-vitamins and trace minerals. Those containing wild-caught fish also contain omega-3 , which is known to improve and enhance the quality of your pets coat, making it shiny and well conditioned.
Orijen’s restoration of the food dogs and cats were naturally developed to consume means a return of the nutrients and nourishment your pets need to live a healthy and happy lifestyle so you know you are giving your pet the very best chance in life and feeding them the way nature intended them to be fed.
