The Pet Food Recall Saga….More good then harm

More pet owners are cooking for their pets today then ever before. It is a wonderful news to me. I view the recent Pet Food Recall event as a “blessing” to our animal friends…. As some of you know, I am an advocate for natural health for dogs and never advocate commercialised pet food for your pets. Today, there has been so much more awareness for this with minimal effort on my part. I have spoke to so many dog owners in the past to change their pet diet but only few are willing to make that switch. Today, there is no longer a need for me to explain in greath length on what is good for their pets, I just have to teach them how to cook for their pets with the least amount of effort and costs!

Check out FREE newsletter and get yourselves prepared for many happy years ahead with your lovely pooch!

Another lousy news about dog food company

You decide on your choice of foods for your dog....avoid supporting organisations like this from now on... lab dogs are suffering in silence all these while.....

Commercially dog food vs Home cook dog food

Like many, due to time constrain and busy lifestyle, I have fed my dogs premium commercially produced dog food for 4 years since their puppyhood before I switch them totally to home cooked foods about half year ago...

Though I hardly even cook for myself and family, the man reasons why I made the drastic change in their diet and put in the additional effort to cook for them are..
- They have variety of foods source, human grade
- Natural, imagine ourselves eating dried food daily. No enzymes is not good for anyone!
- I control what goes into them...
- No presertives or chemical treated foods
the list of home cooked benefits goes on....

Over the weekend, I heard of news that in the states, many major dog food brands are called off the market shelves. I was in awe, some of the brands are premium and supposedely healthy wholesome foods for dogs. Makes me feel at ease for making the switch in their diet recently and re-confirm my sendiments that home cooked is still best for my pooches.

Take responsiblity for your pet's health and wellbeing, consider cooking for them naturally instead....it just takes me less then an hour to cook a weeks' food supple for my 2 medium sized dogs....not much effort for long term health and wellbeing for my favourite friends....
