The Good, The Bad & the Ugly of Proteins for your Dog

3 Good Proteins:
Muscle meats

Eggs

Organ meats (such as liver) .


3 Worthless Proteins:
Wheat

Corn

Barley


What's the Point in Knowing This?

Dog food manufacturers must have at least 9% protein in their food (called the Guaranteed Analysis) or they are required to print on the label that the food is not nutritionally adequate.


So how dog food companies cut this corner? They use cheap vegetable proteins like wheat, corn and barley to meet the Guaranteed Analysis requirements AND keep their profits high by not using more expensive meat... all at the expense of 's health.
