What To Feed Your Dog!?           

What To Feed That Dog!? We all know that look. The puppy-dog-eyes staring up at you eagerly awaiting their next meal.  

However, as a pet parent, it can downright overwhelming trying to pick out food for your dog.

Freeze-dried, wet, or kibble? What do you choose? Worry not – I’m about to break down the pros and cons of the four main types of dog food for you.

Kibble Without a doubt, kibble is one of the most common types of dog food. Kibble is characterized as being dry food served in crunchy pellet form.

Kibble Pros: • Price – Kibble is popular for its economical price point • Easy to Store & Serve- Kibble does not require refrigeration and lasts longer than most other types of food. Additionally, kibble is a “scoop and serve” dish – simple, and quick.

• Dental Hygiene – The crunchy texture of kibble helps clean harmful plaque from dog’s teeth while they are eating.

Kibble Cons: • Unhealthy – Most commercial kibbles have unsatisfactory nutrient levels and unnecessary fillers. Despite being high in calories, kibble often does not contain the actual nutrients dog’s need to maintain optimal health.

• Dehydrating – Due to the fact that all moisture is removed from kibble, it leaves your dog needing more water than usual.

Moist Dog Food Typically found in cans.

Moist Food Pros: • Easy to Eat – The fluffy, moist texture of wet food is easy to eat and digest – making it a great option for senior dogs. • Hydrating – The high water level of moist food helps keep your dog hydrated as they eat.

Moist Food Cons: • Price – Moist food comes at a slightly higher price point than kibble • Moisture – On the other hand, too high a water content means there are fewer nutrients in the food, meaning they may need to eat more to get their fill. Be sure to buy moist food that are 100% nutritionally complete.

Semi-Moist Dog Food Less popular as a food option, more common in treat form. Semi-Moist Pros: • Soft – The texture is easy to chew and digest Semi-Moist Cons: • Nutritionally Lacking – Much like dry kibble, semi-moist food is often manufactured with unhealthy fillers and artificial flavors.

Frozen Dog Food

Frozen Pros: • Nutritional – Frozen, or “raw”, food is by far the most nutritional option. Since cooking food kills a lot of the beneficial nutrients, raw food contains the highest level of nutritional value. Frozen Cons: • Expensive – Raw food is the priciest option. In fact, it typically clocks in at around three times the price of standard kibble. • More work – You either have to defrost or rehydrate raw food, making feeding time take a little longer. You will also want to thoroughly wash your dog’s bowl after feeding to ensure bacteria doesn’t populate. At the end of the day, it is a good idea to talk to your vet about what diet would best suit your unique dog’s needs.

Three Ways to Get Your Dog to Come Inside

It's time for work and Rover is, once again, impervious to all efforts to get him back inside the house so you can leave. What to do?!

✅Leash him up. This is such a no-brainer, but it really is the best way to ensure your dog will come indoors when you say it’s time. Years ago, I had a boarder who loved to play Keep Away and had zero recall. I do not have time to chase a dog around the backyard when I have appointments to get to. He earned himself on-leash toilet trips.

✅Drop some extra special treats just inside the door on your way out with the dog. When your dog discovers the delicious “surprise” on his way back in, it will build value for coming into the house.

✅Have fun inside. If you always play fetch with the pup outside, but ignore him as soon as you come in (guilty here!), it’s no wonder he’d rather stay outdoors and keep the fun going. Toss the ball a few times as soon as you come inside, so indoors doesn’t automatically mean game-over.
