Default All About Dog Food


By definition, dog food is any plant or animal material intended for
consumption by dogs or other canines. Dog foods, like dogs, come in a
huge variety.
Some people make their own dog food or feed their dogs meals made from
ingredients purchased in grocery or health-food stores; many others
rely on commercially manufactured dog food. There are also vegetarian
dog foods for owners who do not want their dogs to consume meat
products. There are also dog foods specially formulated for dogs
allergic to common ingredients such as chicken, wheat, or corn.
By its water content, commercial dog food is categorized into the
following types: dry, semi-moist, and moist. Wet, or canned, dog food
is higher in moisture than dry or semi-moist food. Pellets of dry dog
food, called kibble, are primarily produced by one of two methods:
extrusion and baking. Special dog foods given as a reward, and not as
a staple, are known as dog treats.
There are also varieties of dog food commonly labeled as "human-grade
food"....
