Company Description
The Pet Food Patrols impartial pet food reviews and ratings according to brand or rating. The very best food for the health and wellness of your pet.  Pet food reviews, ratings, advisories and more. Were pet lovers. We know how important it is to understand what were feeding our animal friends. We help protect pets! Keep them happy and healthy!

Read the ingredients: Ingredients are listed by volume. The first ingredient is what makes up a good portion of the food followed in dissenting order, all the other ingredients. Dogs are mainly carnivores, and cats are pure carnivores. In the wild their cousins will make a kill and then eat some stomach contents, but will mainly eat muscle meat. Muscle meat is protein full of amino acids beneficial to your pet. You also want that protein to be a specific meat protein such as "Chicken" or "Lamb". Be cautious of the non specific words like "meat" or "animal".


"Meat Meal" refers to by products left over from the human food industry. Meat that is not fit for human consumption, tumors, beaks, feet, spleens, lungs, abscesses, etc. There are no regulations prohibiting a cancerous tumor from a cow being put into your pets' food. Many animals used for feed have been given antibiotics, hormones, steroids, and wormer. All this goes into the render with the "meat" and ends up in your pets' food. Signs of an inferior brand of food will list a vegetable protein as it's main protein source such as "corn"or"soy".

These protein sources are carbohydrate protein sources. They lack amino acids for good skin & coat, among other things. Carbohydrates turn to sugar. Many hyperactive dogs could be helped by just feeding a meat protein based diet. They are living on a constant sugar buzz! Obesity is a problem for dogs & cats. Carbs make us fat and they make our pets fat too! I have seen many dogs with horrible yeast infections throughout their bodies. Yeast feeds off of carbs turned to sugar and will continue to make the pet miserable until the diet is changed.

No wonder diabetes is near epidemic in our pets. Manufacturers are very clever. They will take an ingredient, lets say, corn, and disguise it in many different forms through the ingredient list. Do not be swayed by the fact that most veterinarians carry a brand of food that is corn based. Veterinarians are diagnosticians not nutritionists. They usually get an 8 hour course on nutrition sponsored by the company selling the food. They are then given incentives to sell their brand. Grains used in some foods can be just as problematic. It is not the healthy inner of the grain that is used but the waste of the grain being processed. Often times this contains mites & mold that can cause allergic reactions in our pets. Your pets may have even been forced to eat rendered euthanized dogs & cats from shelters, along with their collars, name tags, and the drugs used to euthanize them!

The Pet Food Recall of 2017 has brought an enormous amount of attention to pet food. With tens of thousands of pets affected by the recall and with the death of several thousand pets from tainted food (refer to the PetConnection Database), it is not at all surprising that we have questions. The surprising thing is that it's taken us all so long to ask these questions.


What have we been feeding our pets all these years? We've all, including Veterinarians like myself, trusted the pet food companies completely. We believed they have always held our pets - and our - best interests to heart. But in the case of the large multinational pet food companies, apparently not.

What we've been feeding has obviously not been what's best for our pets. What we're seen is shorter life spans, more disease, and more cancer - not healthier pets. While genetics do play a role, our pets are just like us. Garbage in... you know the result.


Pet food company ethics aside, the ultimate question that needs to be answered is this: what is the best food that we can feed our pets? Should we feed home diets, or are there companies that we can still trust? And what about raw food home diets?


The quick, simple answer, regardless of what you choose to do, is this: be informed. Be an informed, educated pet owner, and know what you are feeding your pet. You are your pet's guardian. You know your pet better than anyone else, including your veterinarian. Your pet's health is ultimately your responsibility - and that definitely includes what you feed your pet.


If you feed home diets, you'll clearly know the ingredients, and can find the ultimate sources of the foods you buy. If you feed prepared food (kibble or canned), make sure you know what really goes in that food. Make sure you know the company very well - that they have trustworthy sources for their ingredients, and that they can prove it.

The other consideration, and I am hearing this quite a lot lately, is simplicity and convenience. The main reason prepared pet food became popular in the first place was because of convenience. Many of the dog and cat home diets you see tend to be quite complicated, and this scares many pet owners away.

Pet diet and nutrition must be a major concern for a caretaker because ensuring proper food supplies along with love and affection are the pre-requisites to keep your pet happy and healthy. Choosing the best pet foods for your beloved pet then must be invested with proper research and consideration. In line with that, here is a quick list of 3 most important things that you must never ignore while choosing a pet food supplement:

1. Choosing Natural And Holistic Supplements


When it comes to pet's dietary needs, the basics are not very different from those for humans. So the best food supplement for your pet would be the one that is naturally composed and is not a highly-processed, chemical-rich version. An organic product could prevent your beloved pet from falling prey to health troubles. Milk Thistle and Mistletoe, for instance are great natural restorative remedies for pets. Holistically catering to your pet dietary needs through choosing supplements that boost overall health rather than simply fix the problem areas too is a good policy. Remember that good nutrition is intrinsic to the physical and emotional health of any being and as an owner of a companion animal; it is your duty to provide your pet with that.
