      With better natural foods like raw diets also, soft stools are common for some time until their stomachs digest it better as it’s first time they eat something .. healthy ! My guess is money for you, or should have simply researched basic dog care to know about soft stools with new foods… you are an abuser if you can’t afford the best smh ! Like don’t adopt any animal if you fail the basic task of providing f a quality food !

    Feed a previous dog purina branded dog foods and she lived a happy healthy long life for a medium size mix . Her life expectancy for the breed mix was 12 years and she lived to be 18 years. I don’t think it’s always about the food when it comes to a dogs health and not everyone can afford to feed the more premium brands.

      You are absolutely right, and I share this video not to shame anyone or bash a brand, rather, to inform on how i make my personal choices. From there, my community can decide how to best feed their pet. My goal is to inform, not recommend. I am so happy your dog lived to 18! Two of the oldest living dogs lived to nearly 30 years old, and I am on my way to help as many dogs live to 30 (and beyond) as possible! And you are right, food is absolutely not everything. Genetics, environment, all play a role!

      I feed my cats purina brand kitten( the natural one and for m6 full grown cat I buy purina grain free with chicken and egg. Also I stop by petco to buy clearance on grain free canned kitten food. The three cats just share everything and they are so healthy. As for m6 dogs I buy high end brands like blue and farmers dog at the grocery outlet. For example I get the brand blue dog food that normally cost over 50$ for 38 pounds and I get it for under $30..38 pounds 😊

    • @thomasbassett5475
      @thomasbassett5475 8 месяцев назад +4

      Have you ever considered the idea that owning a dog is expensive? It's kind of like having a child. You can choose to just have a child and there is nobody that will try to stop you. If you don't earn enough money to be able to give your child the best of everything then that child will for sure be limited and excluded from living a better life than you were able to provide them. But that doesn't stop people from choosing to have a child. I find it hard to understand why so many parents out there think that they have the right to complain about not being able to afford to give their children the best of everything when they never earned enough money before they decided to have that child. They just don't have the right to complain about it. So when a person decides to have a child anyway, without the means of being able to take care of that child, that person is acting irresponsibly and everyone in that family will suffer for them making that choice. The same thing goes for dogs. If you can't afford to put in the time and be able to afford the hefty cost of owning that dog, then you should not own a dog because you will only be hurting that dog in the long run. Everyone loves their pets and wants to give them the best there is to offer. But owning a dog is not cheap. It's actually very expensive and there is no way around it. It's entirely up to you on whether or not you are going to be able to give your pet the best care possible just like it would be if you decided to have a child and if you can't afford to buy quality food and spend lots of time with them to see to it that they are getting the best, then you should not put yourself in a position of having to do that. You should have taken the time to consider all the costs of owning a dog before you got one and you didn't. Everyone has the right to own a dog or have a child but nobody has the right to dictate the costs involved in that decision. That is something you should have researched better before taking on that responsibility because that is something every responsible person would do before taking on such an incredibly important decision and you obviously didn't. So you don't have the right to complain about the costs involved because those costs were probably too high for you to be able to afford before you decided to take on the responsibility of owning a dog with prices only going to get higher in the future. So it's too late to whine about it. You made that decision now it's up to you to find a way to earn the money needed to do it. Or you can just keep on complaining about the costs as you and your pet suffer for your bad decision because complaining about it now will not help change your situation. Only one thing will change it and that's for you to find a way to earn more money. If you can't do that then you should not have chosen to own a dog in the first place because owning a dog has always been something expensive and you should have known that before taking on that responsibility. So you have nobody to blame but yourself for taking on a responsibility that you clearly were never able to afford in the first place. I would hope that you learned from your mistake but you probably didn't learn anything at all and will keep making decisions that you can't afford to have and will still be complaining about the costs as if it's your right to dictate what the costs should be for you. You have no rights on what those costs will be at all because that's how capitalism works. People have the right to charge the highest amount of money they want for their products. It's up to you to be able to afford them and if you can't then you don't get to buy their products or services from them. If you don't like their prices then you need to go make a better product yourself for the prices you can afford. You have that right. So good luck with that. Something tells me though that you will not even come close to making a better product for less money. After all, you are the one who is complaining here so I'm assuming you already know that you can make that product. That's what a responsible person would do. Because you have to be able to back up your complaint. Why would you complain about today's current prices unless you already knew that you could put out an equivalent or better product for less money? Because it's not fair to expect other companies to do that for you when you can't do that yourself. So it wouldn't be fair to expect those companies to offer their products for less money since you couldn't do that either. Why would you ever complain about those companies' prices when you are not able to put out an equivalent product for less money? That would be an incredibly stupid thing to expect from those companies which makes your complaint not valid at all. We all want to be able to afford everything that we want but we don't live in a perfect world. We live in a capitalist society which is far from perfect and if we don't like that then we need to change it. So now you have two goals to take on. Good luck changing anything in this corrupted society. The only way we change that is when more than 60% of the people are willing to unite to fight back against it. And nobody in this country gives a shit about anyone else to do that. So if you are not already a winner here then you are a loser and you will have to just wait till the winners drop the ball and destroy it themselves. Till then you just take care of yourself the best you can and wait for it to collapse. Because complaining about it will only make you look like a bigger loser than you probably are and the rich will come for you like a bunch of sharks looking for an easy meal. These are all facts like them or not. You can continue to live your life in denial of them but I feel knowledge is power which is why I'm telling you this. I'm not happy with the way things are in this country but I don't get to make the rules and I learned a long time ago that complaining about them hurts you more than trying to play by the system they created. Change will come but it won't happen overnight and you still have to live here till that change comes which can take decades or maybe centuries to happen. So it's up to you whether or not you are going to live a good life here in the meantime. So empower yourself with as much knowledge as you can and make the best of the little bit of time you have here on this earth because you only get to do it once. Do it wrong and you have nobody to blame but yourself. The system is completely rigged against you so your odds are not good that you will do well. It will take lots of knowledge and a lot of luck for you to do well. And complainers who don't have valid complaints usually live their lives struggling badly and for the most part, are not happy at all.Doers on the other hand have much better odds of finding happiness while they are here. It's no guarantee but there is no guarantee of anything in this life other than you will die someday and that's it. Every decision we make can have long-lasting effects for the rest of our lives. It's never enough to just follow the crowd and then expect for everyone to live happily. Some might and some might not. So you need to think about the decisions you make a little bit harder so that you can think them through before you make those decisions. Because most people don't do that and you will find yourself in a much better place in life if you take the time to do that. Because complaining about things that you have no power to change never helps and makes you even a bigger loser.

Most people can’t afford 47 dollars for two pounds of food much less 180 to 200 for a 22 pound bag. I understand you probably get sponsored by some of these companies so you push them. We do our absolute best for our two perrihijos(dog children). We give them numerous supplements and plenty of fresh vegetables and fish. To say these boys are well taken care of is an understatement.

      Information is important. Don't attack the messenger. Whether or not she gets kickbacks from these companies is irrelevant. Look at the ingredients and see what makes sense to you. The garbage she is indicating is in the standard brands is the fault of the brand not the messenger. It is so you can make better informed decisions and this is very similar to the human nutrition world. Perhaps you can use the higher quality food as a topper or alternate food days. Adding in some healthier foods and reducing some unhealthier foods without making a complete switch to the most expensive would seem to me like a step in the right direction.

    Hi Rachel, love your videos! Just speaking from my personal experience, we tried feeding Carna4 to our small dog, and no matter what we did (we transitioned her very slowly), she would always throw it up. So instead, we have started feeding her The Honest Kitchen Whole Grain Chicken Clusters for Small Breeds, and she has done very well on it (no throwing up, thank goodness). It is 100% human grade, cold pressed, roasted & gently dehydrated (so I feel good about giving it to her). Also, we give her a side of raw goats milk (which she loves), and we will occasionally add fresh food toppers (such as sardines, etc.). It is working well for us so far!

    The reason why Purina splits the corn is because corn gluten meal and whole grain corn are two different ingredients that serve two different purposes. Corn gluten meal is the protein extracted from corn and consists of around 70% protein. Whole grain corn is just corn which has a much lower protein value and is mostly a carbohydrate. Corn gluten meal is a very good protein source and since the nutritional value of corn gluten meal is completely different from whole grain corn, it’s listed separately on an ingredient label. Don’t confuse corn gluten meal with regular corn because they are literally two completely different ingredients

      corn is NOT a "food" dogs should be eating. NO wolf would be eating corn, and most corn is GMO now, so that is NOT even fit for human consumption. It is filler, why would you feed filler? Purina is trash, and spends more on marketing the trash than what they put in their products. Just my opinion, keep your Vet rich, and your dog compromised is not logical.

    Can I ask about nutritional macros? Several years ago I started eating clean and low carb, and then four years ago went clean keto. It was life changing in terms of inflammation, vitals, everything! I've struggled trying to make home made food for my dogs and can't find nutritional macros on manufactured dog foods. Are nutritional macros anywhere to be found for dog foods?

    Thank you so much for video! It helps a lot. I have checked your list of kibble recommendations and found that you recommend Framina with free grains lines only, may I ask what do you think about ancestors grain line for puppy? I am choosing grain/grain free by Framina for puppy or the taste of the wild that offer grain free options only on the market where I currently live.
    Thank you in advance!

  • @pestimom6572
    @pestimom6572 Год назад +1

    Thanks for the great information. We just got back from our first vet visit - adopted Willow a week ago. I was shocked when the vet advised not to feed 'grain free' food, but Purina was just great. Not my first dog. 20 years ago, on the advice of a friend who bred Goldens, I switched from Purina Pro to Wellness, and health improved dramatically. I switched the cat's food to Wellness from Purina, and she stopped throwing up for the first time ever. I see your point about Wellness, tho. I had been feeding my last dog the Wellness Raw Rev, which was freeze dried, and I thought it was all meat. I see now it's not and has various legumes. Will take your advice and switch to one of your recommendations.

    Rachel please could you recommend an affordable kibble that is somewhat healthy and affordable? I have rescued two dogs and I have an old dog. So I have three dogs from 55-70 lbs! As you can imagine I go through a ton fast! I also cook food to add on top so I would like to do half and half. If I could just do cooked I would but in this economy it’s hard. What other human food do you recommend too? I also use a digestive enzyme and probiotic daily. Thank you! Oh an any affordable healthy chews!

    I bought a bag of wellness for my previous dog many years ago. Back when I still fed kibble. I never fed the same kibble two bags in a row. I tried to feed what I thought was good kibble. Within one week of starting that bag of wellness, her hair started falling out and she looked like crap. I could not believe it. I donated that bag and I bought a new brand and she instantly got better. So some dogs can't tolerate some foods.

    I've been feeding my dog Fromm's large breed puppy chow since 12/5/23. She seems to be developing fine and the couple vets I've been to have said this is my best bet to keep her on into adulthood. Watched this video among sooo many others before getting my puppy. Guess I will find out in 8 years time, or somewhere along the way, but so far this seems like a decent choice at its price point. Also, I very much support buying from a smaller family owned brand.
