Wuffenhund Rottweilers Nutrition Tips

Directory


	Why worry about nutrition? Aren’t all dog foods good? Your wouldn’t buy a high performance sports car then put cheap, low octane fuel in it. Would you? Then why would you feed a high performance dog like a Wuffenhund Rottweiler inferior dog food. To ensure your dog stays renewed and grows to his/her potential, the proper nutritional fuel is vital. At Wuffenhund, our Rottweilers only get the best food. Here is how YOU can recognize GOOD ingredients in dog food!



	The hallmarks of a high-quality food include the following...
	Superior sources of protein. This means either whole, fresh meats or single source meat meal. A whole-meat source as one of the first two ingredients. (Chicken or chicken meal). Better yet would be two meat sources among the top three ingredients. Whole, unprocessed grains, vegetables, and other foods. A previously unprocessed food has the best chance of surviving the food-making process with some of its nutrients intact.



	High quality dry foods should contain a MINIMUM of the following:
	Food fragments. Fragments are lower-cost-by-products of another food manufacturing process, such as brewer’s rice and wheat bran. Meat by-products. Using by-products of another food’s main protein source is indicative of a lower-quality product.



	Hallmarks of low-quality dry food:
	“Generic” fats or proteins. “Animal Protein” and “poultry protein” are far inferior to “beef protein” or “chicken protein”. Artificial preservatives. Such as BHA, BHT, or Ethoxyquin. Artificial Colors. Your dog doesn’t care what color his food is! Propylene glycol. Your dog doesn’t need exposure to this chemical which is added to some “chewy” foods to keep them moist. Sweeteners. Corn syrup, sucrose and other sweeteners are sometimes added to lower-quality foods to increase their appeal.
