dog foodToday I discovered a new dog food that is made without any artificial ingredients or fillers. I've been wanting to take my dog off the dry food and canned dog food that is loaded with ingredients that I can't pronounce. My sister made the switch to healthy dog food and she reports that her dog's coat is much shinier, the dog less hyperactive, and he never gets sick, either. She feeds her dog a combination of dry and wet dog food, so I wrote down the brand and ordered my first case today.

The all natural dog food she uses is called Artemis Dog Can Beef and from the product description, it sounds like it will be great for the dog. He loves the occasional beef scraps we give him, so I'm looking forward to popping a can of this open and seeing how he likes it. Like my sister, we'll do the combination of dry and wet dog food so that he has variety in his diet.

The only place that sells it in my state is about 50 miles away, so I'm opting to order it from the website where my sister found it, Top Line Pet Supply located at www.toplinepetsupply.com. She says she's been ordering it there for quite a while, and the deliveries are always prompt. It's a whole lot easier for me to buy the food online and have it shipped right to my door rather than drive 50 miles in heavy city traffic. Our city is huge (Phoenix) and it would take an entire morning or afternoon to buy a case of dog food, something I just don't want to do.

Our dog is not a fussy eater and he's only a year old, so by introducing this healthy food into his diet, we are probably avoiding a mountain of vet bills over the course of his life. I just learned that dogs benefit from eating a wide variety of food, not just meat, whereas cats can get by on an entirely meat based diet. Dogs in nature are omnivores, which is why strays can be seen eating just about everything, and is also probably why dogs will eat anything that falls off the kitchen table or counters.

This dog food is certified by the AAFCO (Association Of American Feed Control Officials) so I have confidence in this dog food. If my sister's dog is any indication, it's a terrific food for our family pet, and we value a good diet and healthy lifestyles, so we need to extend the same to our pet, too.
