Weekly Update from Dogwise: Focus on Nutrition
|
|
Dear Dogwise Customer,
It's very interesting to watch how trends in both human and pet nutrition seem to run in tandem. All of a sudden, obesity in people seems to be the hot topic, with several recent documentaries having been broadcast and books written on the subject. The experts all seem to agree - it has to do with the kinds of food we eat in modern America, combined with a sedentary lifestyle. And while obese pets are less common than obese people, there are similar concerns about what we feed our dogs. Which brings us to Feed Your Pet Right - The Authoritative Guide to Feeding Your Dog and Cat by Marion Nestle (author of What to Eat - for humans) and Malden Nesheim. Based on the success of the book on people food, the authors have turned their attention to an in-depth analysis of pet foods, both the pros and cons. Marion is a professor of Nutrition and Food Studies at NYU and brings a great deal of expertise to this effort. The book will really help you decide what the best course of action is for feeding your dog or cat.
Sticking with this theme, here are some other suggestions to improve what you feed your dog:
- Performance Dog Nutrition - Optimize Performance With Nutrition by Jocelynn Jacobs. Our Book of the Week from now until May 19th, 20% off the regular price, only $19.96. What to feed if your dog is engaged in any canine sport that requires him to be in tip-top shape.
- Chow Hounds - Why Our Dogs are Getting Fatter, A Vet's Plan to Save their Lives by Ernie Ward, DVM. It's not only people who are getting fatter - how to feed (and treat) your dog to keep the fat off.
- The Canine Ancestral Diet - Healthier Dog Food the ABC Way by Steve Brown. A recent Dogwise publishing effort, noted nutritional expert Steve Brown explores how feeding your dog a diet that mimics what canids ate in the wild (think Caveman diet for people) can enhance your dog's health.
Our product pick this week is a healthy, all natural line of treats that dogs love! Wildside products come in Salmon (freeze-dried, crunchy, or oil), Lamb (semi-soft or crunchy), and Kangaroo. Everything is grain free and they're great for training treats or bait.
Thanks from all of us at Dogwise.
