When a pet appears in the house, it is immediately surrounded by attention. Whether it is a cat or a dog, the owners try to provide it with everything necessary for full development. Every living creature requires love and care, but this will not be enough without a nutritious diet.
More recently, it was not customary to feed animals with special food; it was believed that food from the owners’ table was quite enough for the growth and life of the pet, but numerous veterinary studies have proven that such nutrition often leads to health problems in cats and dogs, especially purebred and picky ones.
Ideally, a pet should choose an individual diet of high-quality meat products, vegetables and cereals, which are selected in accordance with the requirements of the body in order to meet its needs for proteins, vitamins and other essential substances , but such an approach is time-consuming and in the modern world not everyone a person can afford to prepare and prepare food for his pet. Manufacturers of dry and canned food come to the rescue in such situations with their products.
If you decide to feed your four-legged friend a finished product, then you will definitely be faced with the question, which one should you choose? The modern market offers a lot of different brands from the most economical to the elite, and each manufacturer assures that its food is the most natural and healthy , developed and approved by veterinarians, and it is their products that any pet will choose. The buyer is offered hundreds of flavors that can satisfy even the most picky cats and dogs, but it is not always possible to understand what is hidden behind the bright packaging and promising advertising.
How to choose dog food
When buying food for your pet, you need to pay attention first of all to its composition. The first place among the listed products should be the meat ingredient.
Chicken is not recommended for dogs prone to allergies. For them, it is better to choose a diet based on turkey, duck, beef, lamb or other types of meat.
Cereals are most often used as carbohydrates. Rice has a beneficial effect on the digestive process, but the presence of wheat is not welcome. It refers to products that are practically indigestible by the animal body. Other ingredients to avoid include soy, beets and corn. These are useless components that most often cause intolerance in dogs.
Grain-free formulas are as close as possible to the natural diet of carnivores. They are recommended for daily feeding to dogs by most veterinarians. However, the cost of such feeds is higher than standard grain formulas. However, extracts of plants, fruits or vegetables added to the composition enrich the animal’s diet and have a beneficial effect on its general health.
Dog food is usually divided into:
- Everyday – for daily feeding;
- Medicinal - they should be taken strictly on the recommendation of a veterinarian;
- Specialized - used when the animal has a specific problem.
The owner decides which one to buy based on the pet’s health condition and the veterinarian’s advice.

Rating of holistic dog food
Holistics are the highest quality, but also the most expensive. Due to their high price, they are significantly less popular, because feeding a large breed pet with expensive food is financially difficult for many dog owners.
Top 5 holistic food rating:
- Acana (manufactured in Canada);
- Primordial (made in Italy);
- Essential (made in the UK);
- Grandorf (made in Belgium);
- Canagan (made in the UK).
If you choose holistic dog food, you can safely take any from the list above, without paying attention to the position in the ranking. All these foods have a very good composition.
At the moment, the PetObzor website has made only a dozen reviews on holistic food. Accordingly, only these studied foods were taken into account when compiling the rating. But in the future, as new reviews are released, we will update this rating.

Analysis of the composition of cat food
In what cases is it better to put a jar (bag) of food back on the store shelf?
- If you read that cat food contains cellulose, sugar, caramel and, attention, Propylen glycol. The latter is considered a sweetener, but in fact it is a de-icing agent, which is very harmful to the health of the animal.
- If the food contains E127 (an artificial dye), which often provokes cancer.
- If the composition does not hide a large percentage of by-products. Good offal is good for cats, but often under this name manufacturers disguise such unappetizing things as, say, beef skin or simply waste from slaughterhouses.
- The inscription “meat” does not mean that the food contains meat, but that the manufacturer is trying to hide the true nature of this component. Only if you have a transcript, that is, a detailed list of types of meat, can you count on the fact that your cat will eat a pure product.
- Do not buy food if you see it containing Ethoxyquin, BHA (E320) and BHT (E321). These are artificial antioxidants that can damage the liver, cause depression, seizures, and skin neuroses.
- Chemical preservatives are also not the best food for your cat.
What makes a good cat food?
- Meat will come first in a good food! It must be at least 35%! Beef, chicken, turkey, rabbit or fish are healthy meat ingredients.
- The next component that must be present in the feed is protein. 20% protein is a good number. Egg or milk whites are an excellent natural filler.
- Only 10% comes from high-quality offal.
- Plant fibers needed by cats should not exceed 25% of the composition. Oats, wheat, rice, corn are useful for cats only if the manufacturer does not add them in order to save on meat.
- Additional mineral and vitamin supplements are only a plus for the manufacturer’s karma.
Safe and necessary supplements include:
- ascorbic acid;
- vitamins H, K, B3, I15, B5, B6, B2, B1;
- Calciumoxide, Calcium phosphate, Calciumcarbonat (calcium);
- Calcium pantothenat (vitamin B5);
- chloride, choline chloride;
- cobalt, copper, copper carbonate, copper sulfite, iron sulfite, iron oxides, manganese, zinc and copper;
- the presence of an amino acid such as taurine in the composition is also a good indicator and incentive to purchase food;
- natural antioxidants (vitamins E and C) will not harm your pet.
