Do not fill this in!Lots of wheat gluten and other proteins are routinely put into dog food. Wheat free dog food is less common, because the most large-scale pet food manufacturers usually do not cater enough to the health needs of pets, especially those puppies or adult canines that could be allergic to wheat.<br /><br />But just as humans are often allergic to wheat, the same holds true for dogs. So nowadays many pet food companies are beginning to recognize the necessity for more dietary restrictions, because they react to consumer demand for products such as wheat free dog food. In the event that you shop carefully - especially in better pet stores or in places like health food grocery stores which have a pet food aisle - you could find a lot of wheat free food for you dog. And if you aren't near a store which has that sort of product - that is the situation for many people who live in small towns or rural communities - then you can even order dog food it doesn't contain wheat over the Internet. The delivery truck or post office will bring it to your doorstep.<br /><br />The most alarming cases of pet food problems are, needless to say, those that upset owners across the USA last year when it was discovered that dogs were dying from tainted pet food imported from China. These toxic foods were contaminated with melamine, a chemical sometimes used in industrial products as a binder or thickening agent. The melamine-tainted food is banned, and hopefully it'll never return. But pet owners who are still concerned that imported dog food might once more slip through inspections and harm their dogs can purchase brands that adhere to a higher standard. Many companies now offer organic dog food, wheat free dog food, and gluten-free dog food, plus specially blended foods that are abundant with nutrients and vitamins that growing puppies and older dogs both need.<br /><br />Keep your dog safe and healthy by shopping for dog food that's made to optimum health standards. To find out what brands will be the top rated and offer the most nutrition per meal, just ask your local vet for some brand recommendations. You can be sure that whatever he / she feeds their own pets is a wonderful choice for you as well as your furry friend.<br /><br />Thomas Kearl lives along with his wife and 3 dogs in Escondido, CA. He only feeds his pets dehydrated raw wheat-free dog food. Summary: Please note that all contributions to Disgaea Wiki may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
