Holistic Blend
Home cooking of pet food is an invaluable bonding experience and an efficient way to ensure that your pup stays healthy. When selecting ingredients for homemade dog food, be sure that wholesome and natural are used – this can reduce trips to the veterinarian while leading to happier, healthier pups!
Holistic Blend starts out with lamb broth, an excellent source of protein and other vital nutrients. Next comes sweet potatoes – an excellent gluten-free source of carbohydrates with plenty of dietary fiber and beta carotene as well as inulin prebiotic to promote the growth of good bacteria in your dog’s digestive tract and chelated minerals which make absorption easier for him/her.
This food features near-average protein levels, below-average fat levels and above-average carbs – it received 4.5 stars on the Advisor website and can be purchased both dry and canned varieties to meet the nutritional requirements of dogs of all ages.
