SHR # 2903:: Pet Food Math - Chelsea Kent - In recent years we've realized that dogs are getting the same diseases as their owners. These are diseases we DO NOT see in wild dogs. A link between the amount of carbohydrates in your dog's food and the occurrence metabolic disorders and cancer has been well illustrated. But pet food manufacturers won't reveal the carbohydrate content of their pet foods even though there is now a movement by pet owners to get that information. Pet owners jus assume that if their pet's food says "grain free" or "corn free" that its a low carbohydrate blend. But it isn't. A website has been set up where you can take the label claims of your favorite pet food and now calculate the carbohydrate content of that food. Placing the power in the pet owner's hands to determine for themselves if they're feeding their beloved family member what they think they are. Knowledge is power.
