Who Make’s Your Pets Food, and Why it Matters

There was a very cool graphic that circulating on social media last week. The image visually demonstrates which corporations produce which pet foods. The major pets food manufacturers represented are Mars, Del Monte Foods, Nestle and Colgate-Palmolive.

Perhaps you’re asking yourself, who cares who produces my dog’s pets food? We care. Dog food is not a highly regulated industry. There are many different pets food available in the USA and many of them are filled with junk. Additionally, they are produced in gigantic factories with very little quality control. That’s one reason why many of the foods produced by these large conglomerates source the cheapest ingredients possible and have to issue regular recalls on their food.

When you select a pet food, you are putting your dog’s health in the hands of the dog food producer and therefore extending your trust to these companies. Just as you are particular about what you put in your body, so you should be particular about what you feed your pet.

At Dirty Dogs, we select pet foods that meet our strict requirements for nutrition and safety. We only sell dog foods made in the USA, Canada and New Zealand. We stand behind the foods we carry and that’s why we offer a 100% guarantee on all of our pet foods. If you’re not satisfied, bring them back and we’ll offer you a full refund.

You should feed your pet a food you can be proud of. Visit your local Dirty Dogs to find out more about some of the amazing independent dog food companies producing healthy and fresh foods for your pet.
