Foods That Are Dangerous For Dogs

Many of the common foods we stock our refrigerators, cupboards and pantry’s with are unsuitable or even dangerous for dogs. Here’s a list of what you need to look out for.

What is a Growth Diet?

Did you know that puppies have different needs than adults for many different nutrients, including amino acids, minerals and fatty acids? That's why feeding puppies a diet appropriate for growth is so important.

Dental Health

Does your pup have bad breath? Dental disease and bad breath are common in our pets, but there are steps that you can take to help manage the risk and combat that smelly morning breath.

Obesity Prevention

Did you know that over half the dogs in North America are overweight? Obesity can contribute to many other expensive health conditions and can even shorten lifespan. We want our dogs to be healthy, and live long and happy lives with us, so obesity should be high on our list of things to watch out for.

Healthy Treat Training

Puppies need at least basic training to ensure they have good manners, but it can also enhance your bond and create a positive relationship. Treats are often used as part of positive reinforcement of behaviours - but can there be too much of a good thing?

Feeding Your Senior Dog

Senior dogs can go through a lot of changes as they age. Proper veterinary care is key to keeping these older pups living their best lives, but nutrition can also help. By considering how your pet is aging, you can help select the best nutrition to support their needs.

Joint Health

If you've ever had a senior dog in your life, you've likely noticed that they tend to "slow down" as they get older. Arthritis is common in our old dogs and can impact their lives greatly. But there are things we can do to help get those senior pups moving more easily.

Understanding Pet Food Labels

If you've spent any time looking at pet food packaging, you may feel like you're reading a different language, and it can be easy to get lost in all the details. By identifying some of the common pieces of pet food packaging, you can better understand your pet’s food.

What is a Growth Diet?

Did you know that puppies have different needs than adults for many different nutrients, including amino acids, minerals and fatty acids? That's why feeding puppies a diet appropriate for growth is so important.

Ingredients & Nutrients

At some point during your dog's life, you are likely to consider what food is best to feed. How do you choose what is best for your furry family member? While it may seem obvious to look for familiar ingredients first when selecting a pet food, remember that our pets need specific nutrients to meet their daily needs.
