Review on 🐶 Top-Rated Natural Balance Limited Ingredient Diet Adult Dry Dog Food with Healthy Grains - Rich Protein Choices Include Salmon, Duck, Lamb, Beef, or Chicken by Christine Flores

I cannot praise Natural Balance Limited's ingredients enough. I use the Meal Meal & Brown Rice formula. Two of my Border Collies eat this Natural Balance dry food and enjoy the taste. When it's time to eat (I feed twice a day) they both come up to me and remind me it's time to eat. Moistened with a little warm water, the pieces stay crisp and make a nice little sauce. I used to feed another expensive brand of grain free food that was £4 less per bag and cost more. Then I found an article by a veterinarian saying that recent FDA studies have shown that dogs fed a "grain-free" diet based on peas, lentils, or potatoes develop an unusual condition that includes an enlarged heart can cause. And these enlarged hearts have been observed in breeds that were not genetically predisposed to canine dilated cardiomyopathy. I was horrified. I will literally pay any price for my dogs to eat the highest quality food. I paid a fortune for foods that could endanger their health! After hours of testing the ingredients of various dog foods, Natural Balance Limited Ingredient Diets Lamb Meal & Brown Rice was the ONLY high-quality grain-free dog food free of these potentially harmful ingredients. Peas, chickpeas, lentils or potatoes (also sweet potatoes) are related to each other. "We are concerned about reports of a canine heart condition known as dilated cardiomyopathy in dogs that have eaten certain pet foods containing peas, lentils, other legumes or potatoes as key ingredients," said Dr. Martin Hartogensis of the FDA. Dogs with this condition develop an enlarged heart, which then has trouble functioning properly. You can develop congestive heart failure, which can be fatal. I'm so glad I found this article and swapped my favorite border collies for lamb meal and brown rice. I hope other pet owners read this and learn so they don't unknowingly feed these other harmful dog foods. Boys thrive on Natural Balance. Their coat is shiny, their digestion is excellent and they really enjoy the taste. Two very happy, healthy dogs, the vet reported them to be in excellent condition.
