What's a healthy weight?

Generally, you should be able to feel, but not see, your pet's ribs when you pet him/her. You should be able to see a waistline when you look at your pet from above.

In addition to helping you pick the best food for your cat or dog, we can also help you figure out how much you should feed in order to maintain an ideal weight.


Are you storing your pet's dry food correctly?

How do you generally store your pet’s food? We recommend keeping it in its original bag, with the top rolled down and clipped shut, to keep air out. We also recommend setting the bag inside an airtight pet food storage bin, for extra protection against light, air, insects, rodents and grain mites.

Unsealed food gets stale in a few days

Have you ever eaten potato chips or crackers from a bag that was left open overnight? Many people store pet food in open bags or containers that are exposed to air. This allows the food to quickly become stale, losing valuable nutrient and moisture content. It also makes the food taste stale to the pet, and can cause picky pets to skip meals.

Rancid fats can cause diarrhea

Pet food is often coated with protective fats, which are beneficial to your pet when the food is fresh. Pet food bags are generally designed to preserve the food, including the fats. If you pour food out of the bag, into a container, the fats accumulate on the sides of the container. Over time, the fats can become rancid and can contaminate the next bag of fresh food you pour into the container. Rancid fats can cause pets to develop diarrhea.

Grain mites can make your pet itchy

Grain mites can invade food in open containers, or leftover kibble from previous bags sitting in the bottom of the bin. Invisible without a microscope, these mites can cause an allergic response in some dogs and cats.

In the event of a pet food recall, you need the original bag

Pet food recalls happen a few times a year. In order to determine if your pet’s food is part of a contaminated batch, you need to compare the information on the bag with the recall information provided by the manufacturer.

You are what you eat! So is your pet. Protect your pet’s food supply to save money on food and veterinary care, and to keep your pet safe.
