recommended dog food
How it plays a role
Nutrition has a HUGE effect on a dogs behavior. Would you be willing to work hard every day if you had itchy skin, upset stomach, ear infections, UTI, poor gut health, etc? We want our dogs to be happy and healthy before we expect them to work for us. This is why the quality of food that we feed our dogs matters. Does your dog have major eye boogers? Stinky paws? Dry/ itchy skin? Allergies? Poor stool quality? Diet effects everything!
When you switch to a better quality food, you may spend more money, but you are saving so much more money in vet bills. Better quality dog food is more nutritious for our dogs. Therefore, you may not need to feed as much as you had needed to in the past. This means that you are saving money in the end on food AND vet bills.
