New Pet Food Rating Page

We have done a lot of research on pet food since we put the product on our website.
BreedersChoice and Natures Logic Dog and Cat Food

A new page, Pet Food Ratings, we think does a pretty good job of consolidating a lot of the information on the internet about the quality of various pet food brands. Choosing the Best Dog Food or Cat Food for Your Pet can be a problem with so many brands out there. You can do your own research but we suspect you will find in a nutshell what You will find on at our Pet Food Ratings page.

You can also Buy Virtually any Dog or Cat Pet Food Brand you prefer, at our website, from Pet Food Direct, a major retailer of all brands. We recommend Breeders Choice and Natures Logic

5 Main Resources - were used in our research, but well over 100 sites were visited and read. See all the sources at: Internet Research Sources

The 5 Main Resources were:

Whole Dog Journal - (not free, click the link to learn access) Best Overall Resource: each year gives a list of good dog food brands. Detailed, thorough. Lists ingredients and gives website addresses for manufacturers. Just stick with it. Lists each food's ingredients.
Dog Food Analysis - (free- click the link, and then see: "CLICK HERE TO SEE THE REVIEWS"). Very Particular, Detailed, Finicky Resource: rates Premium Dog Foods from 6 stars to 2 stars. Lists each food's ingredients, with comments/judgment.
Good Dog Magazine - (not free, click the link to learn access) Timely Information Throughout the Year: reports on many subjects, including Dog Food.
Progressive Animal Welfare Society (free, click the link) - Strict and Different. Rates pet foods on a Scale of 1-10 (10 is high); 9-10 for food in the wild eaten by your pet in his wild state; 8 for food you cook/make for your pet. Commercial pet foods are all rated 7 and lower. At right are Brands rated at 6-7 and therefore, "acceptable."
Animal Protection Institute (free, click the link) - Investigative Report/Fact Sheet. Solid report on the pet food industry. Bottom line: caveat emptor! Do your research before you buy.

Is Premium Dog Food Really Better? Yes ! And Cheaper to Feed in the long run. See the details here: Good Dog Magazine.

BEAR IN MIND: Each breed is different, each pet is an individual. Many are finicky as to what they will eat, and react to, health-wise. You might have to "buy and try" from the brands recommended by the researchers, to find "The 1, 2 or 3" your pet will eat and react well to; but at least with this resource you have a starting and finishing point for truly great pet food. Whole Dog Journal seems to provide the best list of acceptable good dog food brands. The most recent List we have is at Right.

From our site you can buy just about any dog food on the market, at Pet Food Direct Shop and Buy Page
(the default is to Breeders Choice and one of its Premium Brands, AvoDerm), but you can choose any brand you prefer from our page. Virtually every brand on the Market, is available at great prices. Use the "Search For" box and name your brand: .

A brand we recommend -- Natures Logic -- is not on any of the lists. It is a relatively new company and it is the first line of pet food in which all categories of products contain 100% food and excludes all chemically synthesized nutrients. All vitamins, minerals, and trace nutrients found in all Natures Logic products are derived 100% from food.
