Go's food for dogs: composition

It is important to understand that the composition of Gou dog food depends directly on factors such as:

• Dry food or canned food;
• Food for an adult dog or puppy;
• Highly specialized lines, such as food for pregnant women, with sensitive digestion;
• Depending on the recipe (with chicken, duck, lamb).

Detailed information about Gou food is always indicated on the back of the package.
We suggest you consider the composition of Go for dogs - Daily Lamb Protection Recipe (with the addition of lamb meat):

• A balanced mixture of meat and young lamb fillet with an organic flavor extract. This is the basis of feed and the main source of protein. Also an important factor is the flavor extract. It is 100% organic and is a flavorful addition to meat without any negative factors;
• Dried seaweed. Dogs, like people, need enough iodine to function properly. If you do not live on the sea coast, most likely your dog will have an iodine deficiency, which this food will replenish;
• Rice is one of the few grains acceptable in the diet for dogs. The food uses a mixture of bran and whole brown rice - ideal for sensitive stomachs to help digest food;
• Oatmeal provides the food with a sufficient amount of fiber, which promotes rapid and high-quality processing of food, and also enriches the diet with a wide range of microelements;
• Flax seeds have proven themselves to be an ideal source of fats and a storehouse of plant vitamins. Adding flax seeds to dog food made it possible to enrich the animals' diet, as well as add antioxidants to the diet;
• Potassium chloride is a component that saturates the dog’s body with much-needed potassium, which can be absorbed 100% from the food;
• Rapeseed oil is a storehouse of fatty acids, as well as a unique source of vitamin E, which is 99% absorbed from rapeseed oil. Also distinguished by monounsaturated fatty acids of the oleic series;
• Alfalfa enriches the food with a wide range of amino acids, fluoride, calcium and potassium, and is also rich in essential oils that are beneficial for dogs. An indispensable component for lowering cholesterol, improves metabolism and, most importantly, increases hemoglobin;
• Coconut oil enriches feed with fatty acids, improves digestion and accelerates feed digestion. Adding coconut oil to dogs' food helps balance the diet and regulate digestion;
• Apples are a source of fiber, vitamins, and most importantly, pectin, as a basis for joints. Regular consumption of pectin guarantees healthy joints in dogs, even in old age;
• Carrots are a source of fiber, vitamins and minerals, but the main substance that dogs need from this vegetable is beta-carotene. It is necessary from the first days of a puppy’s life;
• Cranberry is added to Go's food as a flavoring additive that enhances the taste of lamb, and is also an inexhaustible source of vitamin K1, as well as vitamin B and PP;
• Dried chicory root is a storehouse of amino acids, beneficial microelements, but most importantly, it gives energy throughout the day. Adding chicory to your dog’s diet will help activate the animal during walks and regulate the biological clock of sleep and wakefulness;
• Lactobacillus – beneficial bacteria for the gastrointestinal tract;
• Enterococcusfaecium – bacteria that restore intestinal microflora;
• Calcium D-pantothenate is responsible for stimulating corticosteroids, accelerating the processes of regeneration and wound healing several times. A particularly important element in nutrition for pregnant dogs, as well as for animals that are being prepared for competitions;
• Riboflavin is an essential water-soluble vitamin responsible for coenzymes of chemical processes in a dog’s body. Helps maintain a high level of immunity;
• Dried rosemary is a herbal digestive aid that enriches food with beneficial essential oils. Adding rosemary to dog food improves digestion, improves appetite and eliminates gas;
• Vitamin A is responsible for good vision and bone tissue regeneration. This vitamin is fully replenished only through nutrition, therefore it is the most important ingredient in feed;
• Thiamine mononitrate is a subtype of vitamin B1, responsible for cell regeneration. Regular consumption slows down aging and is responsible for rapid recovery from illness;
• D3 is a vitamin that promotes the absorption of calcium and phosphorus. It is especially important that the vitamin be present in the diet of dogs during the cold season, when sunny days are short;
• Inositol is a substance responsible for thinning the blood. Helps avoid cardiovascular diseases, as well as problems with veins and blood clots;
• Vitamin E is the most water-soluble antioxidant responsible for skin rejuvenation and coat quality;
• L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate is responsible for protein synthesis, which maintains the condition of bones, cartilage, and teeth in the dog’s body;
• Niacin - supports the cardiovascular system in the body;
• Folic acid converts carbohydrates into energy and is also responsible for red and white blood cells in a dog's bone marrow;
• Pyridoxine hydrochloride - responsible for the correct synthesis of nucleic acids and delays the aging of the body. Important for the full functioning of dogs;
• Biotin - helps the proper functioning of the sebaceous glands, is responsible for the skin and hair health of dogs;
• Mineral range : zinc, iron, copper, manganese proteinate. As well as zinc and manganese oxide, copper and iron sulfate;
• Taurine - increases the dog's endurance, improves the functioning of the nervous system and heart function;
• Selenium yeast, as well as yeast extract , are responsible for metabolism, and regular consumption of these components directly affects the dog’s skin and coat. In this case, the wool becomes shiny and intensely bright;
• NaCl - rapid bone regeneration and preservation of elastic bone mass throughout the dog's life;
• L-lysine - is responsible for the high digestibility of calcium, lowers cholesterol levels, and also prevents early aging of the animal’s body;
• DL-methionine - responsible for normalizing hormones and other important processes in the body;
• Yucca Schidigera extract - activates digestion, eliminates inflammatory processes, improves liver and intestinal function.

In the dry food under consideration, strict proportionality of the components is observed.

Calorie content of dry food Goy for dogs is 409.8 kcal per 100 g of finished product.

We put the additives in order

It was strange for us to discover that the order of ingredients on the Russian label of this food does not correspond to what is printed in the English composition on the packaging. By reviewing and placing GO! Daily Defense Lamb Meal Recipe in the rating, we have adjusted the description of the substances in Russian in accordance with the English version.

Thus, potassium chloride is in 11th place, dried seaweed and dried chicory are in 15th and 16th places, and immediately behind them are two types of probiotics - Lactobacillus and Enterococcus faecium. By the way, in the Russian language they are translated inaccurately: in fact, these are dried fermentation products of these two types of microorganisms.

We have moved yeast extract to the last place in the list of main ingredients, since this is where it is listed in the English list of ingredients. After several other rearrangements, it turned out that the English version does not contain Aspergillus, calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate, which are indicated on the label for Russian buyers.

Perhaps this discrepancy is due to the human factor during translation or a change in composition. But in the second case, the Russian-language sticker should always change in accordance with the new list of ingredients.

Gou dog food: daily value by weight

In order for the dog to be at a normal weight, it is important to maintain the proportion of food. When choosing a diet, pay attention to the following factors:

• Dog's weight. Be sure to weigh your dog once a month and track its weight chart. He must meet the standards for age, height at the withers and breed of dog. This way you can adjust the ideal weight of Go's dog food per serving;
• Age of the dog. For puppies, there is a separate line for the amount of food per puppy weight;
• Dog activity. Remember that the more active the animal, the more energy it requires.

Advantages and disadvantages

When you are waiting for the owner to pour food

Next, we will consider the advantages and disadvantages of this product.

Let's start with the pros:

1. According to the manufacturer, with regular use of Go Natural Holistic food, you can keep your pet's body in excellent shape. Go Natural Holistic contains highly digestible proteins, so your dog will be happy with this food.
2. Feed consumption. As mentioned above, Natural Holistic products contain 50% more protein, as a result of which they are able to meet all the daily needs of your pet. Thus, the dog eats less, but its body receives the necessary amount of all nutrients. Natural Holistic food helps normalize stomach function.
3. Best quality. According to official data, the elements that make up Go's products have been tested in laboratory tests. As a result, Go products have been recognized as suitable for human consumption. In fact, this food is one of the first to use fruits and vegetables instead of porridge.
4. Quality. According to the manufacturer, the company's products are regularly tested by the relevant Canadian safety authorities. It should be noted that Go food was approved not only by the Canadian inspection, but also by the American and European ones.

Sorry, there are no surveys available at this time.
Now as for the disadvantages:

1. Not suitable for all dogs. It is impossible to say exactly which animals this food is not suitable for; in this case, everything is connected with certain characteristics of the body. However, according to reviews from owners on the Internet, in some cases, indigestion occurs. Of course, such information cannot be completely trusted, however, we must pay attention to it.
2. Difficulty of search. Although the food is of fairly high quality, it cannot be found everywhere. In the capital regions of Russia, Belarus and Ukraine, of course, you can find these products. However, in peripheral regions it may be difficult to find. The only solution is to purchase via the Internet.
3. High price. Perhaps the quality of Go products is really high. But today the cost of such feed in the countries of the former CIS is too high. This is despite the fact that, as experts in this field say, you can find cheaper food that will be no worse. Of course, it cannot be eaten by humans, but does that matter?

Go's food for dogs: reviews from veterinarians

Reviews of Gou dog food:

• Andrey : I recommend Go’s dog food for my clients as the main diet and as an addition to regular food. In the frantic pace of modern life, it is difficult to create a complete, balanced diet even for yourself, let alone for your pets. But in the case of four-legged friends, everything can be much simpler - we look at the dog’s condition, if necessary, take tests, analyze it and prescribe high-quality holistic food.
• Irina : every day they bring dogs, and sometimes puppies, to our veterinary clinic with already damaged gastrointestinal tracts. People think that all food is equally healthy, but even worse - they think that feeding “from the table” is the best idea. Don't forget that a person's diet and a dog's diet are two different concepts. The basis of a dog's diet is animal protein. And sweets are generally poison for dogs! I’ve been switching dogs to Go’s holistic dog food for many years now, and in all cases the dogs’ condition has improved dramatically! The animals are active, healthy and delight their owners in excellent condition.
