Dog Chow Adult dry HYPOALLERGENIC food for adult dogs (Lamb) (Code: m62935)

Types and composition of feed

The premium class declared by the manufacturer requires a high content of meat products, but the information on the packaging does not correspond to this.

The first positions in the composition are occupied by corn and other cereals. The protein necessary for the growth and development of a dog in the form of poultry, lamb, and offal is in second place.

Detailed composition of Dog Chow food for puppies:

1. Cereals are a source of carbohydrates. But there is no detailed description or information on the packaging about what crops the manufacturer uses. Waste wheat, corn or barley will not benefit the animal.
2. Meat and processed products. The amount indicated is 8%, but the guaranteed figures are 28% protein. Vegetable protein is used, which is less easily absorbed by the animal’s body.
3. Oils and fats – replenish energy reserves and restore the animal’s strength after intense physical training. But neither the quality nor the degree of purification is known.
4. Vegetables. Only dry chicory root is indicated in an amount of 1.1%.
5. Minerals. Strengthen bones, keep muscles toned, affect brain development and vision formation, and ensure healthy and shiny coat.
6. Products of processing of raw materials of plant origin. Behind this wording, the manufacturer can hide sugar beets or another source of fiber.
7. Vitamin supplements.
8. Antioxidants.

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages:

• the price is lower than that of other premium manufacturers;
• the product is freely available;
• a special form of kibble cleans the dog’s teeth well;
• the food is enriched with a vitamin complex and mineral supplements.

Flaws:

• contains only by-products and processed products;
• there is no information about the grains, fats and other ingredients used;
• the protein percentage is low;
• dogs are poorly nourished due to insufficient nutritional value of the food.

Why Dog Chow is better than other foods

The special shape of the croquettes distinguishes “Dog Chow” from other popular ones (Probalance, Royal Canin). Purina has released a product where large and small granules are placed in one package.

The dog chews food thoroughly, nutrients are more easily absorbed, plaque is removed from the teeth, and the jaw muscles are well strengthened.

Not all dog food brands include vitamin B, which is necessary for the proper functioning of the dog’s nervous system and normalization of metabolic processes in the body. The composition of the Dog Chow food is enriched with B vitamins, the source of which is brewer's yeast.

Reviews from veterinarians

Sheina Ksenia: “The food is more suitable for encouraging an animal during training or mixed feeding. The composition is poor, there is no meat, only vegetable proteins, fiber, and by-products of unknown origin. It’s difficult for active dogs to get enough of Dog Chow kibble; the owner will have to take care of an additional source of protein.”

Lisitsyn Ivan: “Chicory is good for dogs, it helps improve digestion thanks to the prebiotic inulin. But the granules do not contain any other vegetables. I recommend combining dry and wet food, and increasing portions, especially for large individuals.”

Prokhorov Konstantin: “I don’t consider Dog Chow food from purina good or bad. An economical option is quite suitable for a dog if the animal likes the taste and smell and does not show signs of allergies or intolerances.”

Positive and negative reviews from experienced veterinarians agree that many of the ingredients on the packaging are of unknown origin, the exact amount is not indicated, and the proteins are not enough for the healthy growth of the dog. Despite this, “Dog Chow” cleans the animal’s teeth, develops the jaw, and is easily digestible.

It’s difficult to call Dog Chow a premium, complete, balanced food. The composition is poor, there is no information about the meat ingredients used, cereals, fats, antioxidants. For the main nutrition of the animal, it is recommended to look for a more suitable option that is healthier and more nutritious.
