Fig Nourishing
The Best Food for a Pug?
Hi. I am a 7 month old Pug puppy. I am a15 pound male. I have been eating Nutro Small Bites Puppy Chicken, Rice and Oatmeal dry food since I was 3 month old. I recently read that my food is not one of the best premium dog foods. I am constantly searching my backyard for leaves, figs, berries etc. Also when my owner feeds me boiled carrots, green beans, chicken or rice I tend to get an upset stomach. I would like to be properly nourished so I have hit the internet to find out what food would be the best for my breed? Also if there is any place I could find information about my vitamin and nutritional needs on the web. I should mention that I currently get fed 3 times per day 1/2 cup per feeding. Thank you for any information that you can provide. Cheers!
Nutro is not a good food at all. Noperz. I'm glad you're looking into healthier food! 
Go to http://www.DOGFOODANALYSIS.com/ for ratings on almost every brand of dog food. The higher rating, the better.
Go to http://www.DOGFOODPROJECT.com/ for ingredients info, updates on pet food, etc.

I personally feed my dog the raw diet. He loves it. It's what nature intended for dogs to eat. However, dogs can be healthy without it, if the kibble they are fed is high quality. Here's a list of foods with good ingredients: Wellness, Solid Gold, Innova, Healthwise, Chicken Soup For The Dog Lover's Soul, Canidae, and Diamond NATURALS.
New foods are coming out that are grain free. I believe these are the best foods. Dogs don't NEED grains. However, some of these foods are too rich and have too much protein for some dogs. Here's a list of some of them: Taste Of The Wild, Canidae Grain-Free, Wellness CORE, EVO, and Orijen.
Also, you don't want to listen to most vet's recommendations on pet food. Most get paid to recommend crappy brands. They are schooled little in pet nutrition, and the classes that they do take are usually funded by an unhealthy brand of food. Here are some brands to avoid: Kibbles 'N' Bits, Purina, Iams, Science Diet, Royal Canin, Mighty Dog, Beneful, Dog Chow, Pedigree, and any generic brand.
Always read the ingredients on your pet food before buying, and make sure you know what the ingredients mean!
When switching pet foods, do it over a week long period. On the first day, feed 25% new food, and 75% old food. Do that for two days. When that's over, do 50% of each. Feed that for two days. Next, feed 75% of new food & 25% of old food. Feed it for two days. After that, feed 100% of the new food, and donate what's left of the old food to the shelter. You can also feed it to wild birds and squirrels.
I study pet nutrition. My email address is rawfeederr@gmail.com, and you can email me if you want. I'll respond to your email quickly, as I am on here almost every day.
Good luck with your dog(s)!
