What is Normal Dog food

When we say "normal dog food" we simply mean dog food that contains grains. On the day this article was written, it's by far the most popular choice with pet owners.

It's easy to find a normal dog food, it's sold everywhere from your local kiosk to the largest pet shops. Normal pet foods are generally cheaper than grain free pet foods.

What exactly are grains though? Any of these ingredients in pet foods can be classed as grains:

- Wheat
- Corn
- Barley
- Oats
- Rye
- Rice
- Soy

It's logical to question why grains exist in Pet Foods if there's a reason to have NON grain pet foods. The answer is simple: Grains are a great source of nutrients and cheaper than the alternative. They provide carbohydrates (energy) and fiber (to help digestion).

So why choose Grain Free dog food?

Any pet food without any of the ingredients listed above is classed as "grain free". Dogs still need those nutrients and energy though, so Grain Free pet foods will use a different source for carbohydrates such as potatoes.

For some dogs there is a huge benefit in grain free pet foods. Grain free pet foods are generally more expensive as they use the alternative (and more expensive) source of ingredients. They're usually paired with higher quantities of meat and fresh produce (but not always!).

Grain free pet foods (especially the mono-protein ones) offer a great choice for any pet owners with pets who suffer from allergies. With help from your pet nutritionist or vet, you can usually find what ingredient your pet is allergic to, by feeding grain free and mono-protein pet foods!

Is normal pet food or Grain Free pet food better?

There is no clear answer to this question and as with all diets, it depends on what is correct for each individual pet in your home. We always recommend consulting a Pet Expert before changing diet, to ensure you're taking all the necessary steps and never switching diets too quickly (Read out Article on how to change your pet to a new food, click here).

Taking into consideration that all of the leading brands have created Grain Free variants of their food, it can be said that more and more pet owners are slowly leaning towards Grain Free pet foods.
