What does this mean?
First Four ingredients: This is going to be the main
makeup of the food. Dogs are meateaters, so you want to see meat as a first
ingredient, and another meat ingredient after that.
Probiotics: These are good bacteria that are necessary
for proper bowel function. These can be wiped out with the use of antibiotics.
Oven baking: Oven baking is more natural and easier on
the nutrients in the food than the much more common extrusion.
Chelated minerals: Chelated means bonded with amino
acids (protiens), this allows them to be better absorbed by the body.
