    I love this – finally someone (with impeccable credentials) willing to speak in everyday terms about which pet foods to look at and those to run away from. Of course since I reside in Canada it might have been nice to have been mentioned as a possible source for some of these products as well BUT hey, that’s my problem.

    Thanks Dr. Becker

    This is great. It’s incredibly informative and the presentation of the material is flawless. I think I have a crush on this woman, and my canine will benefit from it. : )

    Nice to see a vet that knows what she is talking about when it comes to food. The veterinarian I work for, while being great at the other parts of his job is not very knowledgeable when it comes to food and treats. Another product of no real nutrition classes taught in vet school.

    Thank you, now please can you do this with cat food? I get it, but hearing you explain each item for the brands would help reinforce what I need to know for healthy, happy cats.

    Thank you for spreading the word of why people need to feed their carnivorous pets REAL MEAT! The ignorance of using dry cat and dog food must be broken!

    Excellent, informative, life changing video. Thank your for being so clear. I have know all this for over a decade. It is sad to realize some sheeple dont read pet food labels. Also some pet food manufactures do unnecessary, cruel animal testing on their products. I choose not to support any manufacturer who does animal testing or whose parent company does the animal testing.

    This gal knows how to explain the reality of grocery store brand pet foods to the masses with some excellent references of products that have most folks completely snowed.

    Great vid! Also when you see soybean and millet in an animal’s food you are seeing goitrogens! Goitrogens can be harmful to the thyroid in animals as well as with people. My older cat is just starting to show signs of hypothyroidism and I am wondering if it is because of the soy and millet in her (I thought) wonderful Organix dry dog food. If you freeze hamburger & other raw meat for 3 days you kill all parasites and it is much healthier fo ryour pet.

    @CalgaryBoys but at least she said in the first part, without naming it, that ORIJEN FISH is the best dry food ever…(which me, italian, think alike, as well)
