Pedigree is considered the very first dry food that entered the Russian market. The owners were eager to buy such food for dogs, because it was a good alternative to various soups and cereals. At the same time, the time for preparing food for the dog was reduced several times.
The correct formation of the diet is very important for the health, prevention of many diseases and the life expectancy of the dog. There are many offers on the modern market that allow you to feed your pet without much hassle. And the owner of the four-legged friend is trying to choose the optimal and healthy food option.
Pros of Pedigree
The manufacturers of the popular Pedigree dog food report excellent quality at affordable prices. The advertisement for such a product indicates that during its creation, all the needs of the animal were taken into account: antioxidants will increase immunity, the OMEGA complex will support the joints, and the balanced content of minerals and vitamins will ensure excellent well-being.
Veterinarians disagree, but everyone points out that this food belongs to the economy class and at least has several significant disadvantages.
Even the finest dry food cannot be considered a permanent food. These foods are easy to use and are often preferred by owners. The body of animals is initially tuned to more natural fiber foods. The owner must monitor the increased drinking regime of the pet.
Cons of Pedigree
Modern veterinary clinics note the discrepancy between the declared composition of feed and canned meat and its actual content. Some experts argue that a number of chemical flavor enhancers and a lot of unreported waste are used for the production of such food, among which may be completely harmful to digestion.
There is a big difference in the price and quality of Pedigree of domestic and foreign production. But both options can cause a lot of allergic reactions and digestive problems. Plus the lack of energy value of the product, forcing to increase portions.
Modern veterinary medicine is increasingly promoting the most natural way of feeding animals. Experts note that it is better, if necessary and under the supervision of a doctor, to diversify the diet by introducing biologically active additives. The finished Pedigree is viewed more as food in extreme conditions when there are no other feeding options available.
