What should a balanced diet for pets include?

A diet that meets all the nutritional needs is essential to your pet's growth. Dogs and cats need over 30 essential nutrients. A balanced diet should fulfill all the caloric needs and include all the essential nutrients in the right amount and ratio.

What should I look for when buying commercial food for my pets?

When buying pet food, you should look for products that have the right mix of nutrients. One way to do this is to look for words such as "complete and balanced nutrition" on the label. Another suggestion is to look for age-appropriate food. If you have a senior pet, look for products that cater to the needs of your senior pet. You can also look for products certified by veterinary organizations such as the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.
