The ugly reality of commercial pet food
There has always been the open debate of whether it is better to feed your pet table scraps, leftovers, and home made food, or whether they should only be fed with a commercial brand of dog or cat food. Some of the pet owners use a mixture of both products to care for their dog, and others feed only home cooked food, or only processed pet food.

We like to think that our pets are eating quality meats and grains like we buy for ourselves to eat, but the truth is, that pet foods are usually made from the leftover scraps from slaughter houses, and often from things like road kill, and even pets that are put to sleep at the vets office. These dead animals are often diseased, or full of chemicals, and not something we would even think of feeding our beloved pets.
The following article is gruesome, but an eye opener of just what is in our commercial dog and cat foods.
