European Dog Brands?

Question

Can anyone give me a list of good European dog brands? I have looked for 6 star dog foods for my mini pinscher but they are all brands of the United States.

I would really like your help...

I want to feed my dog the best.

Answer 1

I don't know European brands, but reading the ingredients is a universal way to find a quality dog food.

Here's what I look for:

1) When I chose a dog food, I chose one high meat content. I want to see preferably at least 2-3 out of the top 5 ingredients be meat or meat meal (first ingredient must be!). Meal is simply the meat with the moisture removed.

2) I want to see higher quality grains, such as barley, brown rice, and oatmeal, instead of seeing wheat and corn. Or an alternative starch/carbohydrate such as potatoes or sweet potatoes.

3) I don't want to see any byproducts.

4) I don't want to see a lot of fillers.

5) I don't want to see preservatives that are believed to be carcinogens (BHA, BHT, ethoxyquin).

6) I don't want to see artificial colorings such as the Red, Blue, and Yellow dyes.

7) I don't want to see added sugars (sugar, corn syrup).

8) I don't want to see mystery meats (meats identified only as "meat" or "poultry".)

ADD:

Do they sell ZiwiPeak where you live? It's an Australian dog food, very high quality. (But here in the USA, it also comes with a very high price tag, not sure what the prices are like over there.)
