The Basics of Nutrition for Pets

Nutrition has long been a topic which has fascinated me. The complex interaction between nutrients within the diet can have a massive impact on the long term health of our pets.

Whatever food you choose to feed your pet it will impact on their health either in a beneficial or detrimental way. Many people are now turning to home prepared or raw food feeding. This can be an excellent way to feed your pet if the correct balance is achieved. However raw food or home cooked diets can also be very poor if not formulated with some degree of knowledge.

In this section we will look at the basics of pet nutrition and go on to discuss some of the diets which people choose to feed their pets.
