Trust us, this was no easy feat to pull together!



Making a quality dog food comparison and trying to isolate the super premium dog food brands is quite an overwhelming exercise. The range of commercial dog foods on the market, along with their various exclusive dog food recipes and formulas ... is quite staggering!

Even celebrities seem to be jumping on the dog food bandwagon, such as:

• Newmans’s Own Organics dog food by the late Paul Newman
• Nutrish, Rachel Ray dog food
• Halo pet food by Ellen Degeneres
• Dick Van Patten’s Natural Balance dog food.

But are they really endorsing the healthiest dog food products or not?

We encourage you to always do your research. Do a thorough dog food comparison, and don't be swayed by impressive sounding dog food ingredients on flashy labels.

We've tried to make it easy for you. You'll find important articles on our Tips for choosing top dog foods page, such as:
