Dog Food Logic
Author: Linda P. Case, M.S.
Publisher: Dogwise Publishing
ISBN: 1617811467
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
Choosing the right dog food in a world with too many choices
Walking down the dog food aisle in a pet supply superstore can present you with an overwhelming number of choices. Reading about dog food on the internet can make your head spin with so many opinions and stories. And judging the content that you find on dog food packaging can be confusing and misleading. How can the average dog owner make an informed choice in accordance with her dog’s age, size and condition? In her latest book, author Linda Case describes how to make logical, evidence-based decisions for what to feed your dog amid all the options available.
You will learn
• How pet food marketers appeal to your emotions to persuade you to buy a particular type of dog food.
• To distinguish between scientific, evidence-based information and the anecdotal evidence which is so pervasive—and often misleading—in the dog food arena.
• Is there a scientific basis for dog foods designed specifically for puppies, senior dogs, canine athletes—even various breeds of dogs?
• How to read and evaluate all of the material included on a typical package of dog food from the ingredients and label claims (“Natural,” “Anti-Oxidant,” “Low Fat”),to the Nutrient Analysis and Nutritional Adequacy statements.
• How to avoid choice paralysis and the cognitive traps that can interfere with clear decision making.
What experts are saying about Dog Food Logic
Pet food is like a religion for many—but now those strong emotional ties can be backed up with fact. Linda Case separates fact from fiction, explains the complex terms and offers a guide to pet nutrition in simple to comprehend language. Unlike other books on this topic, there is no agenda here—except to present facts and then allow pet owners to make their own logical conclusions, letting the kibble drop where it may.
Steve Dale, CABC, columnist Tribune Content Agency; radio host Black Dog Radio Productions and WGN Radio (Chicago); contributing editor USA Weekend; special correspondent Cat Fancy; author Good Cat!
Dog Food Logic is the indispensable guide to the science behind canine nutrition that will help us to make wise, well-informed choices about how and what we feed our dogs. It takes the fear out of trying to understand proper nutrition and will empower us to determine what is best for the health of our dogs.
Claudia Kawczynska, Founder and Editor-in-chief of The Bark
Don’t read this book if you want someone to tell you what to feed your dog. This is a book for people who want to learn, in a reasoned and thoughtful way, how to figure it out for themselves. Dog Food Logic goes way beyond the usual textbook list of nutritional requirements to cover the pet food industry in all its glory: the history, the business, the marketing, and best of all, the science. Case deftly navigates the most controversial topics in pet food and presents the big picture without interjecting judgment about what approach is best. There’s something here for everyone: pet care professionals and dog lovers alike will learn something new from this informative, easy to read, and well researched book.

Lorenzo Lullaby

Category : Dogs
Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
I found Lorenzo's voice through this writing experience. People really do like to laugh at themselves; some just have to be taught how. I enjoy a gut-wrenching laugh more than a hot fudge sundae. Save the calories and delve into a childlike state with sweet, leg-slapping episodes. Lorenzo has quite a reputation to live up to, and he takes it seriously. His stories are frequently requested: "Please bring me a Lorenzo story. I need to laugh." "My bags are packed for my hospital stay; do you have a new doggie story for me?" "Reading about Lorenzo's adventures takes my mind off my pain." What could be a better motivation to write than to heal heart and body? Sandra believes people can learn from dogs. "My serenity comes from having a personal relationship with Christ, a sense of humor, and following my dog's lead. We humans spend our lives running and wanting. We can learn to relax, reflect and enjoy the moment. A dog's life is a pretty swell life Sandra Wilks resides in wine country, Temecula, California. She grew up in Coastal San Diego, Rancho Santa Fe, and attended San Diego State University. After having raised two children as a single parent, at age fifty she moved with her horse, cat and dog to the Cascades of Oregon, not knowing a soul. She established the Silver Living Ranch on acreage and surrounded herself with domestic and wild animals. She enjoyed horseback riding in the forest. River's Edge Realty and Western Art Gallery were born after she purchased and refurbished an older building overlooking a river. She then founded a community newspaper. She remained in Oregon twelve years living her dream life. Sandra believes people can learn from dogs. "My serenity comes from having a personal relationship with Christ, a sense of humor, and following my dog's lead. We humans spend our lives running and wanting. We can learn to relax, reflect and enjoy the moment. A dog's life is a pretty swell life " "Communicating with animals is in my blood. They seem to recognize a friend in me-they trust me. I believe it's based upon mutual respect. Our kinship began in my childhood when I shared my sorrow and joy with my beagle and pony. On the Silver Lining Ranch I shared my affection with: bantams, geese, horses, goats, dogs, cats and others. My grandfather, an accomplished equestrian, founded a private zoo." She is an optimist and shares her love for life with those around her. Her endeavors include: volunteering, watercolor and oil painting, photography, music. She teaches art to children and seniors. This compilation of sweet stories is offered to bless people who need a little sunshine in their lives. They express her belief in obeying promptings to follow God's will. His hand and heart are clearly in her tales and life. Her stories are always encouraging. Sandra reminds complainers, "Bored people are boring. Put a smile on your face and look for the sunny side. If you look, you're sure to find it."
