Non-GMO Dog Food to Try

We treat our pets like royalty in our home, so why not feed them top-tier foods? While caviar might be too extreme, we encourage pet parents to do their research when it comes to what dog food they’re scooping out to Fido. Some brand-name dog foods tend to have unhealthy ingredients masked by “All Natural” labels. Use this article to guide picking your dogs and avoiding false healthy claims!

What are GMOs?

GMO stands for a genetically modified organism, meaning the plant or animal has experienced laboratory modification through its genetic makeup. These modifications yield a more extensive product or harvest; typically, we see these in fruits and vegetables, but they’re also prevalent in meat and poultry. GMOs are increasingly common within pet food, especially dogs and livestock, so it’s up to pet parents to keep these out of their homes and away from their pups! Please keep reading for our four top-recommended non-GMO dog foods for your pet to try!
