該如何挑選狗狗的飼料?
用評分準則表來看看自己餵的狗食得幾分吧!
個人覺得,評分的標準有一定的可靠性
至少比「幾星級」或「有無出過問題」要來的公正的多

How to grade your dog's food:
如何挑選狗食:
Start with a grade of 100:
從100分開始計算
1) For every listing of "by-product", subtract 10 points
有任何by-product成分的 每一項扣10分
2) For every non-specific animal source ("meat" or "poultry", meat, meal or fat
) reference, subtract 10 points
有任何不確定動物來源(肉粉或是肉蓉) 每一項扣10分
3) If the food contains BHA, BHT, or ethoxyquin, subtract 10 points
如果成分裡有BHA BHT或是ethoxyquin(防腐劑的一種) 扣10分
(這邊稍微解釋一下原因:ETHOXYQUIN對貓/狗的安全性未有詳細報告,而BHA/BHT之類的防腐劑有致癌的危險)
4) For every grain "mill run" or non-specific grain source, subtract 5 points
有任何穀物 如果有研磨或是沒確定來源的 每一項扣5分

the top 3 ingredients, subtract 3 points
如果蛋白質來源不是肉粉,而前3項來源只有使用兩種以下的肉 扣3分
