Good Nutrition Depends on High Quality Pitbull Food

Pitbull food is your Pitbull’s primary source of nutrition, so it stands to reason that the better the Pitbull food, the healthier your Pitbull will be. Look closely at the nutritional value and ingredients list of your favorite brand the next time you shop for Pitbullfood. You may be surprised to learn what your Pitbull is eating!

High quality Pitbull food brands contain all natural, human-grade, high protein, hormone- and antibiotic-free Pitbull food ingredients and no harmful chemicals, additives or preservatives. The best Pitbull food manufacturers also avoid meat by-products and fillers and use only quality grains in their recipes. Many of the Pitbull food ingredients used in the cheaper, generic Pitbull food brands are poor in quality by design; that is, these products are primarily intended to deliver a lower cost to the consumer with their inexpensive, low-quality ingredients like fillers, indigestible fibers and meat by-products. Additionally, these Pitbull food products tend to vary their ingredients according to availability of nutrient sources. How can Pitbull caregivers rely on generic Pitbullfood to meet their Pitbulls’ minimum daily nutritional requirements if they cannot depend upon the quality of the product?

It would not take long for you to feel the ill effects of a diet consisting mainly of food sources that are low in nutrition, and your Pitbull is no different. Pitbull food must provide Pitbullswith all the nutrients they require to live long and healthy lives. Pitbulls need adequate amounts of protein, fat, vitamins and minerals, following Pitbullfood standards set by the Association of American Feed Control Officials. High quality Pitbull food must also contain the essential amino acids that Pitbulls cannot manufacture by themselves, usually obtained from a balanced combination of plant and animal proteins. 

Pitbull food comes in a few different forms: canned, semi-moist and dry kibble. Neither form is nutritionally superior to any other, but semi-moist Pitbull food does contain more preservatives. Canned Pitbull food contains more moisture and fat, which many Pitbulls prefer, while dry kibble costs the least of the three and helps to keep teeth and gums clean and healthy. Some caregivers like to make dry Pitbull food available to their Pitbulls between mealtimes, acceptable so long as the Pitbull or Pitbulls in question are not overweight!

Naturally, puppies have different Pitbull food requirements. Daily protein and calorie requirements are much higher for them than for adult Pitbulls. These requirements decline as puppies grow. Contrary to adult Pitbulls, puppies should not have access to Pitbullfood all day long, as overfeeding may result. Overfeeding Pitbull food has been known to cause obesity and aggravate certain inherited bone diseases such as hip dysplasia.

Certain Pitbulls also have specific Pitbull food requirements, depending on their breed. Small, high energy Pitbulls and working Pitbulls, for example, burn calories differently from sedentary breeds and should be fed Pitbull food that meets those requirements. The important thing for caregivers to do is to thoroughly familiarize themselves with their Pitbulls’ specific nutritional requirements and buy the highest quality Pitbull food that meets their Pitbulls’ needs.
