Maryland Dogfest
Hope you had a chance to make it to the Dogfest this year! I was only able to see a couple of presentations. Dogs are amazing!
There where 100’s if not a 1000 dogs at Dogfest, this one caught my eye. I really like the way it looks. The dog is a result of a mix of three different dog breeds.
We were able to adopt a couple of dogs out to their new forever homes. We even recruited some foster homes, thank you to our new fosters and new families.
Preliminary study suggests mercury not a risk in dog foods: Study looked at methylmercury levels in 24 dog diets — ScienceDaily
Researchers recently investigated levels of methylmercury in a small sampling of commercial dog foods and found good news for dog owners. Of the 24 diets tested, only three were positive for low concentrations of total mercury, and only one of those contained detectable methylmercury.
Unfortunately the “study doesn’t support avoiding fish or salmon-based diets”.
What do you feed your friend? We feed middle-of-the-pack dog food, not the cheap stuff but not the ultra-expensive stuff. What do you think about a raw diet for your dog?
