🐾 Helping dog owners understand food, nutrition, everyday care and costs. Raw, kibble or wet — all welcome! Know What’s in Your Dog’s Bowl.

What’s in Zach’s bowl today? And is it balanced?

Natures Menu Country Hunter, duck necks, a little kibble for crunch, sprats and a sprinkle of crushed roasted pumpkin seeds.

And Zach absolutely loves it!

But here’s something important. Just because a bowl contains lots of different ingredients doesn’t automatically mean it’s balanced.

The secret is starting with a complete and balanced food and keeping extras in proportion.

Do you actually know whether your dog’s raw food is complete and balanced?

I’ve put together a FREE simple guide to help you understand what to look for.

ASK DOG FOOD DECODER

“My dog finishes their raw food in seconds and still acts starving. Am I feeding enough?”

This is a question we’ve come across from dog owners, and the answer isn’t always to put more food in the bowl.

A dog looking hungry doesn’t necessarily mean they’re not getting enough nutrition.

Here’s what I’d check first:

* Body condition: Can you feel the ribs easily without them being prominent?
* Weight: Is your dog maintaining a healthy weight?
* Calories: Two raw foods weighing exactly the same can contain very different amounts of energy.
* Activity and age: Puppies, active dogs and older dogs can have very different requirements.

The feeding percentage on the packet is only a starting point. Your dog’s condition tells you much more.

Have you ever had a dog that acts starving even after a full meal?

Are you spending money on extras your dog’s food already provides?

Oils, supplements, powders, vegetables, eggs… it’s easy to keep adding things to our dogs’ bowls.

But if you’re feeding a genuinely complete and balanced food, it should already provide the essential nutrients your dog needs.

That doesn’t mean extras are always wrong. It means they’re not always necessary, and adding more isn’t automatically better.

At Dog Food Decoder, we’re looking at how to feed dogs well without wasting money.

Do you add extras to your dog’s meals, or feed straight from the packet?

The concentration when rabbit ears are on the menu!

Zach and Remy know exactly what’s coming, and suddenly I’ve got their full attention!

Rabbit ears with fur are one of their favourite natural treats. The fur can add a little roughage to their diet, while the chewing keeps them occupied.

And judging by these two, they’re definitely worth waiting for!

Does your dog patiently wait for treats, or try to grab them straight away?

🎃 Don’t throw away your pumpkin – your dog can enjoy it too!

Did you know you can use almost the whole pumpkin for your dog?

The flesh: Cook until soft, mash or purée, and add a little to their usual food. A great source of fibre.

The seeds: Wash, dry and roast them plain, with no salt or seasoning. Once cooled, grind them into a fine powder and sprinkle a small amount over their food.

The skin: Best removed, especially if tough, as it can be difficult to digest.

Pumpkin can be a useful addition to both raw and kibble diets, but start with small amounts.

Watch the video – simple, inexpensive and very little waste!

Are we paying too much to feed our dogs?

We’ve had some interesting discussions about dog food costs recently, and the difference in what people spend is quite surprising.

But does paying more actually mean better nutrition?

I’m interested to know what people are feeding and whether they’ve found a good-quality food that doesn’t cost a fortune.

What’s been your best find for quality and value?

No brand bashing, just sharing experiences that might help other dog owners save money.

🚨🐾 DOG OWNERS — GO AND CHECK YOUR DOG FOOD PACKET.

There’s one word on the label that could completely change how you look at what you’re feeding.

And surprisingly, it’s not the meat percentage.

It’s COMPLEMENTARY.

Here’s why that matters. 👇

🥩 A raw food might contain 80% meat.

🥫 A wet food might look packed with quality ingredients.

🍗 A product might be advertised as natural, premium or full of goodness.

But none of those descriptions tells you whether it provides everything your dog needs.

COMPLETE means the food is intended to provide all the required nutrients when fed correctly, for the appropriate life stage.

COMPLEMENTARY means it’s intended to be fed alongside other foods or supplements to make up a balanced diet.

And here’s the part that concerns me…

You could be feeding something every single day, believing it’s a complete meal, when the manufacturer actually labels it as complementary.

That doesn’t automatically make it bad food.

But it does mean you need to know what else is required.

🔎 DOG FOOD DECODER CHALLENGE

Next time you’re near your dog’s food, turn the packet over.

Find the words COMPLETE or COMPLEMENTARY.

💬 Tell me below what yours says — and whether you already knew the difference.

I’m genuinely interested to see how many dog owners have checked this before.

No brand bashing. No judgement. Just helping each other understand what’s really in the bowl.

🐾 UNPOPULAR OPINION: THE MOST EXPENSIVE DOG FOOD ISN’T ALWAYS THE BEST. 👀

And the cheapest isn’t necessarily the worst either.

Here’s something I’ve noticed from talking to dog owners…

Some people spend £150+ a month feeding their dogs.

Others spend £40–£60.

But here’s the question nobody seems to ask enough:

Are we actually comparing what’s IN the food — or just what it costs? 🤔

🥩 Raw doesn’t automatically mean balanced.

🥣 Kibble doesn’t automatically mean poor quality.

🥫 Wet food isn’t automatically better or worse.

What matters is whether the food provides the nutrition your individual dog needs.

And sometimes the biggest surprise isn’t the price…

It’s what you discover when you read the label properly.

💬 LET’S HAVE AN HONEST DISCUSSION:

How much do you spend feeding your dog each month, and what type of food do you feed?

No judgement. No brand bashing. Just real dog owners sharing real experiences. 👇
