Meat...add real, raw meat to your dog's diet...worry less about grains versus no grains and supplement in some REAL MEAT!
🥩🐟🥛 DCM & GRAIN-FREE
In my experience, dogs and cats do best on a high meat diet. Especially when we speak about cases of heart disease, meat is an invaluable source of many nutrients, but taurine is especially important for the heart. Taurine is absent in cereal grains.
They can’t put more than about 20% meat into kibble formulation, it won’t go through the manufacturing process. My diets are 70-85% meat/bone/organ for dogs and 90-95% meat/bone/organ for cats.

The drastic difference in meat content between my diets and kibble is one reason why I don’t have any kibble recommendations for you. The process involves high heat, subpar ingredients, and way too many carbohydrates. If you feed kibble, you can top it with raw meat from the grocery store (chicken, pork, beef, sardines, eggs, etc.) to boost the nutrition.
Whether your breed is predisposed to DCM or not, a species appropriate, high meat, high moisture diet will serve your cat or dog best.
