panda Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Does anyone have a good understanding of the ingredients in pet food? I am a bit concerned about the Meat & Bone Meal in the Sunday Pets dog food. According to a lot of information on the Internet, meat and bone meal are supposed to be by-products. My dog is in the transition from Artemis grain free to Sunday Pets grain free at the moment and I was thinking of getting the Deliganics Senior for him, until I noticed that all of the Sunday Pets food contain Meat & Bone Meal. The Deliganics is not grain free as it contains barley. Is 27% ground barley too high?

cavNrott Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Bone meal is packed with nutrients for dogs. If you have a query about Sunday Pet Foods their customer service is pretty good. They get back to you fairly quickly with answers for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
