Your Questions About Organic Dog Food Coupons

admin answers:

I like “Seventh Generation” for most of the products that I buy. There is also “Earth Friendly” and “biokleen” that I have found to be really effective for household cleaning products.

As to personal care products, there are lots to make choice of. “Dr. Bronner’s” is one that has been around for many years and is a high quality totally safe product for personal body soap. Their line of body lotions – I am not too crazy about, but others seem to like them that are marketed under the name of “Dr. Bronner’s & Sun Dog’s Magic Lotion”. There is also “Avalon Organics” and Nature’s Gate” that have a line of personal care products that are totally environmentally conscience.

Almost forgot, “Mrs. Meyer’s” has household and personal care products that have been around for years as well

I buy all of them at the local Kroger store. Have also seen them at the health food stores (which tend to have higher prices). You will find that they cost more than the ‘regular’ products. I have taken to writing to the companies about that and actually have gotten some coupons from “Seventh Generation” when I did that – so something that you might want to consider doing and see what happenes when you write.

Benefits? Well, the products are not animal tested. They are natural made and have little to no effect upon the environment. While having both of those pluses, they also actually work.

If you can’t find them in your area, you can buy all of them online at a place like “Amazon” even. I will see what I can find on the products themselves and put any of their websites listed from the products below in the “source” section for you to check out.

When my cats have infections, and if it has reached the point of pus coming out of it, I press the area to drain the pus (using clean rags or paper towels). I wipe off that area with a wet (almost hot) cloth. I do not give him/her commercial cat food (as it feeds infections), but give him a high protein diet of fish/chicken, maybe a little pasta/rice, and a little vegetable [though straight fish is good for a food days]… And, I always add pure (nothing added) cranberry juice to the fish. [Tuna and Salmon mix best with Cranberry Juice, flavorwise.] From then on, the cat pretty much keeps it clean (licking)… And the holes heal quickly, even if he/she scratches it. I do not take my cats to a vet for an abscess (infection), but do what you think is best. [Homecooking for my cats is the general rule here.]

Also, if my cat (with an abscess, limp feels like walking, etc., I let him/her… I feel a cat knows whether the can walk in that condition or not. Too, I make sure he/she has clean water at all times, and prefer to give hi/her Spring or Distilled water.

Hope this is of some help.

Oh, BTW, Cranberry Juice is excellent for infections, fevers and a lot of other things. It can be found at health food stores and, usually, in natural/organic sections of grocery stores. It’s about $7 to $9 per 32 oz. Bottle. Stores well. (Keep it in the fridge.) I use about a capful per oz. Can of fish. RW Knudsen Juice offers coupons on the website which might help defray the cost a little. I think there’s a $.75 /1 coupon being offered now.

I have researched this in depth since my poor dog died of kidney failure due to poor quality dog food!!(this is the only reason I answer these questions … to try and save a dogs life or at least to not let him/her suffer because of bad food)
Fromm Dog Food is Great for dogs and cats …http://www.frommfamily.com/ $42- $45 per 30 lb bag
NO fillers….some good quality grains….NO corn….gluten or by-products or wheat
ALL human grade food….fruits…veggies and probiotics!!WHOLE fruits and veggies!!!! Just like the kind we get at our grocery stores!
Check it out you wont regret it !FROMM 4 STAR product line is the best!!!!!!!FROMM is a 100% holistic dog food.FROMM also has a grain-free option called surf & turf

http://www.tasteofthewildpetfood.com/TOTW has a high protein content (not recommeded for non athletic dogs)
Taste of the Wild contains Ethoxyquin which is a toxic fish preservative. (TOTW says that the cooking process kills all of it but it scared me away from their product)
around $42 for a 30 lb bag …. Its the cheapest 6 star food ..

Http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/ lots of great dog food choices on this site !!

Orijen and Welness are great but it is $60 – $80 for a 30 lb bag…high protein as well ..not good for non athletic dogsOrijen is WAY to high in protein for a non working/non-agility dog ..
Fromm Is what my puppy gets it has a lower protein % and great ingredients! 5 outta 6 stars due to lower protein (but most dogs should not have high protein levels …. It makes their kidneys work overtime for no reason)
You can get it online and if you go to the website you can find stores near you .. They wont be at walmarts and the like… They are in feed stores .. Agway..tractor supply stores etc

IF your dog is not going to be a hard working/agility dog all this high protein can do more harm than good in the long run,,, you wont notice it now but it can take its toll on a dogs kidneys as it ages.
