Kibble is a convenient and inexpensive way to feed your Spinone. However the high temperature used to process it creates micro toxins and destroys much of the nutritional value. Starches are needed to form the individual pieces of kibble. They come from rice, oats, corn, barley peas etc. These are all canine inappropriate foods.


They are not good for your dog! Plus they can contribute to obesity. A better option is to feed raw, dehydrated or lightly cooked foods. These are available at most pet stores. If you watch for local sales you can often buy meat and fish for less than kibble. You can feed these raw or lightly cook them.


There is tremendous health benefits for your dog if you can even feed them part kibble and part raw/dehydrated. Even just topping your dogs bowl with fresh/raw/lightly cooked foods like carrots, bananas, broccoli sardines a slice off your dinner roast etc. is very beneficial.
