Confused about dog food choices?
When you’re standing in a pet shop, facing rows upon rows of colorful food bags, it’s easy to become overwhelmed.
Every brand claims to be the “best.” Do the pretty pictures on the bag have anything to do with what’s inside? Why is there such a difference in price? Is a salesperson’s advice in your best interest or theirs? Is the advertised brand really better than the alternative? Your eyes glaze over and you reach for the same food you’ve been feeding. How can you get rid of that nagging feeling their might be a better choice?
You need an advocate. But who can you trust?
Now you can gain the confidence to easily choose the best food for your dog. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes from understanding how to quickly identify the pet food that best suits your needs.
What’s the real difference between brands of dog food?
Why rely on the advice of strangers who may not have your best interests in mind?
No one will be a better advocate for your pet than you. The Dog Food Detective is a guide to the simple skills you need.
Without complicated checklists or geeky science, you can become a Dog Food Detective by mastering the 3 simple concepts introduced in this book. This common sense approach serves you now and as your dog’s needs change over time.
Want to make sure you’re buying a good bag of food and not being sold a bill of goods?
This book shows you:
- how to focus only on foods right for your situation (and budget)
- what to look for (and avoid) in an Ingredient List
- when “real meat” is more marketing than meaningful
- how to look beyond the Ingredient List to find value
- what two parts of the label are most important
- why Guaranteed Analysis is misleading
- why a cheaper food may be more expensive
- how to understand the real cost of a food
- how quality and price combine to provide value
- how to instantly see through the creative confusion of labels
- how to confidently choose the right food for your pet
Looking for the name of the best dog food available?
You won’t find that in this book.
Instead, you’ll find a quick and easy system that allows you to find the right food in whatever shop you visit.
Pet food formulas change constantly. Today’s best reviewed formulas may fall out of favor next week. New foods get introduced, and others disappear.
Take comfort in knowing how to easily distinguish a food formulated with sound science from those marketed with mischief. As a Dog Food Detective, you can do that and more.
Need a more affordable food, but don’t want to compromise quality? Want to know which of two formulas provides the best value? Attracted by claims of natural or human grade ingredients? Is your dog scratching because of a new food sensitivity?
Your system easily separates useful information from deceptive advertising claims. Now you can feel good about your pet food choices based on your own understanding. Rely on sound knowledge to liberate yourself from reliance on suggestions from strangers.
Do you know as much as you want to about dog food?
You may be quite satisfied with the food you’re currently feeding. Many of us are now, but what about later? As our pets age, their system changes. With those changes, we’re faced with new choices for food.
Making those choices is easy using this simple system.
So why is this system better than what you’ve already seen?
You can find some excellent books about dog food in the bibliography of The Dog Food Detective. If you’ve read some, you’re well on your way to understand the simple system presented in the book.
Perhaps you’ve only gotten partially through some of these alternatives and found them to be as confusing as your pet food choices.
The background of the pet food industry, scare tactics of common practices, and nutritional science are all fascinating topics. But it’s an awful lot to keep in mind when choosing a bag of food.
You’ll find a different approach with The Dog Food Detective
There’s no magic behind the approach used to guide you through the maze of dog food choices. It’s a simple process that developed over the past 20 years as we helped clients choose the appropriate foods for their pets.
It’s not a one-size-fits-all brand recommendation, nor does it push the author’s personal bias for fresh food on to your choice. You’ve chosen to feed dry dog food. This system adapts to your needs, which ensures you make the proper choice for yourself.
Once you’ve read The Dog Food Detective, you’ll begin to see pet food differently. You’ll begin to apply The Dog Food Detective System™ to your choices without even thinking- it’s that simple.
What if I don’t like it?
We’re so confident that the book will help turn your confusion into clarity that you’ll enjoy our 31 day Smiley Dog money back guarantee.

For eBook purchases, simply email us and request a refund.
