Please see original post for additional details & give the WIKI and additional forum comments a read for helpful discussion.
Dog food advisor was created by a human dentist that has no education or professional background in small animal nutrition.
It's purely based on analyzing ingredients which you cannot draw quality from. As a layman you're not able to determine how bioavailable certain ingredients are vs others especially when combined.
"The ingredients list does not tell you the quality of the ingredients, the quality control processes implemented during intake and use of the ingredients, the overall digestibility or bioavailability of the diet, or the formulation of nutrients of the diet (proportion of nutrients such that the diet is complete and balanced for daily nutrition).
The ingredients list does not tell you the recipe. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight prior to processing. Kibble is dried/extruded. That means that all of the water that contributes to weight of the ingredients is lost during processing, changing the final composition in terms of what remains. Meat as the first ingredient? It's mostly water, and you don't know how much more it weighed compared to the second, third, or fourth ingredient.
Ingredients can help you identify ingredients that your dog has a known sensitivity to (diagnosed by a diet elimination trial with a veterinarian) or identify possible ingredients of concern (such as peas or other pulse legumes). Not much else. There are better ways to evaluate your pet food. " -Written by a leading expert Board Certified Vet nutritionist. https://www.alltradesdvm.com/topi...ngredients
Site down now. Doesn't seem like this would be a price mistake or anything though. I was playing around with which food to get based on that comment above that was so cheap and now hoping I don't miss out
