Best Dog Foodz comprises researchers, editors, veterinarians and pet nutritionists who review and rate dog foods to help dog parents find the best food for their pets.
We offer dog food recommendations for specific breeds, life stages, health complaints, and more. You can find out more on our About Us page.
We rate dog food based on the information on its label, and by looking at several nutritional factors, such as its protein-to-fat ratio and the nature and quality of its ingredients.
We do this in two simple steps:
- We study the ingredients list
- We estimate the meat content
We choose our Best Dog Food lists based on our star ratings, but also the following criteria on the brands:
- Retail availability (preferably online)
- Greatest popularity as measured by the number of user reviews
- Re-order rates
- Search interest
- Positive user reviews
For more information on how we select the brands to feature in our lists, visit our Best Dog Food Brands page.
Recalled products are also removed from these lists until we feel assured they’re safe. For more details, visit our FAQ page.
