There is commercial dog food and there is veterinary dog food, or the prescription dog food your vet recommends. Sometimes after veterinary exams or procedures the veterinarian will recommend prescription dog food. There are a few key things to look for when deciding on which veterinary dog food formula you are going to buy.

Look at the Preservatives

One major difference between the average dog food and the veterinary food formulas is in the type of preservatives. High quality food will have natural preservatives such as Vitamin E, rather than chemical preservatives.

Look at the Number of Ingredients

The fewer ingredients listed in the food, the healthier it is. Food with long lists of ingredients contains more chemicals and byproducts. Food with fewer ingredients contains more natural nutrients and usually contains higher quality meat.

By comparing the ingredient lists of dog foods you can easily learn more about the veterinary formula food. The quality of preservatives and ingredients is what makes the veterinary formula food different from the regular dog food that most dog owners purchase.
