Need a canine nutrition resource, can you help?

[AuntieCrazy]

I have several co-workers who have dogs and are seeking the kind of info that can be found on catinfo.org and catnutrition.org, but for canines...

Anyone know of a site, or multiple sites, I can recommend for them?

Thanks!

The Dog Food Project - How does your Dog Food Brand compare?

Mordy, the site owner, used to be an active member here. She's fantastic and the site is a great resource.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry, I should have added, "other than the dog food project".

That site is unbelievably info-rich, but it's more about commercial foods than it is about canine nutrition.

Thank you so much for the way-quick response, though!

Mordy also has a consulting business from there where I'm sure she can give you tons of great nutrition-specific information.

ETA: Dogs are slightly more complicated than cats in terms of nutrition, because we've been actively screwing with their biology for God-knows how many years by this point. There is more research needed to design the best diet for your personal dog.

Hmmm... about.com has some really good articles on feline nutrition, but I have never checked out the dog section. It might be a good place to look!

I'll second that. Mordy's pretty much the only source I've seen that I have any real faith in after looking at a lot of different sites.

Ok, thanks for the links everyone!

I had Mordanna from the dog food project make up a home prepared diet for my Dobe mix Beau. I am thrilled with it and so is my homeopathic vet. Beau is doing fantastic and staying the exact same weight and his blood tests come back perfect. I am very impressed with my consultation for Beau.
