A high quality dog food for the Shih Tzu does not contain by-products
or inferior grains, chemical additives or preservatives of any kind.
By-products, inferior grains, chemical additives and preservatives are
all known to be harmful to your Shih Tzu.
Many times dog food manufacturers will use very high temperatures when
cooking their products. This actually destroys nutrients and vitamins.
They will then add flavor enhancers or coloring to replace what the
high temperature cooking process takes from the appearance and flavor
of the food. Pay attention to how your dog food is cooked.
A high quality dog food for the Shih Tzu will only contain natural
goodness in a superior food product that is formulated especially to
promote good health. Dog food manufacturers who are actually concerned
about the health of your Shih Tzu will be extremely careful about
every single ingredient. Fresh human quality foods from carefully
selected farmers and growers combined with the high quality extras
such as proteinated minerals, vitamins, antioxidants and bacteria
cultures are known to have a beneficial effect on the health and well-
being of the Shih Tzu as well as other canine breeds....
