Proper pet food storage is crucial to keep your dog’s or cat’s kibble fresh, safe, and nutritious. In this video, I share the top 3 mistakes pet parents make with dog food storage containers and cat food storage containers – from mixing new food with old, exposing kibble to sunlight, to dumping food directly into plastic containers.

In this episode of The BK Petcast, we sit down with The Forever Dog Life authors, Rodney Habib and Dr. Karen Becker DVM, to explore why vets recommend kibble and whether they are taught about proper nutrition in veterinary school. We discuss if kibble is bad for dogs, what’s really in kibble, and why some vets push kibble over fresh dog food alternatives. Rodney and Dr. Karen share insights into the best dog food brands, homemade dog food recipes, and their thoughts on healthier options. Plus, we dive into the controversy surrounding the world’s oldest dog, Bobi, and how alleged threats from kibble companies may have influenced the removal of the title from the Guinness World Records. 00:00 Highlights 00:42 Intro01:08 Evermore Ad02:02 Guest Welcome 06:32 How do you start your day? 09:38 Rodney’s viral moment14:16 Karen’s viral moment17:26 Failing in content creation23:10 What is the business side of Rodney & Karen like?27:28 What do you disagree on?29:49 Carna 4 Ad31:35 Why do vets advocate for ultra-processed foods?36:47 Meet people where they are39:08 Any new research/advancements that have you excited?43:54 Fear-mongering 48:08 The world’s oldest dog controversy59:07 What’s next?1:02:37 Goodbye!
