About this episode
This episode explores the various pet food options available and discusses their differences and value.
Caring and concerned pet owners can now choose between a dizzying array of pet food options, ranging from the familiar kibble and cans to monthly deliveries of human-grade prepared food and even home-cooked meals made from fresh ingredients. But is there any difference between any of these foods? Are the expensive ones worth it? And if you’re one of those people who thinks about your own food quite a bit, but hasn’t really thought about your pet’s food that much, should you bother trying to change?
