10 Grain-Free Foods Vets Actually Approve - Nutrition guide by Dr. Sarah Mitchell, DVM on PawPulse

Grain-free isn't always the answer. Here is what science says about the best diet for sensitive stomachs.

The Truth About Grain-Free Diets

In recent years, grain-free diets have become a massive trend in the pet food industry. But is it right for your dog?

According to recent studies by the FDA, there may be a link between certain grain-free diets and canine heart disease (DCM). However, not all grain-free foods are created equal.

When to Go Grain-Free

If your pet has a diagnosed allergy to corn, wheat, or rice, a grain-free diet is essential. Symptoms often include itchy skin, chronic ear infections, and digestive issues.
