Instructions
Look for dog foods that are free of chicken, poultry or beef byproducts and chicken, beef or bone meal. These products are considered cheap fillers, which are used to provide bulk.
Do some research online to find the healthiest foods and then narrow it down. Foods that are labeled "natural," "organic" and "holistic" are usually a safe bet as far as avoiding ingredients with high-fluoride content.
Read the package labels in the store where you shop to compare the brands that are available.
