Faut-il éviter l’alimentation classique pour nos chiens ?

L’alimentation des animaux, ou petfood, est un vaste marché dans lequel il existe divers types de qualités. Entre mensonges, manque de transparence, les professionnels grassement payés et un manque de législation font que l’on retrouve vraiment de tout dans les animaleries spécialisées, ainsi que chez certains vétérinaires. Mais qu’en est-il pour les marques les plus connues ?

Quelles sont les marques les plus connues ?

Qui ne connait pas, au minimum, une de ces trois marques : Purina, Hills, Royal Canin ? Il y en a beaucoup d’autres qui masquent, plus ou moins, leur composition. L’objectif de ces marques est de se faire une belle marge et non de nourrir sainement nos chiens.

Personnellement, comme divers professionnels de la nutrition animale, je me méfie grandement de toutes ces grandes marques vendues comme « croquettes vétérinaires » et surtout des produits Nestlé. En effet, avec les divers scandales qui sont sortis pour la nourriture humaine, mais pas uniquement, il ne faut pas s’attendre à autre chose ou du mieux de leur part concernant la petfood.

Les plus grandes marques sont-elles nocives ?

Les plus grandes marques, sont-elles une bonne source de nourriture pour nos chiens ? Ma réponse va être simple : non. Les raisons en sont simples. Elles n’apportent pas les nutriments nécessaires, manquent de transparence sur leur composition et n’utilisent pas de sous-produits de qualité.

Lorsqu’on ne reconnaît pas la moitié des ingrédients dans un aliment, cela ne suscite pas de confiance. De plus, si l’on n’arrive pas à trouver toutes les provenances et sources des divers composants, il faut se méfier de la marque. Lorsque tu vois que telle nourriture va améliorer les performances de ton chien, que l’autre aille empêcher le vieillissement prématuré de celui-ci ou encore d’autres promesses trop belles pour être vraies, il faut se méfier de ladite marque. Ces alégations ne sont que marketing.

Si tu veux pouvoir faire confiance en une marque, ne vaudrait-il pas mieux qu’elle soit le plus

Quelle marque d’aliment donnes-tu à ton chien ?

Si tu en utilises plusieurs, donne simplement celles que tu achètes le plus souvent.

Attention aux sous-produits

Quand je vois « sous-produits + plumes », un voyant rouge s’allume instantanément dans un coin de ma tête. Dans les sous-produits, il ne faut pas tolérer n’importe quoi dans la nourriture de nos chiens et chats. Si tu vois que tes croquettes actuelles contiennent l’un de ces sous-produits, je te conseille d’en changer rapidement : Crête de coq, Lobe de la gorge, Plumes, Poils, Vessie, Larynx, Yeux et paupières et Canaux auditifs. En effet, ces sous-produits n’apportent rien à l’aliment si ce n’est une matière qui n’est pas chère.

Une étiquette transparente et lisible

Pour le bien-être de ton chien, ou chat, il est important de savoir ce qu’on leur donne. Quand la liste d’ingrédients est trop longue, contiens des aliments que tu ne peux pas avoir auprès de ton boucher ou maraîcher, il faut t’en méfier.

Il ne faut pas tolérer l’utilisation de colorants ni d’arômes artificiels. Nos animaux n’en ont pas besoin. Il faut bien se dire une chose, plus la nourriture que l’on donne à nos chiens et chats est naturelle, mieux cela est.

Lorsque tu achètes des croquettes ou une boîte de viande pour ton chien, il est important que tu puisses lire la liste des ingrédients et les composants analytiques. Si tu n’as pas les deux informations, c’est qu’il y a anguille sous roche.

Une approche d’éducation globale

Pour que ton chien soit bien dans ses pattes, je peux te parler nutrition de ton chien et te recommander des marques qui sont le plus naturelles possible. Il est assez compliqué de s’en sortir dans la jungle de la petfood, mais dis-toi bien qu’un bon éducateur canin doit savoir te conseiller selon ton chien, son activité, son âge et race.

L’objectif lors d’un choix d’alimentation pour ton chien est qu’il soit en pleine forme, qu’il ait un poil brillant et doux, beaucoup d’énergie et des selles correctes. Voilà en gros ce qu’apporte une bonne nutrition à ton chien.

Si l’un de ces éléments manque, peut-être que la nourriture que tu lui donnes n’est pas optimale. Il est important de noter que les chiennes qui ont subi une stérilisation peuvent voir leur pelage perdre de son éclat.

Lectures que je recommande

Voici deux livres que je peux te recommander de lire les yeux fermés, mais l’esprit ouvert. En effet, le monde de la petfood est une industrie qui pèse lourd et est très opaque. Avec ces lectures, tu verras le côté sombre de l’alimentation de nos chiens et chats, et tu apprendras comment t’assurer du bien-être de ton ou tes animaux dans la jungle des offres proposées par les animaleries, les vétérinaires et les supermarchés.

Toxic Croquettes

Une lecture qui ne te laissera pas de marbre sur la nutrition de nos animaux. Des millions de chiens et de chats sont nourris aux croquettes et aux pâtés industriels. Une aubaine pour les fabricants, mais une catastrophe pour la santé des animaux. 

La vétérinaire Jutta Ziegler s’est penchée sur la composition des croquettes. Son verdict : formulation inadaptée, ingrédients de mauvaise qualité, les croquettes sont en grande partie responsables de la flambée du diabète, du surpoids, des maladies rénales, des allergies…

Croqueat – l’empire des croquettes

Aujourd’hui, 8 personnes sur 10 nourrissent leur animal avec des croquettes. Une habitude devenue réflexe. Un geste si simple qu’il en a éclipsé les questions essentielles : que contiennent vraiment ces croquettes ? Qui les fabrique ? Pourquoi certains animaux tombent malades ? Et comment choisir une marque fiable dans un marché saturé ?

Une lecture pour t’éveiller sur la nourriture de nos chiens et la petfood.

En résumé

Une alimentation saine te donne un chien qui est bien dans ses pattes. Il n’aura aucune carence, pas de soucis de peau et encore moins d’allergies avec, en plus, une diminution du risque de développer un cancer. Il est important de bien sélectionner les aliments que tu lui donnes, et si possibles, que ceux-ci soient le plus naturels possible.

Je reste à ta disposition si tu souhaites en savoir plus sur l’alimentation canine. N’hésite pas à prendre un rendez-vous pour ce faire.

Je précise que, bien que conseiller ANiFiT, je reste neutre et ne vais pas te vendre un produit dont tu n’as pas besoin. Si je constate que l’alimentation que tu donnes à ton chien est correcte, il n’est pas nécessaire d’en changer.
