These ingredients are killing your dog.

Today we're going to do a deep dive into dog food,

0:05.7

and I'm talking about ingredients not just linked to cancer.

0:09.6

I'll cover those, but a lot of other problems as well.

0:12.7

Initially, when you read it, it's going to sound like, oh, wow, that's really good for your dog, right?

What you're actually dealing with with dog food is waste products from the
