Today, we're sharing the 3rd and final part of our kibble comparison series which is a breakdown of the pricing and some nutritional information for kibbles that we sell at The Pet Beastro. Take a look at the information below and see how it compares to the nutrition and price of popular grocery store kibbles (which you can view here).
Just like in yesterday's post, you can see how the price per bag of food doesn't always correspond with the overall price of feeding the food. So an expensive bag of food doesn't necessarily end up being more expensive to feed because it lasts longer. You'll also notice that, in general, the % carbs for these foods are lower than those of the popular grocery store brands.
If you're still feeding one of the brands that we talked about yesterday, we encourage you to compare the stats of that food with those of the foods listed below. Can you find another food below that's within your budget? If so, we strongly encourage you to make the switch. And if you still need help deciding on which food is best for your pet, stop by the shop and we'd be happy to help discuss more options.
