A new landmark study from Butternut Box, Europe’s leading fresh dog food provider, is warning that pet owners in the UK could be unintentionally shortening the lives of their animals due to the food they are giving them.
Butternut Box is calling for increased transparency on pet food labels so consumers can easily understand what they’re feeding their pets.
Scientists warn that kibble and wet/canned diets could be taking years off a dog’s life as they contain harmful chemicals linked to inflammation, kidney disease, diabetes, cognitive decline and cancer.
