Description

Best Dog 18/6 is crafted for the “easy keeper.” This formula is specifically designed for dogs with very low activity levels—such as senior dogs who prefer the porch to the field or pets prone to significant weight gain.

It includes the necessary vitamins and minerals to support a healthy immune system and basic metabolic functions. By providing a kibble that is high in volume but lower in energy density, Best Dog 18/6 allows your dog to feel full and satisfied while staying within a healthy weight range. It is an economical and effective choice for multi-dog households where a basic maintenance diet is the priority.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the product.

Calves can be introduced to 16% Calf Creep Feed as early as 4 to 6 weeks of age, once they begin showing interest in nibbling solid feed. Early exposure helps calves gradually adapt from a milk-based diet to grain and forage, supporting proper rumen development. Starting creep feed early can also reduce stress at weaning and encourage steady growth, especially when pasture quality is declining or milk production from the cow begins to drop.

I source my grain for animal and livestock feeds based on local suppliers. Often, I purchase directly from local farmers, especially if they produce seasonal crops. Additionally, I buy high-quality feed from larger agricultural supply companies when necessary to meet the specific needs of my animals.

To check the freshness of your feed product, start by examining its smell, as fresh feed usually has a natural, earthy scent. If it smells sour or musty, it could indicate spoilage. Next, check the appearance for any discoloration, mold, or clumping, which may suggest exposure to moisture. Feel the feed to ensure it’s not damp, as excess moisture can promote mold growth. Always check the expiration date, if available, and ensure the feed has been stored properly in a cool, dry place. Finally, look out for pests, as their presence is a clear sign of compromised feed. Regular checks and proper storage will help maintain the feed’s freshness and nutritional value.

Vital Signs in Horses

As a horse owner, you are the first line of defense. While your vet is the expert, you are the one who knows your horse’s “normal.” In an emergency, being able to provide accurate vitals can save your vet time and potentially save your horse’s life.

Horse Cooling Tips

When the humidity rises and the sun beats down, horses feel the heat just as much as we do—if not more. Because horses are large-bodied animals with heavy muscle mass, they generate a massive amount of internal heat, especially during work.

A Guide to Body Condition Scoring Your Horse

When it comes to horse health, “looking good” is subjective. One rider’s “fit” is another’s “thin,” and what looks like a “healthy curve” might actually be a metabolic red flag.

Body Condition Scoring Your Horse

Ever looked at your horse and wondered if that “roundness” is healthy muscle or a few too many flakes of alfalfa? While we all love a “shiny” horse, there is a fine line between well-covered and overweight.
