Birkdale Medicinals Releases Healthier Pet Mix for Dogs with ...

Lake Orion, MI (PRWEB) January 29, 2008

Birkdale Medicinals releases healthier pet mix for dogs with cancer. Birkdale Medicinals owner, Tom Peters, had a very unusual response to the death of his beloved family dog from cancer ? he wanted to know why. What he found out made him create a healthier food called Birkdale pet mix. The recent scrutiny of dog food ingredients and the lack of nutritional value it provides has sparked a debate over the rise in cancer in dogs. The result is a newly formulated healthy dog food with herbal supplements to boost a pet?s nutrition and natural immune system.

Are Americans feeding their dogs food that causes cancer? Canine cancer is on the rise and the culprit could be bagged dog food. Animal Protection Institutes?s recent survey of veterinarians in conjunction with the Association of Veterinarians for Animal Rights found that more than 90 percent of veterinarians responding to the survey said they have concerns about pet foods. ?If the American public knew what went into their dog?s and cat?s commercial food, you?d see some major changes in purchasing choices.? Another vet commented, ?I believe that the incredibly poor quality of commercial pet foods is largely responsible for the continued increase in chronic, degenerative diseases in dogs and cats.?

Tom?s research discovered that bagged dog food, even premium brands, consist of primarily of carbohydrates like rice and potato flour, sugar and meat byproducts. Chemicals that preserve fat also cause cancer and kidney failure. The most common chemicals used are BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole) and BHT (butylated hydroxytolulene), both known to cause liver and kidney dysfunction. These poisons are being ingested by dogs in every meal they eat. An Australian Veterinary Surgeon, Dr Ian Billinghurst, states in his book ?Give Your Dog A Bone? ? ?In the case of domesticated dogs, cancer is on the rise, developmental disorders are commonplace, life expectancy is shortening and domestic dogs are more fragile and more expensive to maintain nowadays, than ever before. There has also been a massive international industry built up around processed dog food, health treatments and more recently ?snack foods? for our dogs.?

In response to this, BirkDale Medicinals has developed a non-grain pet mix formula specifically designed to give dogs maximum nutrition. This is especially important for dogs with cancer and other serious diseases. Canines need unprocessed fruits and vegetables to provide nutrients that contribute to easy digestion and absorption of nutrients. They also help to enhance a dog?s immune system. There are no preservatives, grains or chemical additives which makes this food easy for dogs to metabolize. The healthy mix of vegetables and whole foods is unique because customers add their own meat, which insures a higher level of meat quality with fewer preservatives. This pet mix also includes anticancer herbal supplements that augment traditional treatment.

1? Breed.? Some breeds are more prone to cancers, such as Boxers, Cocker Spanials, and Border Collies.? Large Breed dogs are more prone to bone cancers, and darker colored dogs are more prone to skin cancers, as are many of the hairless dog breeds.?

2? Genetics.? If you are buying a registered dog, certain lines are more prone to problems,? you would have to do breed research on your own to deterimine this, a breeder and breed book could help.? Most Reputable breeders would not breed dogs of lines where cancer has been a problem, but their are plenty of non-reputable breeders.? Ask to see the health documentation done on the parent dogs.?

3? Spaying and Neutering.? Either surgery, based on the gender of your dog, will eliminate several causes of cancer.? A neutered male dog, has no testicles, therefore cannot get testicular cancer.? There are in fact several cancer risks eliminated or lowered with this surgery.

4? Food.? You probably didn?t realize buy many ingredients in dog food have been linked or suspect to causing cancers in pets.? Two are the cheap preservatives BHT, and BHA.? Better foods do not use these.? The other huge contributor is ?By-Products?, which are (depending on country) beaks, feet, feathers, and can even contain cancerous tumors.? However, what makes by-products so bad, is they are preserved with a nasty chemical Pesticide ?Ethoxyquin?.? This pesticide has been banned from use in some counties, but is often still used in pet food.? It may not even appear on your ingredient list because it is considered part of the By-Product.? There are several foods that do not contain By-Products, but you may have to search them out at independant pet food supply stores, groomers,?or livestock feedstores.

5? Household Chemicals.? If you use chemicals on your lawn, or on?floors, they very likely enter into? your dogs body.? Dogs lick their paws several times a day, thus ingesting any chemicals.? Air freshening sprays will coat a dogs small lungs and can contribute to cancer if even by putting the pets lungs under stress.?

6? Age.? Nothing you can do here, with good luck your dog is going to get older, but this is definately a factor.? It is important to be aware that as dogs get older they are more prone to problems, so we need to keep on top of any changes, because if we allow a problem to get too bad before we seek Veterinary help, there might not be anything we can do for the dog.?
