Hello and thank you for reaching out to pet coach. Generally there is no need to be concerned about ingestion of a very small amount of this type of ice cream. Larger amounts can cause vomiting, diarrhea, or even pancreatitis in some dogs. However, a small amount is really not going to affect a dog like Tofu. Thank you for reaching out.

No problem! Happy to help! From what I could research, it appears Bewi's standards for food production are exceptional. All the protein products that come from animals are human grade- meaning they are also approved for human food which is impressive. A lot of dog foods out there do not meet this standard. They also have rigorous quality control testing which is another good mark!

I don't recommend Acana because it's grain free, and vets are seeing an increase in dogs with dilated cardiomyopathy who are on grain free diets. Here's the thing about the claims of only certain foods being "human grade": They are all human grade! The products come from animals slaughtered in plants that use the meat for human consumption. It comes from the same animal that provides chicken breasts to humans. The brands of food I recommend are the only ones that have veterinary nutritionists on staff, which ensures the food is balanced. They also meet AAFCO standards and run feeding trials. Those brands are Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. I feed my dogs Iams, and they love it. I hope this helps!

Pedigree is pretty much junk food, as long as the label marks the animal the meat or fat comes from it's fine, if it is not specify it is a good reason to be suspicious. here are a few high quality foods: Orijen, Acana, Evolve and Taste of the wild.

Some quality food brands that would be good options for Daisy include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, and Purina One. All of these brands have good quality canned and dry options. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
