Evaluation of protein content and quality in complete dry dog food
Original language description
The aim of this study was to determine the content of crude protein and essential amino acids in complete dry foods for dogs bought in the Czech Republic's trading network and to compare the observed values between the two groups of food containing cereals and not containing cereals, so-called grain-free. Each group included 10 samples of foods from 5 different manufacturers, intended for each of the 2 different categories of dogs (puppies and adult dogs). The results were further compared with the current FEDIAF (2018) and AAFCO (2014) standards and the requirements of the NRC (2006). Grain-free foods had higher average crude protein content and all essential amino acids. Statistically significant differences were found in the amino acid content of threonine, valine, isoleucine, histidine, lysine, arginine and in sum of essential amino acids. In the grain containing group, 4 samples had a methionine content below the recommended minimum, two samples of the grain-free food had a reduced methionine content and one sample the phenylalanine content.
