Comparison of nutrient and energy content in dry dog foods from the market in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The main aim of this study was to evaluate the amounts of fundamental nutrients and energy in complete dry dog foods, which are available within the dog food market in the Czech Republic, and compare the results admits the two chosen types of food ? grain containing and not containing grain, called grain-free. Twenty samples from different manufacturers were collected from each group appointed to four dog age categories (puppy, puppy large breed, adult, and senior). The results were compared to present recommendations stated by the European Pet Food Industry Federation (2018) and the Association of American Feed Control Officials (2014) as well as to recommendations of the National Research Council norms (2006). Between both groups were analyzed statistical differences in the content of crude protein, nitrogen-free extract, ash, and crude fiber. In grain-free foods, statistically highly significantly higher values were assessed in the amount of crude protein and ash, statistically significantly higher in the presence of crude fiber. Statistically significantly lower amount was assessed in nitrogen-free extract in comparison with grain containing foods.
