As dog parents, we would do anything to give our pups the best life ever, and it often starts with the quest to find the best diet for dogs. For so long, most dog parents have assumed that premium commercial food is the way to go, considering that the highest quality comes at a premium price. But is it true?
David and Nicole shared their journey to find the best food for their lovely pup, Sasha, and why they finally trusted her diet to Lyka. The answer is simple: our dogs would tell us themselves if they could. When we give them the option, they just know what’s best for them.
Meet David and Nicole’s pretty pup, Sasha
Sasha is a 13-month-old Finnish Lapphund. She is a gentle, warm, and loving puppy. She loves to cuddle and show affection.
Starting with the wrong assumption
Before Sasha entered David and Nicole’s lives, they assumed that “high quality” commercial dog food was the best diet for dogs, especially since it’s typically recommended by veterinarians. “How wrong we were!” they recall. It didn’t take them long to discover that the phrase “high quality” didn’t mean anything—it translates to “highly processed” and “highly additive-based”. David and Nicole said, “Not at all what we would have intentionally fed to our dog had we known beforehand.”
On a mission to find real “high quality” food
Before finding Lyka, Sasha was on another company’s raw diet. After some research and a meeting with Sasha’s breeder, David and Nicole decided to pursue a raw diet. But it didn’t go as planned—Sasha rarely ate, and when she did, she had loose and foul-smelling bowel movements. “We knew it wasn’t right for her,” they admitted.
Sasha’s new diet allows her to just be a puppy
Sasha has been on Lyka for over six months now. Since being on Lyka, Sasha’s gut health is stable, she’s maintaining a healthy weight, her 13-month-old coat glows, and every day her bowl is licked clean.
