Choose pet food based on life stage, breed, and medical needs, not marketing. Read ingredient lists (protein-first), control portions, limit treats to 10% calories, and transition diets slowly over 7–10 days. Avoid unsafe human foods and unnecessary supplements. Reserve grain-free or specialty diets for documented needs and consult a vet or certified pet nutritionist for chronic issues. Regularly monitor body condition score and seek expert advice—apps like Conbun can connect you with qualified pet nutrition help and guidance today.
