Dog food started in the olden days in America where everybody goes to the neighbourhood grocery store and buy a bag of what considered dog food...it will contain mainly leftover meat from the butchery, some veggies and some other meat discards....how it changes over the years and become a multi billion highly competitive industry leaving the dog where the initial reason for the growth of this industry become the victim of industrial profit greed!
