Is Beneful a good dog food?

Answer by  bubbyboy (9929)

This dog food is not a good choice for your dog. The main ingredient is corn which is difficult for a dog to digest. Corn is also a source of allergies. Some claim the food weakens the dog's immune system.

No, Beneful is actually an incredibly horrible dog food. People think it is good because of good marketing, but don't be fooled! Its main ingredient is corn which you never want in a dog food, and it's meat is mainly by-product (not fit for human consumption), as well as digest (meat from dead, diseased, dying, and disabled animals).

That depends on your version of "good." Beneful, and virtually all other dog foods sold in stores have enough nutrition to keep your dog healthy. They don't all have superior nutrition though. Your vet can recommend the best food for your dog, your breeder is also a great resource if you got the dog from a breeder.

Beneful is not a good food. Read the ingredients on the bag. Any food that lists corn in the first five ingredients is not a quality food. Beneful has two of the first three as corn. Corn is a cheap filler that offers no nutritional value. It also is not a good source of meat. By products are not.

Beneful is among the better dog foods. It is basically a generic dog food pumped full of a few more nutrients though. The best dog foods are ones from a natural dog supply store.

No. The first ingredient in Beneful is ground yellow corn, which means the food is mostly corn Dogs don't need corn at all, so this is NOT a good food.
