The Complete Pet Nutrition blog is home to practical pet food articles and everyday guidance for life with cats and dogs. This is where we share real tips that help you understand what goes into the bowl, what your pet needs at each life stage, and how small feeding habits make a big difference.
Our collection of pet food articles covers everything from reading labels to portion control, weight management, switching diets and choosing between different types of pet food. These blogs link naturally to our wider education content, where you can explore topics like ingredients, digestibility and safe transitioning in more detail.
Not every article is strictly about food. Many cover behaviour, enrichment, training, seasonal care and vet-backed wellbeing advice, because good nutrition works best alongside a healthy routine.
This library of pet food articles is designed to help you make confident, informed choices. For more guidance, explore our Products pages, visit the Education section, or read why Complete is often recommended by vets.

Pet owners often associate health problems in dogs with their specific breed.
