Frequently Asked Questions about Life's Abundance Dog Food
This page is NOT a substitute for medical advice.
Q.The
price of the food seems a little high, so how does Life's Abundance Dog
Food compare with other natural and typical store-bought brands. How can it be cheaper in the long run to feed Life's Abundance Dog Food over other popular commercial pet foods.
A. Since Life's Abundance Pet Food is so nutrient dense it takes less food to feed your pet.
Life's Abundance scores in the high 90's for digestibility and
palatability. Pet owners find fewer odors and stool clean up. When
feeding Life's Abundance Premium Dog Food you will be able to see the
difference in your pet's health, skin, coat, energy level, and quality
of life. It is very likely that your pet will experience less trips to
the vet with fewer vet bills.
Also consider checking out the Daily Cost Comparison
which compares other popular foods. For example, 40 lbs of Life's
Abundance dog food lasts 4 to 5 weeks when feeding two adult dogs
weighing 68 and 86 pounds each. Compare Life's Abundance to a 40-lb bag
of any popular commercial dog food, which used to last about 2 to 3
weeks. The same comparison holds true for Cat food.
Q.OK,
I'm almost convinced that feeding Life's Abundance is the best food I
can feed my pet, but please, I need to be 100% convinced. Can you help
me?
A. Sure! Consider this example:
You
decide to eat a balanced meal. You order a fast food hamburger, which
contains protein from meat, carbohydrates from bread and vegetables
from tomatoes. The three food groups. The next night your mom prepares
the same balanced meal but her hamburger is made with premium grade
sirloin meat, whole wheat bread and fresh garden tomatoes. While the
ingredient list for both dinners would read the same, obviously mom's
meal provides a higher level of nutrition.
Right
now, check the ingredients on the current food you are feeding. Would
you eat the food? If your answer is Probably NOT, then why feed it to
your pet? Life's Abundance is made of all natural, human-grade
ingredients which means that if Life's Abundance Dog Food was the ONLY
food you had left in your home, you could eat it. WOW! Can you say this
about the food you are presently feeding your pet?
Another important consideration is that all Life's Abundance products are formulated by highly respected and nationally-recognized holistic veterinarian, Dr Jane Bicks!
Dr. Jane hosts her very own product calls every Thursday evening, where
prospective customers and existing customers can ask ANY and ALL
questions, as it relates to the products, as well as the health of your
pet! Can you say this about the product line you are presently feeding?

Q.There is chicken meal in Life's Abundance - Isn't chicken better?
A.NO!
Chicken Meal is just the meat whereas just chicken can contain water,
fat, skin and bones. Chicken Meal is a pure meat source because the
water is drained and the rest is removed! In addition, make sure if
your pet food label reads chicken meal there aren't any by-products
(beaks, intestines, animal necks,feet, undeveloped egg etc,) in the
food.
Q.Why don't you have separate formulas for puppies and older dogs?
A.
If the food being fed is high quality and all natural, there is no need
to have separate formulas. Life's Abundance is formulated according to AAFCO's
guidelines of providing a 1:1 calcium/phosphorus ratio. A puppy will
eat more and a senior will eat less. Each dog receives the proper
calcium/phosphorus ratio, and it's nutritional needs are met, no matter
how much food or how little food a dog eats. Don't let commercial pet
food companies fool and confuse you with all their different age
formulas.
Q.I'm concerned about the food spoiling since it's made with all natural ingredients!
A.
When properly stored in a cool place away from moisture, Life's
Abundance can be stored for about 11 months. Although, the ideal period
is 5 to 6 months. After six months the product value may decline
quickly. This is because there are no harmful chemical preservatives
added to the food as found in most commercial foods. Natural foods
attract moisture - which can turn into mildew spoilage quickly in the
summer weather and areas of high humidity. Store pet food in a dry,
cool place.
Q.Why 26% Protein in the Dog Food?
A.
It is not the amount of protein in a dog food that is important, it is
the quality and type of protein and how easily it can be digested that
is important. Life's Abundance pet food is formulated with quality
protein and in the correct amount for all life stages. In some cases
such as working dogs or dogs under high stress, the addition of meat
protein can be considered.
Q.HELP! My dog is scratching like crazy?
A.
First of all, make sure your dog does not have fleas. You might
consider having your Vet check him/her because they can easily be
missed by the untrained eye. Second, your dog may be allergic to one or
more ingredients found in their current food. Many dogs are allergic to
wheat, corn, glutens and/or chicken, and may even be experiencing a
reaction to the by-products or another ingredient. Remember that
healthy skin, coats, eyes and even breath start from within first. Life's Abundance is free of by-products, corn, wheat and dairy!
Q. Are you products available in Canada or outside the US?
A. No - at this time we have not obtained authorization to sell our products outside the US.
Q.How much are your shipping charges?
A.
Shipping charges vary depending on how much you order and your
location. If you are buying food or products that you continually use
you may want to consider placing a larger order and order less
frequently to save on the shipping since shipping does not increase
much on large orders.
Medical Advice
We do not provide medical advice. The industry is blessed with many fine Vets
that truly care about animal health. However, regardless of
professional advice, it is up to each pet owner to read and understand
pet food labels.
Veterinary
schools do not require courses in nutrition. Consumers are electing to
no longer support manufacturers that have little regard for their pet's
health. Veterinarians are becoming more and more aware of this concern
and are starting to follow the national trend for a healthier
lifestyle. Much of the widely advertised dog foods contain by-products
and the remains from the human garbage chain with harmful chemical
additives. Please be careful what you feed your pet.
When you feed Life's Abundance Foods, you are feeding the very finest food available! 100% satisfaction, guaranteed!

Q.Can
I sell Life's Abundance products to offset my own pet food costs plus
generate an extra income while helping other pet owners feed their dogs
a healthy diet?
A.
Yes, having a Life's Abundance business is a very rewarding. You can work
with pet owners, shelters and rescue organizations. Life's Abundance
provides a web site free to shelters and rescues so they can earn money
without overhead. Organization supporters will want to purchase their
own pet's food from their favorite organization. This purchase helps
support the organization. There's even a discounted price on food for
breeders and kennels. Building an organization by sponsoring these and
other business-minded people will provide you not only with an income
but a great personal feeling of doing something good. Get more
information about the the Life's Abundance Business Opportunity..
Q. Can I sell Life's Abundance products online?
A. Yes! Life's Abundance will provide you with a web site for $10.95 a month and all orders from it will automatically be credited to your account.
Q. Is Life's Abundance sold through network marketing?
A.
Yes! Life's Abundance is based on referral marketing. The more people you
sponsor the more you can make. Some people are using the program simply
to earn enough money to pay for their own pet products by having a few
customers from friends and family. Others are producing significant
part-time incomes and still others have replaced full-time incomes.
This is not a "get rich fast" business. It's a real business that you
own and requires consistent effort over an extended period of time. The
products are consumable, so people tend to reorder (customer retention
is around 70 to 80 percent), allowing you to reap rewards long-term for
every customer gained. Click here for more information.
