You drink your water. You choose protein bars over chocolate bars. You make sure your kids eat their veggies every night. Basically, you do your best to keep yourself—and your family—healthy. And while you deserve more than a pat or two on the back for that (it’s no small feat, after all!), there’s another member of the fam who needs a spot on the healthy eating bandwagon, too: your pup. The food your puppy or dog eats is so important for their overall health, it’s understandable why you’d be putting in a lot of research to figure out the best food options for them.

Wag Dry Dog Food, 35% Protein, No Added Grains (Beef, Salmon, Turkey, Lamb)

If you’re into saving money (and what mom isn’t?!), you’ll love this dog food from Wag, which is Amazon’s own line of pet products. One of the big perks is its “subscribe and save” option, where you’ll save up to 10% if you order bulk dog food to be delivered every week or month (and you’ll even get 40% off your first order as a bonus!). As far as the ingredients go, most Amazon reviewers are super happy with the quality. One wrote, “We are a bag in and no adverse reactions. I have a 10 year old boxer with a very sensitive stomach so I was really worried about switching him. I compared all of the ingredients of Wag to what I was feeding and the comparison held up, plus, Wag doesn’t have a couple of questionable ingredients that the other food had (that affects kidney function). After the initial change over, the boxer has not had any stomach issues or excess gas, which was a problem with other foods.” With real Australian lamb as the main ingredient (plus a mix of vegetables like lentils and peas, extra supplements like vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytonutrients; salmon oil and flaxseed provide omega-3 fatty acids, including long-chain DHA) your doggo will reap the benefits of this nutritious kibble and love every bite of it. If you’re wondering where the heck the food is made (you’re a mom, and that is your job!) know that Wag’s food is made in California at a family-owned facility that prioritizesquality ingredients over profit, so rest assured your pup is getting the best of the best. Plus, vets have given Wag their input, so your pup’s health is always, always at the top of mind when formulating kibble. **PSA: You can save 40% on Wag dry dog food (5 lb) trial size bags until 8/31 and 40% off your first order of Wag dog food or treats until 9/30.**
