The Association of American Feed Control Officials (or AAFCO) defines what goes on
dog food labels but some feel this is inadequate considering that the AAFCO is not
governed and includes people in the pet
food industry who benefit from certain guidelines.
Pet
food regulations are set by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO), which
governs the production, distribution and sale of cat
food,
dog food and animal feeds as well as pet
food labeling laws.
Even though AAFCO and CVM are currently the best
governing bodies for pet
food label evaluations as well as pet
food health and safety testing, their protocols are limited and their assessment alone can not be taken as the ultimate say for a specific
dog food brand's quality [9].

govern dog foods (and
dog food labels) and we'll also talk about the definitions for ingredients.
