White Rice

One of the most common types of rice used in dog food is brewer's rice, which is essentially small, broken, or "ugly" pieces of white rice that weren't quite pretty enough for human consumption.

Rice is rich in carbs, fibre, and minerals and helps give food more bulk, however, some lower-quality brands use excess amounts of rice in lieu of higher quality ingredients to save on costs so be sure to read the ingredients in your pup's food carefully.
