In addition to daily exercise can enhance the dog's physique and ensure the dog's health, food is the most important part to maintain the dog's health. Reasonable arrangement of food can effectively regulate the dog's body, and the same unreasonable arrangement may lead to various problems such as malnutrition and indigestion in dogs. Moreover, after the dog is seriously ill, the correct diet is also the best way to regulate the dog's body, so many problems need to be paid attention to when using food to regulate the dog's body.
Although dogs are carnivores, it is unreasonable to feed them only with meat. When the ancestors of dogs eat prey, they eat not only muscles, but also bones, viscera and intestines, because they can get nutrients that are not found in eastern muscles to meet their own nutritional needs.
Feeding food can be ready-made or homemade:
Homemade: Actually, homemade food is far from as simple as we thought. If you make your own food, you need to know more about the specific nutritional needs of dogs, the nutritional value of different foods and the eating habits of dogs. And we are very particular about the preparation method and food storage. Because different processing methods of food will have an impact on its nutritional composition. It takes a lot of time, energy and professional knowledge to provide enough food for your dog.
Some dog owners like to prepare their own food for their dogs. If so, it is necessary to gradually add different foods to adapt the dog's digestive system to this new food. Moreover, different dogs have different nutritional needs, so it is difficult to make reasonable food without solid professional knowledge. If you rely on your own feelings, it is very likely that some nutrients are too rich or not enough.
Ready-made food: With the development of the pet industry, it is not difficult to buy special food for dogs. What we need to worry about is that there are too many kinds of dog food on the market to choose properly. Therefore, you should choose those reputable businesses to buy dog food. The pet food produced by reputable pet food manufacturers generally does not cut corners, and the nutritional elements are also sufficient, so the safety of the food should be guaranteed. Not only that, there are many kinds of food, and the owner has a certain choice.
Dogs have different nutritional needs, so we should pay attention to whether it is appropriate when choosing finished food.
There are two kinds of ready-made pet food-complete and supplementary. Complete food can provide a balanced diet, and complementary food should be used with other specific foods, such as canned biscuit mixture. The labels on the products will indicate the types of different foods.
There are usually three forms of pet food-dry, wet and semi-wet. Most of the water in dry food has been removed, which is economical and practical. Pets can eat it directly or add some water or gravy before feeding. Wet pet food (such as canned food) is most suitable for dogs without dehydration. The moisture content of semi-wet food is between the two.
However, if the amount of dry food is not well controlled when raising a dog for the first time, it is best to feed wet food. If you are not sure about the choice of food, don't make your own dog food, so as not to cause nutritional imbalance. You should also pay attention to the ingredients and control the quantity reasonably when choosing the finished dog food.
