Your Dog Will Thank You If You Read These Doggie Diet Tips

Author : NS Kennedy

Although it was once common practice to feed dogs whatever
scrapes came from the dinner table, today we realize that there
is much more to feeding an animal than we thought. It is
important to give them foods that will provide them with a
healthy life and a long one too. In fact, there are a number of
researchers who dedicate their lives to understanding just what
your pet should and shouldn't eat. You can bank on what they
have found that should be in your dog's diet.

It is important to provide your animal with the right type of
food. That means that you should give her food that is right for
the dog's age and activity levels and that is right for her size
as well as her health. You'll find a wide selection of products
to choose from in your pet store. It is wise to purchase the
best quality of food for your pet that you can afford to buy.
Realize that if you purchase poor quality food for your animal,
his health can be lacking.

Your pet's diet should include some dry food because the crunch
will help to keep her teeth clean and it will also help with gum
health. It provides the fiber in your dog's diet that is
necessary. You can use wet food, but don't give them too much of
it. For example, pour some over your dog's dry food instead of
giving them the whole can. If you are interested in providing
your pet with home made foods, find dog specific recipes
throughout the web to use. It is important not to give your dog
leftovers from your meal though. You need the food to provide
nutrition to your dog based on his needs. Things like fats, and
fillers in human food, as well as spices, can make a dog sick.
As a puppy, your dog needs to eat frequently throughout the day,
about three or four smaller meals, until they are about three
months old. Then, cut it down to only three meals a day for the
next three months. Ideally, your adult dog should each twice per
day. You should provide your dog's food to them for up to twenty
minutes. At that point remove it if they have not eaten it and
are not in the process of doing so. This will help to stop picky
eaters. You do need to provide a constant amount of clean water
for your pet to drink as well.

Ideally, you will need to get recommendations about the amounts
of food to feed your dog from your vet. Sometimes, information
is also available on the food bags as well. Not sure if your pet
is eating the right amount? Here's a test. If you run your hand
against the dog's side, you should feel her ribs without
pressing. If you can not feel them without pressing, she may be
overweight. If you can see them, though, she is underweight.
