Dog Food

I mentioned in a previous post about raw dog food and now I am going to talk about day to day dog food.

Your dog must have a well balanced diet that produces a well muscled, strong boned, healthy coated dog.

Your dog should have dog food that consists of meat which is a good source of protein and also provides fat which contains the essential fatty acids which is needed for a variety of body functions, which include good skin and coat condition.

So by feeding your dog good dog food you are keeping him a happy and healthy dog.

The rest of your dog's diet should include soluble and insoluble fibre. A good balanced diet will provide all of a dogs daily vitamin requirements.

It has been said that some dogs do like to eat grass and other vegetation.

Please note that grass, roots berries and uncooked vegetables are a poor source of nourishment and not good dog food. They can be very hard to digest. On the plus side they can provide roughage.
