Dog Feeding FAQ
Dogs need a balanced diet which contains just the right amount of protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals to ensure that they stay in peak condition. These nutrients must be present, not only in the correct amounts, but also in the correct proportions to each other, in order to provide a nutritionally complete and balanced diet. Our research indicated that most homemade foods fed to dogs do not meet the recommended nutritional requirements. Prepared pet foods from reputable pet food manufacturers like PEDIGREE
Balanced diet is providing the right recipe based on age and bodyweight and right amount based on feeding guide recommendation.
Pet foods vary considerably in their quality and adequacy. There are many factors to consider during the selection dog foods. Some of the considerations include:
- Is the food complete and balanced?
- How palatable/digestible is the food?
- How much does it cost to feed?
- What is the reputation/credibility of the manufacturer?
- Do they have qualified and experienced experts and veterinary nutritionists?
- Do they have facilities to meet pet food standards?
- Are they easily approachable to get further information on pet food?
- But perhaps the most important consideration in selecting a pet food is its nutrient content, not just the level of nutrients but also the digestibility and availability of nutrients.
Dogs cannot tolerate too much milk in their diet. A dog weighing 7 kgs. can tolerate up to 250 ml of milk and anything in excess can lead to loose stools.
