The latest guide covers all the components of a healthy, balanced dog diet, including sections on protein sources, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and water requirements, along with advice about different nutritional needs of dogs at various stages of life.
A study published in Veterinary Research Communications highlights the fact that, although the dog food industry is worth billions, many commercial dog foods fail to meet basic nutritional standards and do not contain a properly balanced ratio of ingredients for optimal canine health. With guidance from Dog Insider, pet owners can learn what the ideal components of a healthy diet should be for different phases of a dog’s development and will be able to make more informed choices about purchasing dog foods and treats.
“Commercial dog foods offer convenience, however, it’s important to ensure they meet all the requirements for dogs in different stages of life,” says a spokesperson for the organization. “When considering what type of food to give your pup, consider their age, activity level, weight, and other factors, such as allergies or health concerns.”
The guide emphasizes the significance of a dog’s age, noting the nutritional needs of puppies are different from those of senior dogs, as young pups need higher levels of protein and fat, while older pets require more fiber, but fewer calories.
Readers will also learn how vitamins and essential minerals are important for optimal dog health, and why size matters, with a discussion of different nutritional needs of large and small breeds.
For those who have the time and resources, the guide also gives tips for making a balanced, nutritional dog meal from scratch at home, such as how to include omega-3 fatty acids and source quality ingredients.
The guide finishes with a list of answers to frequently asked questions about canine nutrition, covering topics such as feeding frequency, benefits of grain-free food, signs and symptoms of malnutrition in dogs, healthy treat options, and guidance on portion sizes.
