Dog Nutrition - Choosing the Best Food for Your Dog


On the market, there are many types of dog food, but not all of them are appropriate for your dog. We will discuss next about types of food, the importance of it for your dog. 

First, it is of huge importance that you make a schedule for your dog’s meals and do not let the dog eat for longer than 10 minutes. If more than ten minutes pass since your dog started to eat, you must take the boll away from it. Dogs do not have the same developed taste as humans, which is why you can never say about a dog that it “enjoys” the meal. Dogs are greedy when it comes to eating and it will eat as much as you feed him, until eventually, it gets sick. If the dog has food in the boll all the time, and the boll is at the dog’s discretion, the dog will become very selective about the food, and will stop eating what you offer.

You must accommodate your dog with a certain type of feeding and to the fact that the owner has the right to get the food away from it anytime the owner wishes to, and the dog must not make any comments on that. If this training will be frequent ever since the first weeks of life, you will prevent maturity problems, you might experience with the dog if you do not. Ask yourself the following question: if you get your hand into the dog’s food while the dog is eating, what will the dog do, how will it react? Whether your answer is positive, it is all right! If your answer is ‘well…the dog will bark and protest, or even bite me’, that means you have a problem, Not a problem without solution though, but your will have to contact a behavior specialist in order to correct your dog’s reactions.   

* This information is brief. The best thing you could do is to feed your dog according to the vet’s recommendations or you can follow the directions on food’s boxes and labels. 

A well balanced diet is essential to your dog. Fortunately, well known dog food producers take good care in establishing a balance between proteins, essential oils, fiber, vitamins and minerals and all the other elements that their food contains, before selling...

On the other hand, producers also sped lots of money in trying to persuade through commercials, that their product is the best, the healthiest and the more profitable on the market. In reality, the difference between the cheap and most expensive products is very small; the truth is that producers rely on the dog’s behavior issues when they start selling a product. 

You must take into consideration the following:

When you buy food for your dog, do you seek for the best good-looking wrapping for the food? Do you choose it because it smells better than others do? Those are exactly the expensive products are based on, if you choose them by those criteria, that means you follow their lead systematically.

The basic idea is you prefer a particular label….Your dog does not care at all about all these details. For your dog, food and full belly means happiness.

It is definitely not wrong to choose a product that fit your preferences as long as that particular product is according to the dog’s necessities. On the open market though, there are various types of “specialized food” for different fields. You can find food for working dogs; food for pregnant female dogs, food for mother dogs, food for old dogs, etc. there also is dry food or semi dry food.

Food in a can
