Nutrition

It is crucial to pay careful attention to a dog´s nutrition from puppyhood. While dogs enjoy constant movement, they may accumulate excess fat with a more sedentary lifestyle, especially after being sterilized. Therefore, opting for the best available dry foods on the market is advisable.

Dogs adapt easily to a variety of foods, with numerous product options designed for them, including dry kibble and wet food.

For homemade meals, it´s useful to diversify between meat and fish, with meat remaining their preference. Balancing proteins with an appropriate percentage of starch and fresh vegetables is essential. Additionally, supplementing with minerals and trace elements is crucial. In this context, advice from a veterinarian specialized in nutrition is of utmost importance. It should be remembered that what may seem harmless and healthy to us could be harmful or even toxic to dogs.

Consulting a veterinarian is advisable to determine appropriate portions, or seeking a veterinary nutrition expert ensures a proper balance of essential nutrients. In any case, it is advisable to maintain two meals a day, as recommended.
