Very few people don’t own
pets for some reason or another. Families with pets especially dogs, beside
owning a wonderful loving animal, they also feel the warmth of love and
devotion given by those wonderful animals.
Families with dogs, are
always anxious about their dogs health. There are breads that face no or very
little health problems, on the other hand there are other breads who suffer
from allergy and other health issues, that is why dog owners care about giving
the best healthy food to their dogs whether it’s a home made food , dry or
canned food.
Healthy food is being the
most important factor, for your dog to have a healthy and lively partnership
with their owners. Some tend to believe that giving their dogs canned or dry food is better for them and their health. This could be true as these foods may
contain supplements which are essential to the dogs’s health. This doesn’t deny
the fact that home made food is very important and beneficial for dogs.
Before starting to give your
dog home made food make sure it has variety, not give your dog the same food
every day for a long time, because it can cause your dog to develop an allergy.
You can feed your dog food like liver, meat, chicken, fish, eggs, vegetables.I read a book about home made food recipes for your dog offering more than 50 safe recipes and treats according to your dog type and size, the book name is The Healthy Dog Cookbook and another book Healthy Dog Food by John Miller sharing his 50 years of experience with dogs, giving you easy and inexpensive recipes to make.
When making home made food
for your dog make sure it includes calcium either by giving your dog edible
bones or adding specific amounts of calcium supplements to the food. Different
kinds of home made diets can be provided which could include raw and cooked
diets. Raw whole meaty bones or ground raw bones are extremely beneficial to
your dog.
Each dog is an individual so
it’s hard sometimes to exactly know and provide all the nutritional facts that
are the right one. Sometimes, dogs with health problems which need special care
, a home made diet may help to improve these problems. Dogs suffering from
seizure, IBD, and other digestive disorders, also skin infections as well as
chronic ear infections, also arthiritis
can benefit from home made food which can reduce these illnesses, and
sometimes disappear.
Canned and preserved food can
cause such disorders, sometimes caused by poor ingredients, hormones and other
chemicals. This could increase allergy in dogs. Also it is unadvisable to give
dogs huge quantity of carbohydrates. It is found greatly in dry food. Home made
food with low starch and little or no grains can enhance the dog’s health and
immunity system. But if you don’t have the time to make food for your dog or
you are afraid your dog isn’t getting all the supplements it should get in it’s
diet then good commercial diets are better and healthier to provide your dog
than a poorly home made one.
A well Balanced diet of home
made food, with some or little canned and dry food will never harm your dog.
That way you would be sure your dog is getting all the healthy supplements it
needs in their daily diet.
