Italian Greyhound (definite introduction)
Friends who are concerned about pets may often see this. According to some reports, some dogs have become skinny and skinny over a long period of time because they were abandoned and deprived of food. There may be well-intentioned people who will raise them after seeing this situation, but we should pay attention to the methods when raising this kind of dogs. Next, we will talk about how to raise excessively hungry dogs.
Giving it a high-quality, nutritionally balanced dog food is the first step to help it wake up. This means that there should be sufficient weight and quality of protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals in the dog's food to meet its metabolic needs.
It is worth noting that there are two types of dog food, one is nutritionally complete dog food, and the other is prescription dog food that specifically supplements certain nutrients. Prescription dog food must be fed in conjunction with other foods so that the ration can meet the nutritional needs of the dog. Nutritionally complete dog food does not require supplementation, it is already a balanced ration. Therefore, when choosing dog food, you should read the nutritional label of the product carefully.
There is another misunderstanding here. Many people believe that for an extremely hungry dog, simple food may not be able to meet the dog’s physical needs. Therefore, they feed them more prescription food. An authoritative veterinarian article pointed out that the key is to feed dogs more basic food instead of supplementing special nutrients. Even though he is very hungry, he is a strong dog.
Since food already contains many basic nutrients, overcompensation will only exceed the dog’s daily needs, which is undoubtedly harmful. For example, too much vitamin D can cause calcium to accumulate in the kidneys, and too many carbohydrates can cause digestive problems like lactose intolerance. Therefore, some simple food and pure water are enough.
Therefore, when feeding dogs that have not eaten for a long time, we cannot feed them a lot at once, and it is best to feed them some porridge at the beginning and wait for a while. Then gradually replace it with dog food.
