There are factors to consider when feeding your pet dog. Most pet food products come with a feeding guide so pet parents would have a general idea of how much to feed their dogs. However, a pet owner must be aware that the daily food consumption of his dog is influenced by other factors such as the dog’s age, physiological condition, build, and level of activity. Here are some tips to keep in mind when it comes to feeding your pet and meeting his nutritional needs:
- Reduce his food intake by 20-30% from his usual consumption when your pet appears to be having excess weight until he achieves the ideal weight.
- Add 10-20% more than his regular daily food consumption for a week or two or until he achieves the ideal weight if your pet seems to have a “ribby” side.
- To learn the ideal weight for your pet dog, consult your vet Marietta, GA. It will be also your guide in monitoring your pet’s weight.
