NUTRITION TIPS

  • A poor diet affects all aspect's of your dog's life including his skin, coat, and even his behavior. Make sure you feed your dog a quality, premium food.
     
  • When choosing a food, read the label.  Familiarize yourself with ingredients.
     
  • Choose a food that uses chicken or lamb meal as opposed to chicken or lamb by-products.
     
  • Foods are usually made with a corn or rice grain source. Corn can be difficult for some dogs to digest.  Try a food with rice or even oatmeal as the grain source.
     
  • Foods preserved with ethoxyquin, BHA or BHT have been linked to cancer.
     
  • A food preserved naturally with Vitamin E or tocopherols is a better choice.
     
  • Garlic is a great herb to add to your dog’s diet. It is a natural antibiotic and flea and tick repellant.
     
  • Cod liver oil is also great to add to your dog’s diet. It provides essential Omega fatty acids.
     
  • Supplement your dog’s food with a vitamin and mineral mix.
