How to calculate the amount of natural feed?
The amount of food for the whole day is considered as follows:
Puppies under 6 months - 6% of the dog’s weight
Dogs from 6 months old - 3-4% of the dog’s weight
That is, if you have a two-year-old Jack Russell weighing 8 kg, he should be given 250-300 grams of food. But since this breed is known for its hyperactivity, the portion can be increased.
What should be in a dog’s diet?
If you feed, then nothing more is needed. Natural nutrition should contain about 40-50% meat, 30% dairy products and the rest is fiber. For example, it can be cottage cheese and kefir with bran in the morning and meat in the evening. Treat vegetables and fruits periodically.
Why can’t a dog be given pork?
It is generally believed that dogs should not be pork due to fat content. This is only partly true. Pork is longer digested, increases cholesterol and parasites are more common in it. Beef is more lean, yes, but not all of its parts. There is also a thick layer of fat in beef that can be in the dog’s bowl.
How can I feed a dog to be useful?
You can feed vegetables and unsweetened fruits. Cucumbers, apples, grated carrots, celery.
