A poor diet affects all aspects 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 meat meal as opposed to meat 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.
- Salmon oil is 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.
