There are many ways to keep your Beagles healthy. Feeding them nutritionally balanced foods is one way to keep them healthy and happy. So what are these nutritious foods? How am I going to make sure that my dog gets the necessary food essential for his health?
There are many issues regarding commercial dog foods, homemade dog foods, and natural dog foods. The use of commercial dog food is very common for most dog owners today. It’s for the simple reason that it’s available at most grocery and pet supply stores. All you have to do is buy a pack or two at your favorite pet supply store, open the pack and pour the contents into your dog’s food bowl. Is not easy? Feeding your Beagles is not that difficult after all.
But then, despite the convenience that this type of food offers, you can’t guarantee that your dog is getting the essential nutrients his body needs. Some brands of commercial dog food are recalled because they were found to contain preservatives. Dog food manufacturers claim that their products do not contain preservatives. But in reality, almost every commercial dog food on the market contains ethoxyquin. A powerful and toxic chemical that can cause kidney and liver damage, hair loss, blindness, leukemia, cancerous skin lesions, fetal abnormalities, and chronic diarrhea. Therefore, the condom-free dog food claim is one of the manufacturer’s advertising strategies to increase sales and profits.
That’s one of the reasons more dog owners are switching to natural, homemade dog food. With homemade dog food, you can be sure that your Beagles are getting not only healthy food but also safe food. The only concern with natural dog food is preparation. Dog owners, especially those who are busy and have many other things to do, find that preparing this food requires a lot of time and effort. Seek your vet’s advice before anything else. You can ask your vet for advice on how to prepare your dog’s food easily and correctly.
Being a good dog owner isn’t just about playing with your dog, praising him for every good behavior, or making him look good. A good dog owner ensures the general good condition of their pet. Always remember to read the product labels carefully. There are only a few safe products that you can give your dog. So be careful! Then learn how to make healthy dog food. Generally, the meal should contain 40% protein, 30% starch, and 30% fiber.
Give your Beagle the right kind of food and expect him to live healthier, longer and happier.
