Nutrition
What we feed our dogs can have a huge effect on their general health and behaviour, and many will steal food at any given opportunity!
A dog's diet should contain 80% meat and 20% bone.
WHAT WE FEED OUR DOGS CAN BE CAUSING ALLERGIES
BENEFITS OF FEEDING RAW FOOD
Symptoms can include:
-
Itchy Skin
-
Weeping Eyes
-
Ear Infections
-
Overall Behaviour
-
Feet Biting
Not all dogs suffer from allergies, if however, your dog has suddenly started to experience any of the above symptoms check to make sure you have not used a different shampoo or other product.
Maybe you have just changed their food to another brand or have given them a different brand of chews.
It is worth checking as this could save you money when visiting a vet who may be treating the problem but not the cause.
I know from experience as this happened with one of my own dogs before I gained my Level 4 qualification in Dog Nutrition.
