Doggie nutrition

Have you got a pooch? 

Dogs need a balanced diet too.  I see so much processed dog food in the shops from, dried food, tinned food, poor ingredient and can’t help thinking that we can do better for our pooches.

I got researching and found that they need 80% meat and 20% other veg/carb and fruit.  This is due to their short colon. My pooch is now on a raw food diet, with extras like blueberries, cucumber, broccoli, carrots, sweet potato and egg shells, tinned sardines in water. I give them in different dishes, she then chooses which one to eat first.  Apparently this helps with confidence and helps with trust. Win!

Of course I would be interested in their nutrition, so what about their guts. A diet that offers these elements will support gut health, but we can go further by introducing a probiotic.

I have been using this one by Good Health Naturally:  Prescript Biotics 90’s – Probiotic suitable for us the our pooches

Friendly micro-organisms that help to support the gut and create a healthy balance in the microbiome, including humic and vulvic acid from soil.   This is great choice for your pooch and easily opened and sprinkled onto food, perhaps use half a capsule per day. 

Prescript Biotics 90s is available on the Natural Dispensary with you personal discount code shout if you have lost yours.
