Pug Nutrition Equals A Happy Dog

by Jenny Donaldson

If you have just brought home a Pug puppy and are wondering about Pug care then you have probably thought about how to deal with Pug nutrition. What is the best food to feed your dog and what vitamins and supplements should you feed your dog? Your vet may have recommended a pet food brand or you may have already bought a can of dog food that will take care of Pug nutrition.

When you make your own food you are taking Pug care to the highest level. You will find that your dog will be healthier than other dogs that eat commercial dog food. Your dog will not be prone to allergies and will generally be a much happier dog. Making your own dog food could actually work out to be cheaper than buying it. It is also very easy so there should really be no excuse for giving your dog the best Pug nutrition there is.

Making dog food at home is easy once you realize that many of the foods that are good for your dog are foods that you eat and that your family eat. Pug nutrition is no different from the nutrition required by children and adults.

Put this in a casserole dish with one finely chopped carrot, one finely chopped small potato, a finely chopped stick of celery and a half-cup sliced green beans. Cover this with water and mix it all up. Stick it in the microwave for ten minutes on high and then ten minutes on medium.

You probably know that some things should never be included in Pug nutrition. Some of these foods include chocolate, caffeine, raw fish, sugary foods and dairy products. Onions are an absolute no and should never be fed to dogs. Garlic is less toxic than onions to dogs but should be cooked and given occasionally. Be cautious when feeding your dog natural foods if previously your dog has been eating commercial dog food.

In this case you want to let your dog get used to eating natural foods. Feed the same Pug dog food recipes to your dog over a course of a week. Then slowly add variety by maybe substituting a few of the vegetables and then the type of meat. Different dogs may have a preference for different meats so start slow and
