Looking at the shelves in supermarkets, do you know what to look for when choosing dog food? SSPDaily has collected 3 tips that will help you buy a healthy product for your four-legged friend.
Consider the protein content
To meet the metabolic needs of small dogs, a higher proportion of protein is needed in the diet. Look for a food that contains at least 20% protein.
Choose small food sizes
Because of their small jaws and teeth, small dogs have an easier time chewing and digesting smaller pieces of food.
Check the food for premium ingredients
Look for high-quality ingredients in small breed food. Look for high-quality meat sources, such as chicken, beef, or fish.
