Balancing Your Puppy’s Dog Nutrition

It is the day you and your family have been eagerly looking forward to, your new puppy is on its way to your home. It is difficult to describe the sense of anticipation you all have- it’s a bit like the morning of the FA Cup final, when your team has somehow managed to struggle through the earlier rounds.

On arrival, your puppy dog starts to sniff around, making himself at home. Running around madly, or maybe I mean hopping and stopping.

This bundle of fun will soon become more interested in food. Dog nutrition for a puppy has to be quality food that can take over from your puppy’s mother's milk.

When he was born dog nutrition was not in question as your puppy’s mother’s milk provided him and his brothers and sisters with the nutrition and antibodies required to have good dog health.

Your puppy dog will have started to eat a little solid food before leaving his mother.

Once you have brought your puppy dog home, it is your responsibility to ensure he has quality dog food for a high standard of dog nutrition.

At this stage in a puppy’s life, giving your pet dog quality food will ensure he has the best dog health possible in the years to come.

A puppy dog requires dog food that manufacturers have produced with a �puppy’ in mind. Dog food for a puppy will have the essential ingredients to help a puppy grow quickly with the necessary strong bones and muscles. The ingredients are balanced out correctly with the extra vitamins and minerals required for good future dog health.

At Hills Pets UK, we have an unrivalled stock of quality dog food that offers dog nutrition at all stages of a dog’s life: including puppy dog food, adult dog food and dog food for a senior dog.
