How To Train A Puppy Without Upsetting His Pet Diet

A good way to monitor dog nutrition while you are training your puppy is with small treats that have been previously prepared to encourage good behaviour.

When looking to start your puppy on a pet diet, use a limited amount of treats. Set a certain amount to one side for good behaviour, as this has been proven to help with the essential care of a dog’s teeth.

Just like humans, a puppy needs to be checked out regularly for tooth decay which can be caused by certain amounts of hidden sugar in food and treats.

A puppy can also have an allergic reaction to many food colourings. Some have a high level of milky and fatty products; each ingredient can be the cause of weight gain and other unfortunate reactions.

Special dog chocolate can contain too much sugar. The amount of sugar will be printed on the accompanying label, and this type of chocolate can be given on a pet diet.

When you feed your pet his special treats, add the amount you give him to his main meals.

Take time to apportion the size of your puppy's meals. Each meal should be given in small portions four times a day for about six months - then he can be fed two meals a day for the rest of his life as an adult dog.
