狗狗過肥易短命

Dogs that are too obese may have a short life

Most dry pet food on the market contains at least 40-50% carbohydrates, including plant starches such as corn and wheat that are difficult for furry children to digest. A large amount of carbohydrates is the main cause of obesity. A high-protein, low-carbohydrate formula is more effective in controlling weight.

Even in some dog food that advertises as Grain Free, the meat source is a hodgepodge of dead carrion, and even contains inedible meat by-products. TailorMeat urges parents to think carefully before choosing food for their furry babies.

Being too fat can lead to a short life

The UK's RSPCA states: "Pets that are overweight can cause serious health problems, such as diabetes, heart disease, respiratory problems, high blood pressure and cancer, and can worsen existing problems, thus shortening the lifespan and quality of pets."

Most of the nutrients in dry food are carbohydrates, but dogs are carnivores and should absorb protein and fat. It is very difficult for dogs to convert carbohydrates into their energy, so it is only excess nutrition for dogs. , and will make them overweight.

So if your dog is overweight, you should consider helping your owner switch to grain-free, low-carb raw meat and bone food!
