11 Health Issues That Dog Owners Need To Be Aware Of (Excluding Common Skin Issues And Obesity)
Like every living being, getting sick and facing health issues is part and parcel of life or growing old. We would then watch our and
Here are 4 common mistakes that are triggering most of the skin issues and allergies in dogs:
- Feeding your dog dry foods with many fillers like flour, rice, corn, wheat, potatoes and starch.
- Using pet food with many preservatives, colouring, artificial flavours and many added chemicals.
- Giving leftovers, or cooking food for them with a lot of carbs (rice, potatoes, bread, etc)
- Using low quality ingredients (especially cheap meats, with a lot of antibiotics)
Why is that?
Dogs evolved from wolves and their digestive system is unable to process effectively all the carbs inside those fillers.
That’s why their digestive system is overloaded and as a consequence:
- Dogs are itching more
- Losing more fur
- Having red (or sometimes black) patches in the skin
- Triggering unnecessary allergies
And those are just early signs of bigger health issues that could happen to your dog if you keep feeding him/her the wrong food.
Things such as kidney failure, diabetes, heart problems, overweight and blindness are common health issues that happen to dogs as they grow older, and can be prevented with the right food.
So, before you start looking for medicine, treatments or creams to improve your dog's condition, go and check the ingredients inside their food.
If you happen to find the current food has any of the fillers, to many artificial ingredients or weird "meats" then you should consider to adjust their food diet.
