Weight loss tips for your pets

Eventhough chubby Dogs in Dubai can often prove quite cute, your pet's health and fitness is not something that should not be taken lightly. A pet's obesity can lead to serious health conditions and diseases such as kidney disease and diabetes, and can also reduce the life expectancy of a dog.

Its easy and simple to figure out how much your pet needs to eat. Most pet foods at the Pet Store in Dubai are labelled to show how many cups of food your pet should be eating at your pet's weight. The following is a breakdown of the required calorie intake for pets of different sizes,

Daily calorie need

• 10Ib. Cat - 275 calories

• 10lb.Dog - 300 calories

• 20lb. Dog - 500 calories

• 50lb.Dog - 1,200 calories

The range of foods that a pet can eat is much more limited than in comparison to the range of food that are available to humans. For instance, sharing a bar of chocolate with your dog would not be such a good idea. So this leaves you wondering, how can you determine what the best diet is for your pet? If you are not sure about your pet food selection or you think that your pet may have a special dietary requirement, then consult with the veterinarian and have all your questions answered, especially for owners who have Puppies in Dubai and need to know how much food to feed the pups.

Here are some tips to help you understand what your pet dog needs in their diets,

Dogs are omnivorous, so they can eat meat, grains and vegetables. High quality dog food will have the right balance of each of these food groups. Most dogs can digest all three of these food types, they require them in very specific amounts which can vary depending on the dog’s breed. You can also choose to feed your dog between either dry food or wet food.

Some pet owners will use treats as a rewarding mechanism for pets for good behavior to motivate and train the animal. However, there is such a thing as "too much of a good thing". Therefore, make sure to keep your pet's weight in check all the time and curb those treats that you use to reward your pet. There are low calorie treats that you can give your pet, and this is a really good option to keep your pet's weight under control.

If you feel that your pet is overweight its best to switch over to supplements or food that will help manage the pet's weight. A pet's diet and supplement changes should always be checked with the veterinarian first, before making any drastic improvements, but selecting a high-fiber food formula that can help ease your pet into a healthier lifestyle. Transitioning a pet to a healthy food formula can be easy if it's made more palatable, with a supplement that tastes good. In addition to supplements, you should also make sure to exercise your pet daily with a walk and opportunities to explore the environment and play, explains Dog Breeders in Dubai.
