Dogs diet is not exactly like ours, even though when they see us eat, it seems that they would eat our plate greedily. What is healthy food for us might be not appropriate for them and sometimes even very dangerous.
Since dog’s metabolism works differently from ours, specific human food must be taken into account when feeding them, to avoid poisoning or other more serious problems.
What food is suitable for dogs and what should I avoid?
Today, there are feeds that are very suitable for our dogs, providing them with the vitamins and proteins necessary to be strong and healthy, with a wide variety of flavors and additives. There are also relatively new diets, such as the “barf diet” both raw or cooked, as well as other ways of feeding dogs with their pros and cons. Behind these personalized diet programs, there is a dog, with its tastes and needs, and we must adapt these diets to their metabolism. Failure to do so can seriously harm its health.
There are harmful food items for dogs, such as garlic and onions that, due to their chemical composition, can reduce red blood cells. Other harmful items such as avocado and other fruits, nuts, specific dairy products, sweets, ice cream, chocolates, various vegetables, and legumes, etc. There is an extensive list of other items, more or less easy to digest, raw or cooked, which are not advisable for them, depending on dog breed, weight and other parameters, that need expert assessment.
Make no mistake that our CHRIPI bars will help complement your dog’s diet, providing a great source of essential vitamins and proteins.
