What should I do if a puppy eats too much? Dogs have a very poor self-discipline in food, especially when they encounter food they want to eat, which is particularly greedy. It takes a process for the dog to transmit the fullness of the stomach to the middle of the brain. When the dog eats quickly, the stomach is already "saturated", but the dog does not feel full at this time. When it feels full, its stomach is already "overloaded". Excessive food will form a large clump in the stomach, which cannot be vomited or discharged. The expanded food will break the stomach wall and cause danger. Remember not to feed your dog too much, and you should not let your dog eat freely without restraint.
So how much should a dog eat? To be precise, there is no unified standard. Therefore, it must be determined through the owner's careful observation. If the dog is still anxious, unhappy after dinner, and circling around you, it means that you may not have enough food. If the dog looks very satisfied after eating, and wipes his face by himself, shakes his head and tail to the side to rest or play, it means that it is full. In addition, if the dog hides food, it means that there is already an oversupply of food and the owner needs to pay attention. The feeding amount on general dog food packaging bags is the best reference.
Among the diseases that puppies suffer from, digestive system diseases have always been the first priority, which is often related to people's excessive spoiling and inability to feed them scientifically. In fact, dogs all accept their love for them happily, but sometimes it is the owner's love that harms them. Therefore, for the sake of dog health, it is really necessary for owners to learn more about scientific feeding.
What should I do if a dog doesn't eat dog food?
1. Regular and regular and quantitative, do not spoil
Dogs don't eat, but in fact, it is often the dogs compete with the shovelers for patience. Many puppies are very smart. They find that as soon as they refuse to eat, the shovelers who love it will keep bringing delicious food. Once your dog finds this works, you're done: your dog will keep threatening you with refusal to eat. So what should we do?
You can try the following method: use 3 days as a cycle, first of all, first of all, give the dog only clean water during this day, don’t feel heartbroken, give it a little dog food at noon the next day so that it can just eat 4-5 minutes full. OK, then be hungry, wait for it to eat at noon on the third day. If you don’t eat it, continue to take it away. Return to normal on the 4th day.
If the round is OK, that's great. If it doesn't work, let the dog slow down for a few days first, and then another round. After several trainings like this, you can see that your dog will definitely be stronger than you did every day after a month, and you will not be so tired.
2. Don’t give your dog snacks randomly
The better dog food now has very complete nutritional formulas. Dear poop shovelers, don’t worry about dogs being malnourished, and add extra meals and nutrition to their dogs. Various canned meat and delicious chicken snacks are delicious, but eating too much of this type of snack will have two adverse consequences: 1. Nutrition is prone to imbalance; 2. Delicious canned meat can make the dog's taste tricky, and from then on, dogs will no longer like dog food.
3. You cannot give your dog too much
If a dog starts to pick on food, the shoveler should not feed the dog too much, usually just 8 points full. It is better for a dog to be a little hungry than to be full. Don't worry, dogs are very hungry. Relevant personnel have conducted tests and dogs with 8 points full lifespan is 1.5 times longer than dogs with 10% full. So it doesn’t matter if your dog always keeps a little hungry, so that the dog will always like to eat dog food.
4. You can change different dog foods
Eat one type of dog food all year round, but in fact, dogs are also easily tired of eating them. If a dog eats one type of dog food for a long time and becomes greasy, the shoveler can change the dog's food to different dog foods. This will not only increase the dog's appetite, but also help balance nutrition. But here I would like to remind everyone: Do not replace dog food too frequently, usually only replace it once every six months or once a year.
