Just-coated Griffon dogs Notice Griffon (definite introduction)
Puppies require twice as much calories as adult dogs for growth and development. Compared to humans, the life of a dog is particularly short. The newly furred Notice Griffon Dogs are no different. Dogs develop very quickly, and the process from puppy to adult dog takes only about a year, depending on the breed and size of the dog. This period of growth is very important and may even determine the puppy's life. In order for the puppy to grow healthily and luxuriantly, special attention should be paid to its diet during its development.
From weaning to the third month, feeding times should be set at 7 a.m., 12 p.m., 5 p.m. and 10 p.m., 4 times a day. From the 5th to 8th month of life, puppies can be fed three times in the morning, noon, and evening. During this period, the amount of food given to puppies is approximately one-third to half of that of adult dogs.
In the months from 2-3 months after weaning to within 3 months, the puppy’s food formation will determine its lifelong eating habits. If you plan to continue to feed your dog with special dog food in the future, you must adapt it to the taste of special dog food during this period of time.
If you plan to raise them with family meals in the future, the food should be mainly animal protein and feed more high-calorie foods. When puppies are 2-3 months old, the meat should be cut into fine pieces before feeding them because their teeth and lower jaw have not yet fully developed. Goat milk, butter, canned milk, etc. are also suitable. But don’t give them hard bones yet.
The period from 6 months to 1 year old is roughly equivalent to ten years of human life, so a dog can develop into a young dog equivalent to an 18-year-old in one year. This period is the period when the dog grows most vigorously, and the calories consumed are about twice the amount of growth. You may want to feed more animal protein foods.
What should I do if my dog is not used to hard, specialized dog food? Most puppies can eat hard, specialized dog food when they are about 2 months old. If puppies still can't get used to eating, you might as well soak it in boiling water or soup before feeding it to them.
How to judge whether the feeding amount is appropriate? Each dog's food intake is not completely normal. You can feed a little more at the beginning, and then judge whether the feeding amount is too much based on the amount of leftover food. You may wish to gradually reduce the amount of food as the puppies grow up. The amount of feeding should be based on the puppy's eating situation, about once every 3 weeks.
How to feed high-calorie meat foodsIn order to meet the needs of rapid development during puppyhood, it must eat as much high-calorie food as possible. However, if you consume too much fat, it can easily damage the digestive organs. Therefore, you may wish to remove part of the fat from the meat before feeding it, or you may wish to feed less fat-rich foods such as minced meat.
