How to keep your puppy healthy naturally
Keeping your puppy healthy can be a mine field with the variety of products being advertised as ways to keep your puppy healthy.
Animal care in general is big business. However pet owners are taking more of an interest in natural products. Each puppy starting out on his or her life can benefit from a good diet consisting of fruit, vegetables, meat and whole grains.
The portion of food allocated at mealtimes for a puppy will depend on the size of the breed, taking into account if it is a working or an active dog.
A balanced diet from a young age will see that the puppy’s joints, muscles and teeth are kept in good health. The major organs of a puppy will work more efficiently to reduce any unwanted toxins and give freedom of movement.
