feeding guide for golden retriever puppy: Canine Nutrition William D. Cusick, 1997 Today's dog food industry is producing hundreds of dog food formulas for the market. This industry has also tested many different breeds of dogs for their nutritional requirements. Results of this testing were published in 1985, showing such a wide range of nutritional requirements that we now know one food cannot be correct for all dogs. Yet, to date, no one from any of the dog food companies has come forward to tell us which breeds might react adversely to their food. This has left most dog food buyers in the position of having to experiment at home in order to find the best food for their dog. Too often this type of experimenting has had disastrous results. But now the dog food buyer has a tool...this book can help all dog owners match their dog to the right food. Recommendations in this book are made by the nutrient sources found in most commercial dog food formulas, and not by brand name or with any bias or brand loyalty. |

feeding guide for golden retriever puppy: The Forever Dog Rodney Habib, Karen Shaw Becker, 2024-09-10 #1 New York Times Bestseller In this pathbreaking guide, two of the world's most popular and trusted pet care advocates reveal new science to teach us how to delay aging and provide a long, happy, healthy life for our canine companions. Like their human counterparts, dogs have been getting sicker and dying prematurely over the past few decades. Why? Scientists are beginning to understand that the chronic diseases afflicting humans--cancer, obesity, diabetes, organ degeneration, and autoimmune disorders--also beset canines. As a result, our beloved companions are vexed with preventable health problems throughout much of their lives and suffer shorter life spans. Because our pets can't make health and lifestyle decisions for themselves, it's up to pet parents to make smart, science-backed choices for lasting vitality and health. The Forever Dog gives us the practical, proven tools to protect our loyal four-legged companions. Rodney Habib and Karen Becker, DVM, globetrotted (pre-pandemic) to galvanize the best wisdom from top geneticists, microbiologists, and longevity researchers; they also interviewed people whose dogs have lived into their 20s and even 30s. The result is this unprecedented and comprehensive guide, filled with surprising information, invaluable advice, and inspiring stories about dogs and the people who love them. The Forever Dog prescriptive plan focuses on diet and nutrition, movement, environmental exposures, and stress reduction, and can be tailored to the genetic predisposition of particular breeds or mixes. The authors discuss various types of food--including what the commercial manufacturers don't want us to know--and offer recipes, easy solutions, and tips for making sure our dogs obtain the nutrients they need. Habib and Dr. Becker also explore how external factors we often don't think about can greatly affect a dog's overall health and wellbeing, from everyday insults to the body and its physiology, to the role our own lifestyles and our vets' choices play. Indeed, the health equation works both ways and can travel up the leash. Medical breakthroughs have expanded our choices for canine health--if you know what they are. This definitive dog-care guide empowers us with the knowledge we need to make wise choices, and to keep our dogs healthy and happy for years to come. |
