Keeping our dog at his ideal weight is an essential factor in avoiding health problems. If we overfeed our pet, it will get fat and be predisposed to suffer from joint disorders, diabetes or other pathologies.That is why it is important that we control the amount of feed you should eat each day. But how do we know what ration to give him? Let's look into the world of dog nutrition to find out how much our dog should eat.Correct nutrition is that which provides the dog with all the nutrients it needs in the right amount and enough energy to maintain its body functions (digestion, breathing, etc.) and carry out its daily activities.What nutrients does a dog need?There are 5 types of nutrients that are necessary for the proper functioning of a dog's body:• Proteins• Carbohydrates or sugars• Lipids or fats• Vitamins• MineralsWater is essential for life, however, it does not fall under the heading of nutrients.
What amount of nutrients does a dog need?
A dog should consume a minimum amount of each of these nutrients on a daily basis so that his nutritional needs are met. This amount is known as the RDI (Recommended Daily Intake).
The RDI is the level of intake of a nutrient that appears to be adequate to meet the nutritional needs of nearly all healthy dogs.
Pet food manufacturers formulate the feed in such a way that by eating the established ration on the package, the RDI of all the nutrients is ensured.
Feed that is labelled as "complete dog food" covers all the nutritional needs of the animal for which it is intended. So there is no need to supplement them with anything.
In addition, the labelling of feed should specify the type of dog for which it is intended, especially the age. There are puppy foods, adult foods and senior dog foods, and their composition is different because nutritional needs vary at each stage of life.
