Fruits And Veggies For Man's Best Friends

By George Dodson


Just about everyone loves animals. Not exclusive to just a few animals but all. In general, pets are those that attract our attention and affection the most. They provide companionship, as they are nonjudgmental and will accept you the way you are. Having to see people living with more than a few pets for long years is already ordinary. Some treat pets as member of their families and provide them with the same affection as what they would give to their children or relatives. Each of these pets are given names and sometimes each have their own individual personality.

We love our pets and want the best for them. For that reason veterinarians and animal hospitals have grown up around the need to care for and protect our pets. Additionally, videos and books about pet training, proper care for pets and other essential pet care tips also start to flourish in the market. Major store outlets such as pets mind exist to provide the pet lover with just about everything they need to keep their pets safe, healthy, and happy.

Pets are also like other animals, they tend to get hungry as well. It's important to understand that what is good for humans is not necessarily good for pets. They have their own specific needs and wants which usually depend on which animal classification they belong to. A good way to ensure your pets health as well as joy is to make certain that you are feeding them with the best pet food. Make sure your pet food contains necessary vitamins and minerals specifically prescribed for the classification of your pet. Fruits and vegetables are especially important, depending on the type of pet you own. What are the kinds of fruits and vegetables you should keep in mind when considering what to feed your dog?

Dogs in particular aren't that choosy as other pets with regards to the fruits and vegetables that they eat. Just as long as your dog is getting the right nutrients and chemicals from it. Also, it is important that the fruit and vegetable is rich with antioxidant which can help in the dogs detoxification. You need to check for yourself that the fruit or vegetable is free of any chemicals as well as other additives which can be harmful for dogs.

While we humans should consider eating both the fruits and the skins, animals do not have the enzymes to break down the cellulose walls. This is the reason why you need to make sure to prepare your dogs food thoroughly before giving it to them by skinning or peeling the fruit or vegetable.

One food that dogs love to nibble on is the carrot. They're rich in vitamins D and K as well as many the minerals necessary for a healthy dog.

Cantaloupe is especially good for dogs. When in season, make sure your dog has this fruit available. Just like other fruits it is also delivers important vitamins such as C and B6. Also, it is filled with fiber which is good for dogs digestion.

The old standby, spinach, is good for both man and dog. It's especially good for dogs. Just like a daily supplement it is filled with all the necessary vitamins and minerals that your dog needs. Spinach contains flavonoids and carotenoids which help ward off such problems as cancer.
