What is the best food for small dogs?
Small Dog Nutritional Needs
When it comes to feeding your small dog, it’s crucial to consider the specific dietary requirements of smaller breeds. Unlike larger dogs, small dogs have faster metabolic rates, smaller mouths, and different energy requirements. Our small dog food range is crafted with these unique needs in mind, offering a variety of options to ensure your little companion gets the best nutrition possible.
Dr James Greenwood
Dr James Greenwood, media vet and Forthglade ambassador, emphasizes the importance of high-quality nutrition for small breeds:
"It is vital that small breed dogs receive a good quality, highly nutritious, complete, balanced, and natural diet. This is why it’s important to offer small dogs a food tailored to their specific needs that they find irresistibly appetising and will give them the correct nutrition in order to thrive.”
How Much Food Does a Small Dog Need?
Understanding how much food your small dog needs is key to maintaining their health. To determine the right portion size for your dog, consider factors like age, activity level, and weight. It’s always a good idea to follow feeding guidelines and consult your vet to tailor the portion sizes specifically to your dog’s needs. For more detailed advice, visit our dog feeding advice page.
