Keep Your Dog’s Toothy Grin Healthy With Dental Treats

Keep your dog’s grin healthy with dental treats. My dogs don’t even know that I am taking care of their teeth when I treat them with a Greenie dental treat. To them, I am just handing out a tasty treat and they are grateful for it! All of my dogs love these treats and I love the fact that it freshens their breath while it cleans their teeth. These little green treats are also loaded with plenty of vitamins and minerals to keep them healthy. When dogs chew on these toothbrush shaped treats, they are reducing the amount of plaque on their teeth and keeping their gums healthy, too.  The all new greenies have a new formula that blends soy and wheat protein to help ease digestion and are a total balanced nutrition with 52% protein.

If your dog is alone while you are at work, give him dental toys to entertain himself with while you are gone. The Dental Kong soothingly massages your dog’s gums while cleaning his teeth. These bone shaped toys have a hollow place inside of them to conceal a treat. Putting toothpaste on the grooves of the Dental Kong effectively cleans the dog’s teeth while the dog is retrieving the treat that is hidden inside. The smaller sizes of Kongs have a cotton floss rope attached; this rope does a good job of removing food particles just like when we floss our own teeth, effectively getting rid of plaque and tarter. Www.luvurdog.com has many more dental treats available to keep you dog’s grin healthy.

The Dachshund Diet

Pet food

Pet food

Despite advocates of “natural” dog food offering sometimes bizarre warnings, commercial dog foods are fine and recommended by veterinarians to feed your Dachshund.  Some of those concerns are well placed, though.A diet that is not too rich and not too lean, full of healthy ingredients (balanced) is best.  But that advice is far too vague as it stands.  What does it really mean?

- Ingredients

Any commercial kibble food will have a list of ingredients on the package, starting with the one present at the highest percentage listed first.  Ensure that the ingredient listed first is some kind of animal protein.  Chicken, beef or lamb are the most common.The proteins in vegetables are harder to break down into useful components and contain smaller amounts of the needed amino acids.

Like most other dogs, Doxies are by nature meat eaters.  But fresh meat isn’t required.  Anything that provides enough protein is fine, since what is really needed are the amino acids that go to make them up.  Any protein consumed is broken down to those constituents then “re-constructed” again by the dog.

Besides amino acids, there are a number of essential vitamins and minerals required for good functioning.

Foods rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids are good not only for humans but are good for Dachshunds, too.  In both cases, those compounds help improve joint and skin health.

Antioxidants perform a role similar in a Doxie’s life that they do in their owners.Vitamin E, beta-carotene and others help protect the immune system by reducing the “free radicals” that can build up in the body.  These are elements or molecules with an extra electron that can harm cells when they exist in too-high concentrations.

Fat, far from being the villain it is sometiems (incorrectly) painted in discussions of human diet, is a must.  Fats provide compounds vital for good nerve function.  They are broken down to take part in forming hormones and enzymes.  They also provide a source of calories that Dachshunds need to pwer all those activities, just as people do.

- Amounts

Puppies that have been weaned should eat 3-4 meals per day.Even though it may be inconvenient for the owner,smaller amounts, fed more often, are preferable to large helpings at one time,.  The routine is best for Doxies about 8-12 weeks old.

Between the ages of 3-6 months the frequency should be reduced to no more than three and possibly only two meals per day.Even puppies can get fat, so keep a watchful eye on the waistline behind the rib cage.  It should have a slight curve.If your Dachshund has lost the waist line, you may be feeding too much.

That advice is a little more difficult to follow in the case of Dachshunds than some other breeds, since they are a bit more tubular by nature.  Even so, the curve can be seen if you observe closely.  Aid your eye by feeling the puppy in front of the rear legs.  Get familiar with their shape and it will be easier to judge small changes.

By the time they’ve reached a year old, one meal per day is fine.  If they seem eager to eat more often two meals is fine, but divide the portions in half.

Feed your Dachshund a premium brand food.  Those contain a more appropriate quantity of calories and less “junk food” than cheaper brands.  For fussy dogs, or just for extra flavor, mixing a spoonful or two of wet food with dry is fine.

Never give your Doxie chocolate, raisins, grapes, onions, macadamian nuts or xylitol which are toxic to dogs.
