Nutrition and Your Dog's Behavior
Nutrition and Your Dog’s Behavior
Proper nutrition is the fundamental basis for every aspect
of your dog’s life.
It affects their health and longevity by offering an
essential balance of proteins, fats, complex carbohydrates
and the trace nutrients and minerals their bodies need for
growth, repair and maintains of sound immune system.
Nutrition is a complex and integral part of your dog’s
ability to think clearly, lower stress levels and a produce
a calmer behavior.
Thinking takes a lot of energy. Dogs involved in a training
program, expend tremendous mental energy focusing on the
tasks presented to them. If your dog starts with minimal
nutrition, they become lethargic, edgy or hyper active when
asked to perform the simplest of tasks. They cannot focus
and loss concentration after a short period of time or
become confused. If the dog is continually asked to do
something they cannot comprehend, confusion can lead to an
aggressive form of acting out.
In training dogs, the first thing I look at is the dog’s
diet. I work from the inside out. Training becomes
ineffective if the underlying causes for the behaviors are
not changed.
Hyper, unfocused and out of control dogs often are eating
foods with high levels of cereal foods such as wheat, corn,
and corn meal.
Aggressive dogs eat food containing higher levels of
incomplete protein which do not digest well.
Shy and stressed dogs do not digest their foods well at all
and often suffer from intestinal complications such as
diarrhea. Their coats are often very dry and shed heavily.
One way to test the foods you are feeding is to soak the
food in
water for about 15 minutes. If it swells in size
and becomes mushy, it is primarily cereal.
Are you dog’s stools often soft and loose or is the dog
gassy? They are not digesting the food properly.
By looking at their food, you will do more to help balance
their behavior, as well as, contribute to their health and
longevity.
Life Abundance offers the best combination of food for all
dogs concerned.
The proteins are complete and digest easily.
The carbohydrates are complex and do not turn into simple
sugars producing energy swings of highs and low behaviors.
The Probotics in the food balance and digest more easily,
which is not only perfect for the nervous or shy dogs, but
ensures all dogs are receiving the nutrition they need from
food.
