Show Notes

This episode we discuss everything dog nutrition! Dr. Jill Cline of Royal Canin and Eukanuba joins me to cover this topic in a very down to earth and relatable fashion!

  • "Dogs with jobs"
  • Adjust the quantity or adjust the formula based on exercise? (75%-125% of the recommended daily amount rule)
  • The body condition score (working dogs should score 3.5 to 4 in season)
  • Body weight is still the best gauge for caloric needs
  • "Anticipation" calorie burn
  • Adding canned food can add more calories if more than 125% of the daily intake and theres not another formula available
  • Floating vs Dry (Floating needs to be 3x the water to food ratio)
  • Getting enough hydration
  • Dental considerations
  • How often should we feed?
  • The post exercise nutritional window
  • The dogs ability to learn based on their nutrition
  • An allergy vs. an intolerence
  • Grain free diets
  • "Digestibility"
  • Raw food and micronutrient considerations
  • How to handle an upset stomach
