L'une des choses les plus importantes que vous puissiez faire pour aider vos gros chiens en surpoids ou éviter l'obésité en général est de vous assurer qu'ils font beaucoup d'exercice. Faire faire de l'exercice à vos petits, moyens ou gros chiens les aide à brûler l'énergie et les calories supplémentaires qu'ils gagnent en mangeant.
Les moyens de garder vos grands chiens en pleine forme
Voici quelques conseils d'un autre propriétaire de chien, Robert de Dog Gear City.
En tant que propriétaire de chien, je peux attester qu'il n'est pas toujours facile de trouver le temps de donner à son chien suffisamment d'exercice. Cependant, en tant que fanatique de la forme physique, je trouve souvent des moyens d'incorporer des exercices appropriés pour mon chien tout en faisant de l'exercice.
Il est essentiel de comprendre à quoi ressemble un chien en surpoids pour votre race spécifique.
You should see your veterinarian about this since they will provide you with all the necessary information about your breed‘s ideal weight.
They will also advise you on what to do to help your dog achieve this weight, whether reduce weight by going on a diet or gaining weight by eating more.
Another often-overlooked way to help your dog eat healthier is to avoid giving them rewards when they haven’t earned them. Treats and special meals should only be used when your dog behaves well or performs requested tasks.
Also, keep in mind that using treats without reason will cause them to lose their value. Don’t be surprised if your dog loses the desire to please you because the treats are no longer as valuable to them.
Quel est le poids idéal pour les petits chiens de race ?
Small dog breeds are usually more prone to become obese than big dog breeds because they often eat much more than they actually need.
This does not mean that their size should be the only factor you take into account when deciding on how much food your dog needs.
If you already have a small breed, however, consult with your veterinarian about the appropriate nutrition intake for them.
Remember that weight gain is also caused by poor lifestyle choices like eating unhealthy foods or portions that are too large. You may think giving your dog treats every now and then won’t hurt, but it really will if this happens frequently.
Therefore, make sure you stick to healthy habits until your dog reaches amounts of weight acceptable for their breed.
Quel est le poids idéal pour les chiens de taille moyenne ?
The ideal weight for medium sized dogs is slightly different from big and small breeds. However, as long as the size falls within the recommended zone for your breed, you shouldn’t have a problem with being overweight.
Also, it’s important to monitor them closely since they’re more prone to obesity than bigger breeds.
If you know that your dog needs a diet but want to avoid going through the complicated process of monitoring their food intake, there are a number of high-quality diets out there designed specifically for this purpose.
This way you don’t have to worry about nutritional values because these meals have been already composed by professionals.
Quel est le poids idéal pour les grands chiens ?
When it comes to big dogs, make sure you take their individual conditions into account. There’s no superior way to determine what your dog should weigh; instead, focus on their unique needs.
Some dogs are already overweight or obese when they are born because of the genetics passed down by their parents. Other large breeds tend to be more muscular and thus need less fat in their diets than other dogs do.
The breed is also an important factor in how much weight your dog needs to lose (or gain).
