Can dog food be heated before feeding?

Some Samoyed owners are used to heating finished dog food and then feeding it to their puppies. This practice is wrong. Dog food is roughly divided into two categories: canned food and dry food. Neither of these dog foods are recommended for heating. (But if it is a canned food that has not been eaten at one time, it can be heated appropriately.)
1. For canned food, there is no need to heat newly opened cans as they are rigorously sterilized before sealing, especially for imported brands. The hygienic requirements for pet food abroad are the same as others. Usually after opening a jar, if there is any extra stuff in the refrigerator, it should be kept sealed. When taking out food, it should be heated to 40-50 degrees Celsius before feeding. 2. Dry food does not need to be heated at all. Heating dry food usually requires adding water, which will destroy the original nutrition of dog food. Dry dog ​​food is puffed, similar to children's food, not cooked, and carefully prepared to the appropriate crispness, which is beneficial to digestion and exercises the Samoyed dog's teeth.
3. The biggest drawback of heating dog food is that the vitamins are destroyed in large quantities. The structure of the vitamins will change under high temperatures and they will not play their normal role. During the production of dog food, the destroyed vitamins will be replenished to sufficient levels. If the heating temperature is too high, it will be destroyed again, so the nutrition of the Samoyed dog will be much worse when eating.

Is it okay to feed the whole meal with dog food?

Many Samoyed owners are very aware of the dangers of giving priority to food, so It is wrong to add some dog food while feeding meat and liver, so that the Samoyed dog can get comprehensive nutrition. Because any kind of dog food is designed to be a complete dietary nutrient, not the premixed feed, concentrated feed and complete diet of chickens and pigs. Therefore, the full price of dog food cannot be used as nutritional additives. Since only a small amount of dog food is needed every day to supplement the various vitamins required by Samoyed, the activity of trace vegetables and calcium is obviously a drop in the bucket. In addition, some Samoans will choose dog food because of the obvious difference in palatability between owner-produced food and dog food.

Samoyeds should not eat too much salt

Pay attention to the daily salt intake of Samoyed dogs. An appropriate amount of salt can replenish water and trace elements such as sodium chloride for humans and balance the needs of various parts of the body; for Samoyed dogs, excessive salt is the enemy and can cause hair loss, leprosy, and Greatly increases the chance of suffering from skin diseases.
