1. Dog food
Choose the appropriate dog food according to the growth status of the Labrador retriever. For example, it is best for Labrador puppies to eat puppy dog food or puppy goat milk powder, and adult dogs should eat professional adult dog food.
2. Meat and its by-products
No matter what kind of animal they come from, their nutritional content is generally similar, containing more water and less protein, and the fat content varies greatly. Meat contains no carbohydrates because most of the energy is stored in fat rather than sugar and starch. The protein in meat and meat by-products has high nutritional value. Therefore, in Labrador’s daily dog food, meat is the most important, and Labrador must eat a certain amount of animal muscle every day.
3. Dairy products
Dairy products generally include cream, skim milk, whey, yogurt, cheese and butter. Milk contains most of the nutrients Labrador dogs need, but is deficient in iron and vitamin D. Milk is more palatable to Labrador dogs. Generally speaking, dogs of all types prefer to drink milk.
4. Egg
It is a good source of protein, iron, vitamin B2, vitamin B12, folic acid, vitamin A and vitamin D, but lacks niacin. Therefore, eggs should not be regarded as the staple food of Labrador, but can only be used as a useful supplement in Labrador dog food, half a cooked egg yolk per day is enough.
