The Right Diet For Stray Dogs
Stray dogs at corners of every street and many wonderful people selflessly try to help dogs by feeding them. While such acts are highly appreciated, it is always better to know what food items are good for the health of the dogs in order to prevent avoidable sickness.
The best foods that you can feed strays are boiled items like potatoes, rice and other vegetables. These are the easiest and essential meals. AVOID foods like biscuits, leftovers and milk which have ingredients like sugar, spices which put them at risk of diabetes and weight gain. Milk and certain dairy products also cause vomiting, diarrhoea as most dogs are lactose intolerant.
SAFEST foods that dogs will likely not have a bad reaction to include:
* RICE
* EGGS
* BOILED VEGETABLES
* THROW AWAY MEAT PARTS
* FRUITS (apples/ bananas/ papaya/ pear)
* Packaged dog food (it is not the best food for strays and should be given in minimum quantity but if you don’t like to cook. Canned dog foods can be a good substitute for feeding strays)
Foods to AVOID:
* CHOCOLATE/ CAFFEINE
* DAIRY PRODUCTS
* DRY FRUITS
* SWEETS
* GRAPES
Let’s keep this in mind when feeding our furry friends in order to help the in the best way possible!!
