1. Understand the taste of pets

First, clarify the age, weight, and physiological status of your pet, and choose the corresponding nutritional standards. For example: the puppy stage is the peak period of growth, and the required protein requirements, vitamin requirements, and fat requirements are correspondingly higher; the above nutritional indicators for adult dogs can be appropriately lower; pets during pregnancy and lactation have special nutrition requirements requirements; these require special attention.

2. Nutritious food preparation

Determine the type and quantity of nutritious food according to the characteristics of household food resources, so as to make it economical and convenient to purchase. Most families will have some rice, white flour, cornmeal, meat, eggs, fish, carrots, spinach, fruits, etc. These can all be reasonably applied to the formula of homemade dog food. It is worth noting that there are some foods that humans can eat that pets must not eat, such as onions, ginger, chocolate, cocoa, etc. In addition, it is also necessary to keep some vitamin A, vitamin C and other vitamin tablets.

3. Record ingredient data

Before each homemade dog food, it is best to use a pen and paper to list the types and quantities of raw materials used to prepare dog food. It should be noted that you should try to choose some that are better for digestion and absorption. There are more varieties, and there are fewer things that are high in fiber and difficult to digest. We know that it is beneficial for pet dogs to eat a certain proportion of crude fiber. However, dogs have relatively short intestines, and the weight of the digestive tract only accounts for 2.7% to 7% of the body. Excessive crude fiber can cause indigestion and difficulty in pets. For absorption, especially for dogs in the puppy stage, they should add less. And record each ingredient in detail on paper, so that you can form a stable and healthy homemade dog food ratio record through observation and comparison.
