How to Choose the Right Dog Food

Feeding your dog the right diet is one of the most important steps to keeping them healthy, active, and happy. But with so many brands and types available, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. The best choice depends on your dog’s age, breed, activity level, and overall health — there’s no “one-size-fits-all” formula.

✔️ Puppies: Growing dogs need higher levels of protein and fat to support muscle development, healthy bones, and energy needs. Choose puppy-specific formulas rich in DHA for brain development.

✔️ Adults: Mature dogs thrive on balanced nutrition — a mix of quality protein, healthy fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Avoid overfeeding to prevent obesity.

✔️ Seniors: Older dogs benefit from lower fat content to maintain a healthy weight, plus joint-support supplements like glucosamine and chondroitin to keep them mobile.

Special conditions like allergies, kidney disease, or sensitive stomachs require veterinary-prescribed diets. Always check the ingredient list and avoid fillers, artificial colours, and excess salt.
