The larger breed puppies with heavy bone in the growth period it is necessary to enrich the diet with proteins . Puppy dogs, which is scheduled to take heavy (including military) activities include eating raw meat and fresh beef and lamb with blood from the slaughterhouse (if possible) or drugs type of Hematogen.

Adult dogs of medium-sized dimensions, not employed the use of body load, can be fed leftovers from the table products, preventing the ingress of fish and bird bones, spices, too sweet, salty or overcooked food.

Bones dogs can be given all except bird, thin, tubular and fish. It is also impossible to give bone fragments – they hurt mouth and can become lodged in the throat of the animal. From bird bones should be cut with pruning shears and give the dog a mild articular end, not touching the tubular part (it should be discarded, eliminating the possibility of access for dogs to such waste). Remember – bird tubular bones in case of a cracking split into thin sharp plates, which can not only cause serious injury, even death to dogs!

The nutrients contained in fish bones, can also be used. For example, the large bone of the ridge, separated from fine and thin, you can skip through a meat grinder, make sure the lack of needles, to give the dog as feeding. Softened bones of the fish, from a can or cooked in a pressure cooker, you can give the dog without fear. All the bones it is better to give raw, not cooked.

From time to time need to feed the dog, holding the bowl with food in hands: the dog should not be jealous of the owner to poor. However, it should not be accustomed to exclusive feeding from hand. Craziness, from the earliest days to the owner and also the family members, who will feed the dog, you need to regularly intervene in the process of feeding, pressing the dog to the first requirement gave man, even the most delicious piece or bone. This is necessary so that you can, if the need arises to take your pet suddenly caught him in a bowl or in the mouth dangerous thing, object or spoiled product.

This is done as follows: while feeding the command: “Yuck! Give!” with enclosed the dog name. Then the piece is taken, but instead immediately offered a new, much more delicious (sausage or cheese, for example). Pretty quickly the dog will develop a conditioned reflex and she is always willing to drop any piece, hoping to get something even more delicious. But remember: the conditioned reflex should be regularly reinforced, otherwise it will fade away, and the dog will not listen. And do not try to develop such skill in adult dogs with a dominant food reaction can be bitten! To start developing this skill need only from puppyhood!
