Like humans, dogs need the right combination of the basic food groups in order to have a healthy life span. Dogs also need to be regulated on the kinds of foods that they eat or else they would end up being obese as well.

Included in the dog's dietary regimen are the proper minerals and vitamins. These essential health items should be well incorporated into the dogs daily needs in order to have a healthy body. With poper minerals, and vitamins, dogs will be abel to maintain shiny, healthy-looking coat. For people who want to know how to prepare the right diet for their dogs, here are some tips to guide you through them.

*Meat should not only be the only food incorporated in the dog's diet.

*Dogs need minerals and vitamins. These are needed to maintain the luster and shine in their coats and to provide them with

healthy gums and teeth.

*Real Meal Treats. It is best for the dog owners to include their dogs in their meal planning. With real food, dogs will be able to generate the needed nutrients their body's need.

*Mixed Foods. Giving a dog a variety of foods, nutritional value, and texture are the real diet meal dogs really need. So, go ahead and mix the dry food along with the moist food.

*Greens. A well balanced diet for dogs includes green leafy vegtables. Even if dogs are carnivours by nature, they also need the right amount of greens to provide them with additional nutrients that are only available in green leafy foods.

Best of all, dog owners should always consult their dog's veterinarians especially on things like health and diet supplements for their dogs.

Dogs like humans, should not be fed with junk foods like sugary, sweet, soda. These will only make them fat without the needed nutrients. Stay away from CHOCOLATE, it is considered as poison to your dog as well as your cat.
