Pet owners have to be responsible in giving treats to their dogs

 
Orlando Florida – Dog owners would just be delighted to see their pets’ faces light up and wag their tails at the sight of some doggie treats . However, they have to be responsible in giving these treats and make sure that they are healthy for their pets. According to experts, treats should not be more than 15% of dogs’ daily intake.

There is a wide range of treats for dogs, from homemade to commercially made, such as biscuits and chicken jerky treats. They are a great way to reward dogs for their good behavior or to add variety to their diet. But, if they are not given properly, they may pose a threat to dogs’ health. Experts suggest that these treats should not be more than 15% of dogs’ total diet. These are addition to their diet, and going more than that may cause them to be overweight or obese. Dog owners may say that one extra piece of chicken jerky or biscuit will not make a difference, but it does.

Moreover, when buying commercially made doggie treats, dog owners should check the list of ingredients. Organic ingredients are better because they are less likely to be adulterated with contaminants.

“It seems like we are always hearing about some dog treat that has made our beloved dogs sick. I do extensive research before I buy any treats for my dog. I will only buy a product that is made in the USA. I was glad to have found this product, and our dog LOVES, LOVES, LOVES it. If I could post a video, you would see her smiling as she is getting ready to receive her treat. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product. You, (and your animals) will not be disappointed.” – Brenda, Gourmet Chicken Jerky Treats Customer
