Special commercially produced sensitive stomach dog food is often available from your local vet’s surgery. Such food is often extremely expensive and getting your pet to eat it can be a difficult process as it is generally rather tasteless and doesn’t smell appetising to dogs.
Also, because these special foods are designed to be suitable to feed to dogs with any digestive system related condition, such commercially produced foods often do not contain all the nutrients that they should and that your pet needs daily in order to be healthy.
One of the best ways for you to provide your pet with the special diet that they require as well as ensuring that they receive all the nutrients that are needed and that the food tastes good to your pet, is to make the food yourself using the hundreds of homemade dog food recipes that are available both in hard copies – i.e. books – as well as on the internet.
Low protein dog food is exactly as the name suggests: dog food that has been specially formulated to contain less than the normal amounts of protein. However, it is important to remember that dogs generally require a specific amount of protein in their diets, and it is not advised to switch them to foods where they receive too little, excepting on the recommendation of a vet.
