What is a good healthy diet for a Rottweiler?

Answer 1

Answer

A good brand for a large breed dog is canidae or EVO. Stay away from grocery store brands. It also depends on the medical history of your rott. Some foods are better for dogs with sensitive digestive systems. (Sorry to say but you want your dog to poop no more than twice a day with good solid stool. If there is a lot of poop than your dog is probably not absorbing a sufficient amount of nutrition from it's food) If you were to go with a RAW FOOD diet, raw meat and blood will not cause your rott to bite. Poor ownership and lack of training it what causes vicious behavior.

Answer

Good dry dog food and wet food is a good balance for your dogs. You can add carrots, peas and other good veggies in there if you like. It's important when feeding any dog dry dog food (very concentrated) that they have a lot of water nearby. Some dogs are just brought up on dry dog food. I use "Baneful" and you can get the huge bags for the bigger dogs. There are other good products out there so if in doubt ask your vet.

Answer

Another good brand of dry dog food is Nutro. Whatever food you decide on, check the ingredient list on the back of the bag and look for Chicken By-Products. If this is one of the ingredients of the food you've chosen, consider another. Essentially Chicken By-Products are the leftovers, beaks and feet. They're filler and only help your dog to leave more waste outside.



Answer

Most importantly, DO NOT feed pets food that have WHEAT GLUTEN in the ingredients! This was the cause of the pet food recall. Also, dog foods that contain any kind of by-products or rendered "protein meals" may not be the best choice for your dog either & likely go against much of society's morals. The truth about "protein meal" is that it is basically rendered shelter pets & bad meat from the grocery stores along with some other mystery contents. An excellent brand with ZERO rendered ingredients & ZERO by-products & ZERO junk is "Pet Promises". It contains good stuff & I am yet to find ANY animal that doesn't absolutely love it. I would strongly advise all pet owners not to feed their pets IAMS brand food. Not only does a lot of cruelty go into every morsel of IAMS pet food, but any food that an animal has to be weaned off of like a cocaine addict has to be weaned off of crack most likely is not good for your pet.

Be careful when feeding your rotty human food. They are more prone to digestive problems than other dogs. These digestive problems can be triggered by a hard to digest piece of human food. Then it will just snowball from there.
