What happens if you feed a puppy senior dog food?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Please don't do this! Puppies need a lot of vitamins and a good healthy start while they are growing and developing. They also need food that will provide more fat and carbs to burn. If they don't get it, they will seem sluggish and won't develop as they should. Senior dog food is made to have a lot of that stripped out because older dogs don't get much exercise and you don't want them to get fat.

Is canned dog food bad for dogs?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, canned dog food is really good for dogs, but if your dog is reacting badly to the food you may want to note the ingredients to try and see what he is reacting to. You could also change dog food. Also, make sure your dog is eating the right foods, for example, a puppy needs special puppy food, which should be changed to adult dog food when he is old enough.

How much sodium should a 10 lb dog have every day?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No need to add salt to your dog's food. Pet foods are manufactured with sufficient balance of protein and minerals to keep your dog healthy. Bones and raw meat also naturally contain sufficient salt for animals. Don't give bones too often, just as a weekly treat. Don't include additives of your own to your pet's diet.

If you hit a dog that wandered into the road who is responsible for damage to the car the car owner or the dog owner?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Possibly. It depends on the leash laws in your city/county, and whether or not an area would be considered "open range" (and, further, whether an open range status would apply to all domestic animals).

If your own carrier is handling your vehicle damages, they will probably research whether billing the homeowner is an option or not. If you're not going through your carrier, you'll need to do that research on your own.

How the loss occurred is important, too. For instance, was it at night? Was the dog sitting in the road, or did it run out between two cars? How fast were you going if it was a residential area? That sort of thing...

It's commendable that you're taking responsibility (trust me, you don't see that a lot in the claims environment), but you should definitely contact your insurance carrier for homeowners coverage.

Handling a claim like this out-of-pocket can be astronomically expensive, especially if you find yourself dealing with an unscrupulous body shop (or vehicle owner, for that matter). You can incur costs not only for the damages, but for supplement or hidden damages and rental.

And, again, there's a possibility that depending on the laws or ordinances in your area, you may not be legally responsible. While you clearly want to accept responsibility, your lawmakers may have determined that folks driving in your neighborhood should exercise more caution, and drive accordingly.

Something to think about...

Good luck!

While I realize that there are different laws in different areas, if the dog wandered in front of the car, I think that the owner should be responsible. I personally own two dogsand treat them as loved members of our family. This means keeping them safe by keeping them in a yard or in the house. Morally, it is the dog's owner who is responsible for the dog's actions and any repercussions.

Of course, legally may be a different matter. We live in the country and there is a leash law out here. The law agrees with me here is Central Texas.

Will a cat go blind from eating dog food?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, a cat can go blind and develop other health problems if fed nothing but dog food, or fed dog food as the majority of the diet.

If the cat eats dog food instead of cat food, then yes, dog food can seriously malnourish the cat after a period of time. Cats have far more nutritional needs than a dog and dog food doesn't contain these essential nutrients such as Taurine. A small amount of dog food will not harm the cat, but this must NEVER consist as part of cat's daily diet.

Cats cannot synthesize Taurine in their bodies (unlike dogs and most other mammals), so they must get it straight from meat. Animal tissues such as poultry and fish are natually high in taurine. Not enough taurine in the cat's diet can lead to heart problems and blindness.

How do you clean dog urine out of a shoe?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

first you spray some smelly stuff in the shoe then if that doesn't work put them in the washer

Simply putting them in the washer will NOT work. Trust me I've tried several times - at least if the shoes are cloth. The smell seems to come out of suede and faux leathers fine but even when cloth shoes are washed with bleach and white vinegar the smell remains.

What is the average weight of a female labradoodle?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A healthy Lab will have a distinct waist, and you'll be able to feel the ribs--but not see them. If you can see ribs, she's too skinny. If you can't see a waist, she's too heavy. Purebred show female Labs will typically weigh around 60-65 lbs., but Labs are bred to many different styles, so the actual number of pounds can vary--so going by the waist and ribs is better.

What is dog food made out of?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Dog food is made from many different ingredients. It varies between dry food or kibble and canned foods. Most foods include some amount of meat product, chicken, lamb or beef. Some contain more fillers such as corn or wheat than others. Most contain added vitamins and minerals for a balanced diet. A high quality food will have less filler and cost more because of this but your dog will be healthier if you feed it a higher quality food.

What fillers are used in dog food?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are quite a few, and not all dog food has the same ones. This is something to ask your vet about if you want the specifics.

Stay away from dog foods that have by-products, corn, wheat, soy, gluten, and dyes in it. Sometimes people like to stay away from chicken because it is a high allergan. Try going with a grain free diet, Taste of the wild makes one along with Innova, Natural Balance and Evo. If you want just an all around good food with whole grains try Wellness, Canidae, Solid Gold, Fromm, or Eagle Pack. Hope that helps
