It’s the season when puppies are frequently born. The editor discovered an interesting thing, that is, if dogs from the same litter are raised by different owners without obvious differences, their body shape and appearance will be very different when they reach adulthood. Of course there are reasons for individual differences. But according to my investigation, I found that parents also have a huge impact on dogs as they grow up. How to raise a healthy dog ​​requires grasping the following key growth periods!

Survey results

Through surveys, we found that parents who raise dogs with excellent appearance and shape often pay attention to the feeding and care of dogs during several critical periods.

So what are these critical periods? What role do they play in the growth of dogs?

Critical period for Qida’s growth

After my investigation and conclusion, dogs have a total of 7 critical periods of growth. They are:

The first stage: the puppy is born from the womb

The second stage: from birth to 21 days old, ears and eyes open

The third stage: 21 to 28 days old, rapid sensory development stage

The fourth stage: 21 to 49 days old, social consciousness sprouts

The fifth stage: 49 days to 12 weeks old, expanding social contact (independence)

The sixth stage: 3 to 4 months old, social status is established. The seventh stage: 4 to 6 months old, the fighting period accompanying the teething period

It can be seen that except for stages 1, 2, and 3, most of which we cannot control, the rest are in the hands of parents. And most of the critical periods are in the puppy age. Therefore, we only need to grasp the feeding, nutrition and training of puppies during their development stages. You can raise an excellent dog. The main way for dogs to stay healthy is through effective and precise nutritional intake and efficient, hypoallergenic digestion and decomposition. Just like milk powder for babies. We dogs also need high quality mouth-opening food.

Grasp the diet during the critical period

As can be seen from the above, let alone dog sociality (dog training). A healthy and well-developed dog is inseparable from early nutritional supplements and high-quality food. We all know that there is a special category of puppy food called milk cake food. Its main function is just like baby milk powder, which is to provide the nutrients needed for the growth and development of puppies at this stage.

Then some parents may ask, what is the difference between milk cake food and puppy food?

Let me give you the answer:

The main difference is that the consumption time of the two is different. Puppy milk cake is given to puppies from 1 to 4 months after weaning. It has comprehensive nutrition, high digestive safety, and good palatability. It can help dogs improve their own resistance and can also meet the needs of puppies during their transition to food. Special nutritional requirements during the period.

Puppy food is given to dogs during the weaning period of more than 4 months. When we feed puppy food, we should also pay attention to step by step. Because the dog may not be very accustomed to dog food, it should be fed according to the method of small meals and frequent meals. At the same time, it is also important to choose a suitable puppy dog ​​food, which needs to be judged based on the actual situation. Later, you should also pay attention to the transition between puppy dog ​​food and adult dog food.

01So what kind of milk cake food is suitable for feeding during this critical period?

1. Precise nutrition: It has the effect of stimulating immunity and can enhance the resistance during the critical period of weaning.

2. Strengthen the intestines and stomach: It has the effect of strengthening the intestines and stomach, which can promote the development of the digestive system and the effective absorption of nutrients.

3. Easy to digest: It should be hypoallergenic, safe and easy to digest, which can reduce diarrhea and gastrointestinal discomfort.

4. High rehydration capacity: better taste, puppies prefer to eat.

Only milk cake food with the above conditions is the most suitable dog food for dogs at this stage (critical period), and can lay a solid foundation for the healthy growth of dogs now and in the future.
