Snacks are a kind of supplementary food for dogs in addition to the staple food. They can allow pet owners to better train their dogs' behavioral norms, and can also make the dogs happier and more lively. There are many stores selling dog snacks on the market, and they are generally welcomed by pet owners in foreign shopping malls. They also come in various flavors, bringing a variety of choices to dogs' diet. However, snacks are not just given to your dog casually. You need to pay attention to the following four points:

1. Do not use snacks as a substitute for staple food

A balanced nutritional diet is extremely important for dogs to grow up healthily. Pet owners should not think that just filling their dogs’ stomachs is enough. Snacks are supplements, not staple food. The nutritional content of snacks is relatively single. It does not fully contain the nutrients in the staple food. Long-term use as a substitute for the staple food will cause nutritional deficiencies in dogs and may cause diseases.

2. Moderate amount

You can put the amount of snacks for a day in a separate place, so that everyone can take them from that place, which can prevent the dog from eating too many snacks and affecting the main meal.

3. Don’t let good snacks turn into “bad snacks”

One of the common uses of dog treats is reward. If the reward becomes a daily occurrence, the dog will not think of it as a reward. This will directly affect the tool used as a pet training and praise

4. Snack matching

In addition to being used as a tool of praise, dog snacks can also have some additional functions. For example, harder dog snacks can help dogs remove tartar. The more difficult-to-bite dog snacks can help dogs pass the time and relieve boredom. Meat snacks can satisfy your dog’s cravings.

Therefore, combining different types of dog snacks for dogs can, on the one hand, give the dog a sense of freshness, and on the other hand, it can also allow the dog to absorb more nutrients.
