Dogs can eat calcium from humans

Dogs cannot eat calcium from humans. Calcium from humans is made for the human body structure, so it is not suitable for dogs. When taking calcium supplements for dogs, you must also choose pet-specific calcium supplement products, which contain a variety of nutrients that dogs need, and special drugs are also easy for dogs to absorb.

How to supplement calcium for dogs?

1. Small dog puppies should be fed normal dog food. During the growth period of small dogs, the dog food they usually feed usually contains sufficient calcium nutrition. Therefore, there is no need for additional calcium supplements for small dogs.
Of course, the premise is to choose a dog food with a reasonable calcium and phosphorus ratio for dogs, which can provide sufficient nutrients for small dogs. Eat some calcium-supplementing foods in your daily life, such as tofu, soy milk, dried beans, soy flour and other soy products.Fish is a good source of calcium.
2. Dog food is not enough for medium and large dogs. They need to supplement calcium. You can choose to give the dog some calcium tablets. The absorption of calcium is not about how much you supplement, but how much you absorb. The amount of calcium absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract mainly depends on the calcium nutritional status of the dog's body at that time.
When a dog is deficient in vitamin D, no matter how much calcium is supplemented, it cannot be absorbed well. Vitamin D can promote the absorption of calcium in the intestines, so you can choose calcium tablets containing vitamin D for better digestion and absorption of calcium.
3. Daily sunbathing is a required course for calcium supplementation. Sufficient sunshine can enable dogs to absorb more calcium. More exercise can increase intestinal motility, promote digestion, enhance the dog's appetite, and the calcium absorption rate will also be improved.
