The benefits and methods of feeding kelp to dogs
Kelp has extremely high nutritional value and is rich in various minerals, vitamins and active ingredients that promote animal growth, especially high in iodine content. As a feed additive for dogs, kelp can significantly improve the reproductive performance of breeding dogs and the weight gain and disease resistance of puppies.
The specific feeding methods are as follows.
1. Use 500g of kelp + 30g of animal oil + 2000g of water to make soup and feed it to the postpartum female dog, which can increase the amount of lactation. Feed it once a week for half a month before giving birth, and once every 4-5 days after giving birth.
2. Chop 50g of kelp + 1000g of fresh bones + 3000g of water to stew. Divide the soup into two meals to help the female dog regain her appetite after giving birth.
3. Adding 5% kelp to the diet of puppies and feeding them to puppies will increase their weight gain by 20% and increase their survival rate by 10% compared with puppies fed without kelp.
4. Adding 5% kelp to the diet of breeding dogs can increase the estrus rate and conception rate of female dogs. And it is said that it can also improve the survival rate of sperm in the semen of breeding dogs.
In short, when using kelp as dog feed, additives can significantly improve the utilization value of the feed and be more beneficial to dog health. But here is a reminder: Although kelp is good, don’t give it to your dog too much, just an appropriate amount, and it’s best to chop it into pieces.
