1. Dry dog food
This is the most common staple food for German Shepherds. The high-quality dog food on the market is all food formulated after expert research. The nutrients and proportions of nutrients contained in the dog food are determined based on the physical growth needs of German Shepherd dogs. Therefore, choosing special dog food can not only meet the growth needs of German Shepherd dogs, but also remove tartar from German Shepherd dogs, clean teeth and stabilize gums. At the same time, German Shepherd dogs also love to eat this kind of food.
2. Canned food
Canned food with juicy meat and soft texture has different flavors and chewiness, which can stimulate the appetite of German Shepherd dogs. Dogs generally like this kind of food very much. However, it contains high protein. Usually, when mixed with dry dog food, the intake of calories and carbohydrates will increase, so it should not be eaten in excess. At the same time, this type of food should be used up promptly after opening, because canned food will lose its fresh and delicious taste soon after opening.
3. Vegetables
Vegetables contain a lot of vitamins and are a very good food for the physical growth of German Shepherd dogs. Generally, vegetables that are suitable for household consumption can be fed to shepherd dogs. For example: carrots, cabbage, broccoli, blueberries, peas, green beans, watercress, celery, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, etc.
IV. Pemmican
Adding crunchy pemmican to canned food for German Shepherds not only increases fiber and fat, but also makes it chewy and strengthens the movement of the palate.
5. Half-raw food
Semi-raw food is a food similar to cheese. The caloric content is three times that of canned food. However, it contains a lot of carbohydrates, so German Shepherds with diabetes cannot eat it. You can feed the greedy old German Shepherd appropriately according to its amount of exercise.
Six. Glue biting
Glue chewing is not glue, but a bone-like gelatinous substance compressed from beef bone powder. It is a very suitable food for German Shepherd dogs to grind their teeth. On the one hand, it allows the German Shepherd to grind its teeth, and on the other hand, it can also eat the nutrients in the beef bones.
