DOGS EAT MORE IN WINTER
During the winter months, dogs must work to maintain a safe body temperature and many calories are burned to do so. In summer months, dogs tend to do the opposite: they are less active and require less food, so their appetite is decreased.
Feeding your dog high quality food, like OMEGA PET FOOD, will provide all the nutrition your dog needs.
Remember that fresh water must always be available!

PROTECTING YOUR DOG’S SKIN FROM THE INSIDE
The skin is the largest organ in the body and its critical for keeping out potentially dangerous pathogens like bacteria, viruses and fungi. The skin is a protective shield keeping moisture in and irritants and pathogens out.
Nourishing the skin from the inside with essential fatty acids, particularly Omega 3 (EDA and DHA) and 6 (GLA) are vital. These fatty acids are found in oily fish and salmon, key ingredients of the OMEGA PET FOOD RANGE. The high EPA/DHA content in OMEGA PET FOODS supports skin barrier integrity and reduces itchiness.

WHY DOGS EAT GRASS
Many people think dogs only eat grass when they feel sick or when they are lacking certain nutrients. However, research shows this is not always true. According to veterinarians, very few dogs show signs of illness before eating grass, and only some of them vomit afterwards.
THERE ARE SEVERAL REASONS WHY DOGS MAY EAT GRASS:
• Some dogs simply enjoy the taste and texture of grass.
• Eating grass can keep them entertained, especially if they are bored or want attention.
• Grass may provide extra fibre, which can sometimes support digestion.
• As natural omnivores, dogs may have a residual instinct to consume plant matter, including grass
So, eating grass can be a normal behaviour in dogs, if it does not happen excessively. However, if a dog often eats grass and vomits afterwards, it is best to consult a veterinarian.
Always feed your dog a well balanced diet like OMEGA PET FOODS.

PAVLOV’S DOGS!

Dogs are creatures of habit. We can use this fact to our advantage by creating a regular feeding schedule and sticking to it. In general, dogs should be fed twice a day. When your dog is used to eating at the same times each day, his body becomes conditioned to expect food at those times.
Dogs will be even more excited when fed OMEGA PET FOOD because it’s your dog’s first choice!

WORLD STRAY ANIMAL DAY: 4 APRIL
South Africa Focus: With roughly 4.05 million homeless dogs and cats, many are unsterilized (nearly 90% in some surveyed areas), leading to explosive population growth.
Contributing Factors: The crisis is driven by abandonment, neglect, a lack of affordable veterinary care, and limited pet-friendly housing.
High cost of pet food is a significant contributing factor to an increase in stray and surrendered animals. Feed your dog an affordable, high-quality food like OMEGA PET FOODS.

DOG SCRATCHING ALL OF A SUDDEN – IS IT THE FOOD?

It is important to note that food is highly unlikely to be the cause of your dog’s scratching. Less than 1% of dogs suffer from primary food allergies (like the percentage of humans suffering from food allergies). Your dogs are most likely scratching due to seasonal environmental allergies, also called atopy, a common problem certain times of year. It is important to note that atopy is like hay fever and asthma in people. There is no permanent cure, it can only be managed.
It has been shown that higher levels of the Omega 3 fatty acids EPA and DHA lessen the need for any drugs in about two thirds of dogs

Consider changing your dog to a food with higher levels of the Omega 3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, like OMEGA PREMIUM ADULT. Available from leading veterinary practices and Vetshops.
