You are ecstatic about the passion and responsibility shown by your child in taking care of his or her dog but be sure to always be hands-on about the nutrition state of the pet because your child may not be able to know this. Dogs in general are active animals and require good food rich in Vitamins A, B-complex, C, D, E ank K.

To help guide you in determining the nutrition levels of your pet dog, you can secure an online chart which can serve as a checklist for the dietary needs of the dog. You can even involve your children in this by telling them of the kinds of food his or her dogg needs everyday.

As a benchmark, the needs of dogs are almost the same as that of humans: high grade meat, vegetables, fruits and a full complement of vitamins and minerals, ranging from calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, boron, chromium, iodine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, sulphur, zinc and many more.

Foods containing high levels of fiber should also be given; as well as high amounts of water to keep your pet hydrated. Do not give in yoo much fatty foods, because similar to humans they can become obese. Healthy dogs are always one of the best pets for kids
