As summer approaches, people often feel the heat and experience fatigue, as well as a reduced appetite. During this time, they tend to gravitate towards refreshing foods. Our pets are also affected by the summer heat, and they can lose their appetite and become picky eaters. So, how can you make sure your dog gets a healthy and appropriate diet in the summer?
As high temperatures can reduce a dog's appetite, there's no need for parents to worry too much. However, to make sure the food stays fresh and to avoid any stomach upsets, we can cut back on the portion size and make sure it's kept at the right temperature.
For instance, you can mix yoghurt and yoghurt packets with dog food after refrigeration to make it more tasty and let your dog enjoy the food while getting enough nutrients.
If your dog comes back from a walk on a hot summer's day, a popsicle can help bring down their body temperature quickly, but don't overdo it to avoid diarrhoea. It's especially important to divide the popsicle into multiple feedings for small dogs.
It's a good idea to store dog food in the fridge. When your dog is hungry, you can take out some cold food to help stimulate their appetite. Green bean soup is also a great option. Green beans help to cool the body down, so giving your dog some green bean soup in moderation can help it to recover from heatstroke.
To sum up, if we want our dogs to stay healthy in the summer, we need to think about their appetite, make sure they have a balanced diet and try to include some summer-friendly foods in their meals. As long as we look after them, our dogs will have a great summer.
