Bichon Dog (Detailed Introduction)

If you don’t know, it’s okay. The dog feeding column will introduce the feeding skills of Bichon puppies, adult Bichons, and senior Bichon dogs through this article.

1. Feeding skills for Bichon puppies: It is best to feed Bichon puppies dog food during their puppy period. Although some puppies may not like it, dog food is the most balanced nutritional food. If they really don’t eat it, you can feed them sausage or eggs (which they really love). Their fur will become very shiny. Porridge is also good, very digestible and suitable for puppies.

When feeding Bichon puppies, soak the dog food with clean water first to soften it. Feed four times a day. If possible, add some high-protein food such as eggs to prevent picky eating.

2. Feeding skills for adult Bichons: Once the Bichon grows into adulthood, feeding becomes relatively simple. Generally, one to two meals a day are sufficient.

Also, avoid giving the Bichon milk and fatty meat, as this easily causes diarrhea. Bichons like sweets, so if the dog does not like vegetables, you can feed adult Bichons some fruits such as apples and pears to supplement vitamins. To avoid making the Bichon too greedy, don’t feed pure meat all the time. It’s better to mix rice with chopped lean meat and sausages. Oh, and chocolate must not be given to dogs as it is toxic and very dangerous.

3. Feeding skills for senior Bichons: When Bichons reach old age, their physical fitness declines, and their digestive function is not very good. Therefore, dog owners should choose easily digestible and absorbable food to reduce the gastrointestinal burden on senior Bichons. Also, because Bichons tend to have allergies, it is best to choose food without additives. Occasionally adding some boiled chicken or vegetables to the food will increase the appetite of senior Bichons.
