Foods That Are Difficult for Dogs to Digest
Japanese Spitz (detailed introduction)
Some owners feed their dogs not only dog food but also other types of food. However, not all the things we feed them can be well digested, which could lead to indigestion and symptoms like vomiting. Therefore, it is necessary to understand which foods are difficult for dogs to digest so that we can effectively avoid certain situations during raising.
First of all, foods like squid, octopus, jellyfish, konjac, bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, and similar items should not be casually given to dogs, because these foods can not only cause indigestion but often trigger vomiting. So these foods must not be blindly given to dogs.
Secondly, bones from poultry such as chicken, duck, and fish should not be given to dogs. These small and sharp bones are hard for dogs to chew and are difficult to digest; they can easily get stuck in the throat or even scratch the stomach and intestines. Therefore, these foods must not be fed to them.
Besides, almonds, peaches, wild moldy foods, bitter melon, plums, ume fruit, and button mushrooms are also not beneficial for dog digestion, so attention is needed.
For pet care, dietary safety is very important. Improper feeding can easily cause many problems for dogs as many illnesses arise from dietary causes. Therefore, we must be extra cautious about food safety.
