Dogs at every age stage need different nutrition, and their diet needs timely adjustment. During the puppy stage, feed goat milk powder, milk cake, or puppy food. Note it is goat milk, not cow's milk, because dogs lack sufficient lactase, and cow's milk contains a large amount of lactose. Feeding too much cow's milk can cause diarrhea and bloating in dogs. Puppy food should be soaked in warm water before feeding for better digestion. Puppies need to be fed4times a day, regularly and in set amounts at set times, which is very beneficial for a dog's health.

Adult dogs need to be fed2-3times a day, choosing dog food suitable for their nutritional needs. If a dog’s coat is rough and dull, you can buy dog food with higher lecithin content. For dogs with a sensitive stomach and poor appetite, dog food with high probiotics can be purchased.
