Porridges are an excellent source of fiber, carbohydrates, vitamins and microelements.

For this reason, many dog owners include them in their pets' diet. However, not all of them are able to make animals active and healthy - some, on the contrary, are harmful to the dog's condition.

Corn porridge

This dish is practically not digested by the body, and in some cases it causes intestinal obstruction, exacerbation of chronic gastrointestinal diseases and allergies.

Pearl barley porridge

Pearl barley contains a lot of protein and fiber - dogs often have allergic reactions after eating it. This cereal is also poorly digestible and can lead to diarrhea.

Millet porridge

Dogs have a hard time digesting millet. There have been cases when pets have stomach torsion because of millet porridge. This is the reason why you should avoid including millet in your dog's menu.

Porridges from legumes

Legumes are difficult for a dog's stomach to digest. When they enter the body, they cause severe gas formation and constipation.

Semolina porridge

The most useless porridge of all because it has a lot of carbohydrates and few nutrients. But it can be given to puppies and animals with stomach diseases.
