If dogs happily eat whatever falls from the owner's table, this does not mean that it will do them any good.
By abusing such generosity, pet owners themselves bring the visit to the veterinarian closer and increase the frequency of visits to the veterinary clinic.
Here's what the experts have to say about it.
Although the first option is a complete diet for dogs, many people still prefer to prepare food for their pets themselves.
What you shouldn't feed your dog
Natural food advocates should remember this list of products that at first glance seem harmless.
1. Dogs should not be given raw meat in general and pork and lamb in particular.
2. Also prohibited are all meat delicacies from the human menu, such as cutlets, dumplings and sausage.
