There are times when it is necessary to change a husky’s dog food: for example, if the current food has run out and the same brand cannot be found immediately; or if the dog is not accustomed to a certain type of food, it also needs to be changed. However, when changing a husky’s dog food, it is important to know some common sense.
When changing a dog’s food, the owner should not switch to the new food immediately. It is generally best to gradually switch over within 10 days. Switching too quickly can cause discomfort in the dog’s stomach.
1. Do not switch to a new dog food too quickly.
Dogs prefer food that they are already familiar with, and are very sensitive to new food. This is because the various enzymes in the dog’s digestive tract need to adjust their content ratio in order to adapt to changes in the food’s ingredients and nutrients. If the food is changed quickly, these enzymes may take 2-3 days to complete their adjustment process, which could result in the food not being properly digested and causing digestive problems.
Especially Huskies, who have sensitive stomachs, should be extra careful and
2.not switch to a new dog food all at once.
The correct method is to gradually switch to a new dog food.
It usually takes more than 10 days to replace the old brand with a new one for a dog.
Before feeding, mix the new dog food with your current homemade or other brand pet food and mix it well. Then, gradually increase the amount of the new food each day until you have completely switched to the new dog food.
III. The proportion of new dog food per day:
Day 1: 10%, Day 3: 30%, Day 7: 70%, Day 10: 100%
