Any commercially manufactured dog food in the UK that meets UK Pet Food guidelines will contain complete nutritional requirements for pets, says the British Veterinary Association (BVA). Some pets have specific nutritional needs based on clinically identified issues, and they should eat diets appropriate to their needs under veterinary supervision. Commercial options are a safer bet for nutrition. The PFMA says that commercially prepared raw dog food marked as ‘complete’ meets the guidelines to provide the nutritional balance a dog needs in their daily diet.Some pets appear to be sensitive or intolerant to certain ingredients and additives, and this can cause a variety of problems. Weight-related problems can range from musculoskeletal conditions to breathing issues and diabetes, among others.

The PAW report also estimated that around half of the overweight and obese dogs had health issues which could be related to their weight.

Country Dog Original is a complete balanced formula for working and sporting dogs. Our Country Dog Classic is manufactured from quality UK meats and cereals and made with pride right here in the UK.

A few extra bits of kibble might not seem like a lot, but it can massively contribute to weight gain.
