There are a lot of people who have pet dogs and don’t think a lot about it when they first start, probably just for fun. When they see other people have one, they think that they want to have one too. But in reality, there are still a lot of considerations. Alaskan dogs come from the polar regions, they are quiet and friendly to humans, especially to children, and can play well with children. Loyalty is strong, but they are still rather loose and less disciplined. If we are going to feed an Alaskan, we need to start paying attention to diet, health, exercise, and hygiene. Of course I’ve been asked how much dog food to feed an Alaskan puppy in a day if I feed it myself.
First of all, we have to decide the amount of food an Alaskan dog should eat, depending on their size. For puppies, you can eat less and more meals. But we should also remember not to feed too much at one meal, and then feed four to five times a day, each time about 30g of dog food. Because the gastrointestinal function of the puppy is not good, if you feed too much will increase the burden on the stomach and intestines. So the owner can look at their feces in the morning, if it is normal, you can feed them according to the usual amount on the next day. If the feces is a little thick, then it means that the dog’s digestive ability is not good, and the next day you have to reduce the amount of food.
If it is an adult Alaskan dog, their stomach and teeth are better developed, so that the ability to digest and chew is very strong. The daily feeding time can be consistent with the time when people eat, about three times a day. An adult dog can eat two to three pounds of dog food in a day, which can be divided into three feedings. It is also important to note that if you ensure that your adult Alaskan dog is nourished with proper exercise, otherwise it will be easy to cause obesity. You can also give your dog homemade dog food, and you can use meat with vegetables together for a more balanced nutrition.
Because Alaskan dogs are large and eat a lot of food, it is important to take care when feeding them, and you can combine the two by ensuring that you give them proper exercise along with their diet.
