Possibility of cooking peas, millet, pearl barley for dogs.

Each dog requires special attention both in communication, training and nutrition. The smaller the dog is in size, the less its nutritional requirements are. However, the diet should include everything you need.

Peas… There is no consensus regarding the addition of peas to a dog’s diet. Some people think that in general all groups of legumes are very poorly digested. Others call peas healthy food for the dog’s body.

Peas are primarily a source of complex carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and vitamins of various groups. A dog’s digestive system differs from that of a human in that it has fewer digestive enzymes, which leads to gas and bloating. After that, diarrhea, vomiting, blood particles in the feces may appear.

 

Therefore, it is recommended to serve peas in the form of soup and additives to other foods.

Millet… Millet is also difficult for the dog’s digestive system to absorb. Volvulus may occur. Various studies of scientists have shown that millet does not carry special beneficial properties, therefore, this type of cereal should only be added to the diet in portions, and not entirely.

Barley porridge give dogs a minimum amount, since it is very difficult and takes a long time to digest. If you decide to feed the dog with pearl barley, it must be very carefully cooked for softness. And it is best to mix with rolled oats.
