Why a Balanced Diet Is the Foundation of Your Dog’s Wellbeing
A nourishing diet is one of the most important ways you can support your dog’s overall health and happiness. Just like humans, dogs need the right balance of nutrients to support their energy levels, digestion, immunity, skin, coat, and long-term wellbeing.
High-quality dog food should provide a good balance of protein, healthy fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Protein supports muscle and tissue repair, fats help maintain healthy skin and coat, and carbohydrates provide essential energy for daily activities. Choosing food made with clearly identified, natural ingredients can make a meaningful difference to your dog’s health over time.
Even with a balanced diet, some dogs may benefit from additional nutritional support. Factors such as age, breed, activity level, and lifestyle can affect nutritional needs. This is where thoughtfully formulated supplements, such as multivitamin soft chews, can help support overall wellbeing by filling potential nutritional gaps.
At Apple Patch Pet Care, we believe that consistent, mindful nutrition forms the foundation for a healthy, happy dog — supporting them not just today, but throughout every stage of life.
Practical Tips for Everyday Nutrition
1. Choose quality over quantity
Look for dog food with clearly listed, recognisable ingredients and an appropriate protein source as the first ingredient. Feeding the right quality food helps support digestion, energy levels, and long-term health.
2. Adjust food to life stage and lifestyle
Puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs all have different nutritional needs. Consider your dog’s age, size, and activity level when choosing food and portion sizes to avoid under- or over-feeding.
3. Support nutrition with supplements where needed
If your dog has specific needs or a busy, active lifestyle, a daily multivitamin soft chew can help support overall wellbeing by complementing their regular diet.
