Generally speaking, Shiba Inu dogs eat more natural dog food because it is safe, nutritionally balanced, and very convenient. Of course, in addition to natural food, some lean meat, vegetables, fruits, etc. can also be consumed in a reasonable manner. Ideal foods for feeding Shiba Inu, such as the following:
Natural food: Contains trace elements such as iron, magnesium, and calcium that dogs need, as well as various vitamins, omiga3, omiga6 and other elements. Dogs eating natural food can significantly improve their immunity, enhance their physical fitness, significantly reduce the probability of getting sick, and extend their lifespan. Natural grains are nutritionally balanced, but slightly expensive. Egg yolk: Not only rich in protein, but also vitamin A, calcium and minerals that are easy to digest and absorb, and have the functions of stabilizing pigments and beautifying hair. But don’t give too much, just eat once or twice a week.
Cow and pig bones: Chewing bones is very important for Shiba Inu, because chewing bones can remove tartar from teeth, prevent periodontal disease, and maintain Shiba Inu oral hygiene. In addition, by chewing bones, the bite force of the Shiba Inu's mouth can be trained, which helps to strengthen the body. Just don't chew on bones and chicken bones that are too big.
Carrot: Contains provitamin A, which can supplement vitamin A. Vitamin A is very important for maintaining the shiny texture of hair, which is what we call the hair beautifying effect. Carrots should be cooked and eaten by dogs to facilitate full absorption and digestion.
Beef, pig, and chicken: The meat is softer, more palatable, and easier to digest than dog food. When feeding, it is advisable to choose fat-free portions, because fat easily deteriorates. Feed cooked meat, not raw meat.
