What do you think is the most important ingredient in a dry dog food? If you guessed meat, you are quite correct. Canidae understands the importance of protein for a dog’s health and well-being, and has formulated recipes that help deliver the protein your dog needs and craves. While certain breeds might be the exception, most dogs have a fairly high level of activity, and these activities are powered by the dog’s muscles. Protein plays a major role in keeping muscles strong and ready for action. Protein also builds new muscle tissue and repairs damaged muscles, too.
Proteins contain amino acids which are needed for many, many functions of the body. While a dog’s body can make some amino acids, the non-essential ones, the essential ones have to be obtained from meat protein, there is no way around it. Canidae Dog Food understands this, and this is why you will see a protein source heading up the ingredients list on their dry dog food recipes.
Choosing Canidae Recipes
The dietary needs of dogs can vary not only from breed to breed, but also for individual dogs. Highly active dogs like German Shepherds, Dalmatians, and Border Collies require a diet based in protein to meet 
their energy demands. However, even lower energy breeds like Basset Hounds or English Bulldog still need a good quality food to maintain health and stamina. I found that our French Bulldogs were more active than we had been led to believe, and during their puppy-hood, were real little firecrackers. They did calm down somewhat as they became adults, but they still had a medium high level of activity. This is why a food like Canidae is so important, regardless of the breed you have.

If your little guy has been turning up their nose at their kibble, it might be easier than you think to entice them back to eating as they should.

Canidae Pure Protein Topper Wet Dog Food can be added to your finicky fellow’s regular food to motivate them. Salmon is a particularly popular choice, and small dogs may well find it irresistible. Fussy eats can be frustrating, but this topper may help tame them.

Pure Grain-Free Salmon and Sweet Potato Wet Dog Food also makes a great topped for your dog’s dinner. Just a dollop or two on top of the kibble could have your Bichon Frise or Pekingese getting right down to eating without any further controversy.
While any dog can exhibit some fussiness when it comes to their kibble, it does seem as if the smaller dogs are more susceptible to this. It could be that we tend to pamper these breeds more than we would a larger dog, but whatever the reason, it’s still possible to overcome it with a topper or spoon of wet food on top. Keeping dogs of all sizes and breeds healthy and strong is what Canidae Dog Food is all about.
