Nutrition – RolyPoly PugsHome of Grand Champion Pugs

RolyPoly Pugs Home of Grand Champion PugsCANINE NUTRITIONEDUCATE YOURSELF AAFCO (Association Of American Feed Control Officials) is who governs our pet food industry.AAFCO only governs what pet food companies put on their bags/cans.  They do not govern pet food company’s websites, pamphlets, signage, commercials, or their demonstration representatives.Look for other non biased organizations to educate you.  Example: The Small Animal Clinical Nutrition 5th EditionRemember to feed nutrients within the min/max for your Pug’s age and activity level.The Ingredients List on pet food bags/cans starts with the heaviest ingredient first, weighed before manufacturing.  After manufacturing and removing the water content the order of this list would change!If you have questions about the food you’re feeding like, calorie content, quality of ingredients, or anything else that is not listed on the bag/can there should be a 1-800# on the product.  If they can not answer your questions or get you someone who will then I would consider finding another company.Excess of anything is not usually better.  Example: Too high protein levels can cause kidney damage, usually not showing any signs until it is too late.FEEDINGPremium food is a complete nutritional meal.  Be aware of this when giving treats and adjust your pet’s meals accordingly.  Also use caution and consult a veterinarian before adding any supplements as they can have adverse effects if they are not needed or used appropriately.Use the proper diet for your pet’s age and activity level.  All puppies should be fed only puppy food up until they are 12months old, no younger, no older.  If your puppy is too fat, adjust the amount, do not start adding Adult food to keep weight down.  This can have internal and external adverse effects on a growing puppy.  There are feeding guidelines on all bags/cans.  Remember these are only guidelines and should be adjusted to maintain ideal weight.Try not to switch foods, it leads to pickiness.Pugs should not be free fed as it can be hard to regulate what they are consuming.  Try putting the food down for 15min. if they are not actively eating it, pick it up until the next meal.  They will eventually eat.Pugs usually act like they are starving to death 24/7.  This is normal behavior, find other ways to show your Pug you love them.  If you can not bare those pleading eyes, take some of their food and put it in a leftover container and place it in the fridge or pantry.  They will think they are getting human food as a treat.  Remember you must still adjust for these treats in their meal amountIf a Pug goes off it’s food comletely seek veterinary advice, do not start switching foods or adding things to their diet.Fresh water must be available at all times.  Water dishes should be scrubed daily to help prevent dental decay.See below hand weight chart to help you decide if your Pug is at it’s ideal weight. IDEAL WEIGHT CHARTB – Run your fingers across the top of your knuckles.  You will feel deep valleys and high ridges. If your dog’s ribs feel similar to this they are too thin.
C – Slightly push on the meaty part of your palm.  If your dog’s rib cage area feels similar to this then they are too fat.
A – Run your fingers across the front of your fingers.  This is how your dog’s rib cage area should feel.  This is a dog’s ideal weight.   You should not have to push on the rib cage to feel this just as you did not when you felt the front of your fingers.
DOG FOOD INGREDIENT MYTHSMyth – Corn is a filler.
Fact – Fillers serve no nutritional purpose and corn does not fit this discription.  Corn can be a nutritionally superior grain compared to others used in pet foods because it contains a balance of nutrients not found in other grains.  Corn provides a highly available source of complex carbohydrates, linolic acid, amino acids, and fiber.
Myth – Corn is not digestible.
Fact – Properly processed corn is almost 100% digestible.  This is more then many meat products.
Myth – Corn is highly allergenic.
Fact – Only 2.4% of dogs are known to be allergic to corn.  Foods most cited as causing canine food allergy are beef, dairy, and wheat.  Most canine allergies are caused by envirinment not food.
Myth – Meat Meal is superior to Byproduct Meal.
Fact – Both Meat Meal and Byproduct Meal can contain quality protein that is digestible and palatable.  Byproduct Meal is slightly more concentrated protein source. 
Myth – Byproducts are of lesser quality than meat.
Fact – Byproducts used in premium pet foods can be of human grade.  Many Byproducts offer superior palatability to mucsle meats.
DEFINITIONSByproducts – The secondary product of any item.  Example: Vitamin E is a byproduct.Clinically Proven – The product of two clinical studies that were conducted in the exact same way with the exact same end result.Holistic – There is no legal analysis for this term.  AAFCO does not recognize this term, therefore any pet food can claim that they are holistic.Human Grade – This in not an AAFCO term.  Only the USDA governs this term.  It is very rare to find pet food that is human grade because of the expense.Meat Meal – The rendered product from mammal tissues, exclusive of blood, hair, hoof, horn, hide, manure, stomach, and rumen contents except in such amounts as may occur unavoidably in good processing practices.Natural Ingredients – Ingredients that have not been chemically altered.  This is an AAFCO recognized term and is governed by this agency.  Make sure the bag/can says that it used natural ingredients and does not just have the word Natural in it’s name which means nothing.Organic Ingredients – Must be free of artificial food additives, and are often processed with fewer artificial materials.  Pesticides are allowed so long as they are not synthetic.  This is an AAFCO recognized term and is governed by this agency.  To be Organic the bag/can must have a USDA seal.  Again, it means nothing to have the word organic in the name.Heidi is a Certified Pet Nutrition Expert

10 Tips To A Healthy Pug – Pug Health Guide Online

10 Tips To A Healthy Pug
A pugs health, just like any other breed of dog, should be of paramount importance. This is why we have created a handy top 10 tips to having a healthy pug guide so that you can give your pug its greatest chance of living a long and fruitful life.

As with any breed of dogs, unfortunately, things can go wrong and pugs are known within the dog industry for having their fair share of problems. These health issues can be maintained though so there’s no need to worry. Some of the tips that we have outlined below may be obvious to you and some may not but we want to share them with you just in case you’ve overlooked one by mistake!

1. Keep Your Pug Slim & Fit – Most people see a pug and instantly think that they should be overweight. This is incorrect and certainly not how pugs wish to be perceived! Pugs are a very muscular and solid breed of dog with round features. A slim pug will be narrow at the neck, have nice broad shoulders which will get narrower before broadening again by their bottoms. Here our some of our personal dog food tips to keep your pug slim. Don’t feed dogs what you eat, they should have dry dog food instead of the canned variety and limit the amount of dog treats that they receive. Your vet will be able to guide you on how much your pug should be eating.

2. Walk & Exercise Your Pug – Pugs are known for sleeping over 13 hours a day and there’s nothing wrong with that. Pugs certainly need daily exercise though to keep their weight in order and to maintain a healthy heart and lungs. When walking your pug, please be aware of their breathing to ensure that you don’t push them to their limits. Due to their squashed faces, they do suffer from breathing issues. Pugs don’t need intense exercise, just short, regular amounts.

3. Keep Your Pug On A Lead/Leash – If you’re walking in an area that you are unsure of, please keep your pug on a lead or leash to ensure that they are with you at all times. When holding your pug, you can be sure that they won’t get away from you.

4. Keep Your Pug Enclosed – All breeds of dogs enjoy running around in a yard and garden. If you have a backyard, please ensure that it is secure and that your pug will not be able to escape.

5. Brush Your Pugs Teeth – Dental hygiene is essential for all dogs but especially pugs. A pug with healthy teeth will be able to digest their food better than a pug with food already in their gums from their last meal. This reduces the chances of stomach illness or intestine blockages. Rotting teeth can also cause abscesses which are very painful and are easily avoided with regular brushing. world of pug Choose an approved dental dog treat which are hard and abrasive as these remove plaque and tartar. Our handy tip when brushing your pugs teeth is to apply some liver flavoured toothpaste, get someone to hold your pug safely and brush quickly. After a few attempts, dogs get used to this and you shouldn’t have any future issues.

6. Check Your Pugs Temperature – Pugs suffer from overheating issues so regularly checking their temperature is a great way to maintain a healthy pug. Heat exposure can be fatal in pugs as it severely affects the heart and can cause seizures, heart attacks and kidney failure. Please also remember that just because your pug doesn’t appearing to be suffering from the heat, this doesn’t mean that they aren’t. Ensure that they are kept cool and well hydrated at all times in hot weather. This is to be taken VERY seriously.

7. Protect Your Pug From Parasites – Be aware that all dogs including pugs are prone to fleas, ticks, hookworms, roundworms and other parasites unless given the proper vaccinations and repellents. Consult your vet for in depth advice and use products such as Frontline to reduce the risks attached with this. A handy tip is to ensure that you clear your pugs poop up as soon as possible as worms are often found in the stool. Worms such as Hookworms lay their eggs in the grass and they can stay dormant for as long as a year so you want to make sure you reduce that chance as much as possible.

8. Give Your Pug Attention – Pugs love attention and although we’re sure we don’t need to tell you this, GIVE THEM ATTENTION. We know that life can be stressful at times but just remember that you have a pug who will cheer you up and reduce your stress levels. They are amazing dogs, treat them how they treat you.

9. Don’t Smoke Around Your Pug – This is a very short and sweet tip, NEVER smoke around your pug. It is bad for humans and just as bad, if not worse for all dogs, especially pugs.

10. Take Your Pug Places – Pugs are very social dogs and they love to be taken on special trips. This is a great way to keep your pug happy by introducing them to new scenery and smells!
