Feeding Lakeland Terrier

Part of the food that a Lakeland Terrier is: chicken, turkey, beef, game, fish, fresh vegetables and fruits, etc.

Occasionally yogurt and eggs. We all know that one of the main sources of protein is meat; this is why so many types of meat appear. The dog needs protein, and meals need to be diversified.

Most foods in stores are based on cereals and other ingredients, not all of which are recommended for animals.

Dogs are harder to digest these combinations with store cereals and over time digestive or other problems may occur. I'm not saying that all types of food in stores are like that, but there are plenty of them.

Corn, soy, wheat, chocolate, etc.are not recommended. these are foods that cause health problems. Loose stools, bloating, itchy skin, etc.instead, all dogs should have fresh water at their discretion to quench their thirst.
