Rice Swap
The first change we made in our dog’s diet was to swap white rice with red rice . Red rice contains abundant amounts of antioxidants that help reduce inflammation in the body.
So if your dog is usually bloated and extra puffy after their big rice meal, this swap will do wonders for them.

Grain Swap
We swapped our dog’s breakfast brown bread with ragi malt aka finger millet. Ragi has a much superior nutritional profile than other staple grains.
It’s loaded with fiber, so it lessens your dog’s food cravings. It’s also an excellent gluten-free option for doggos who are allergic to wheat.

Dairy Swap
We started alternating our dog’s breakfast milk with plain curd. The lactose sugar content is much lower in curd as compared to milk.
This way, your pet gets its daily dose of calcium without consuming too many calories from sugar.

Homemade Treats
We’ve relied on packed dog treats for years, but the truth is, the calories add up and it’s not really healthy for your pooch either.
So, we started making easy treats at home that are not only delicious but are low on added sugars and fats too.

Portion Control
Portion control doesn’t mean you have to starve your dog. We reduced the content of rice in her diet by half and doubled the veggies.
We also made sure she gets half a tbsp of ghee in her dinner every day so she stays full for longer. Ghee also improves joint mobility and promotes healthy digestion in dogs.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
