Introduction to Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food

Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food was formulated specifically for dogs with sensitive stomachs. If your dog is a picky eater, has indigestion often, or has other gastrointestinal issues frequently, this diet is appropriate for these dogs!

Gastrointestinal issues in dogs can become quite problematic. They can cause issues like vomiting, diarrhea, appetite loss, and more. Both vomiting and diarrhea can lead to severe dehydration, loss of consciousness, and similar conditions that require veterinary intervention.

Appetite loss can also lead to severe developmental issues. A growing dog needs a very high amount of nutritional needs. If gastrointestinal issues cause a dog to consume its fill, then nutritional deficiencies and serious issues will follow if not addressed.

How Does Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food Help?

Dogs can suffer a loss in their appetite from gastrointestinal issues like bloating and indigestion. They might not want to eat too much food because of this. Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food is very calorie-dense dog food, and your dog has to eat significantly less to get his nutrients.

Your dog can get all his nutritional needs met while eating an overall smaller quantity of dog food. The calorie density is also helpful to combat lethargy that is common with dogs who have gastrointestinal issues. Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food also has a high amount of fiber.

This dog food is formulated with both soluble and insoluble fiber. Fiber is important in a dog's diet because it supports healthy bowel movements and soothes indigestion. It can be helpful for dogs who have issues with constipation that often accompany indigestion.

There are also prebiotics and omega-3 fatty acids that further strengthen and nourish the dog's digestive tract. Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil are also excellent for your dog's skin and coat. The prebiotics fortifies gut flora and supplies healthy gut bacteria.

Finally, Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food also has a mix of antioxidants that support your dog's overall health. These help build up the immune system and strengthen it. This is excellent for dogs for gastrointestinal issues as their appetite loss and accompanying nutritional deficiencies often impacts their immunity.

How Much Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food Can I Give My Dog?

22 lbs. 1 cups
44 lbs. 2 cups
66 lbs. 3 cups

Can I Change My Dog's Diet to this Recipe Overnight?

Generally, a period of transition is recommended when switching your dog's kibble. Dogs can be surprisingly fussy eaters, and you want to cut down the chances of that happening. Plus, if your dog's stomach is already sensitive, you don't want to irritate it further by completely changing to a new diet overnight.

Instead, transition your dog to Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food in as little as seven days. On the first and second days, substitute 25% of your dog's current diet with Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food.

Increase this to 50% on days three and four. On days five and 5, increase this portion further to 75%. You can finally give your dog 100% Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Canine Gastrointestinal Fiber Response Dry Dog Food on the 7th day. These are general guidelines to transition your dog to a new diet or dry food.

If you see your dog unwilling to accept an increase during any time during this process, stick with the level your dog accepts for a few more days. Try increasing after a few days and see if your dog accepts it. If your vet has asked you to follow a different set of guidelines, follow that instead.

How Can I Add Fiber to My Dog's Diet?
Answer

While high fiber dry dog food like Royal Canin Gastrointestinal High Fiber food is specially formulated to add fiber to your dog's diet, sometimes it's not feasible. This is especially true of dogs that are picky eaters. However, you'll be glad to know there are several natural sources to add more fiber to aid with intestinal movement. Beet Pulp, Pumpkin, flaxseed, kelp, apples, carrots, and green beans are some great sources of fiber for dogs. Fruits like strawberries and blueberries are also natural sources of fiber for your dogs and promote elevated levels of antioxidants. It's a known fact that antioxidants support healthy immunity and develop overall holistic health for your furry friend. Just don't go overboard with these fruits as they have natural sugar content, and too much of it is not suitable for the dog.

Is Pumpkin a Good Source of Fiber for Dogs?
Answer

When it comes to fiber, whole fruits and vegetables are the best options. It turns out that pumpkin is one of the best natural sources of fiber for dogs. It's best to feed your dog raw pumpkin in smaller quantities to start with and see how they react to it before introducing it to your dog's diet. Pumpkin is enriched with a blend of soluble and insoluble fibers. Soluble fiber creates gas by fermenting in the colon, and too much of it can cause diarrhea. This happens when the fiber is first introduced in the diet or increased. Starting small will negate this issue for the dog.

Answer

Usually, healthy dogs get the required amount of fiber from their regular diet. On average, a healthy dog needs 2 to 4 percent of fiber.

If a dog consumes too much fiber, their bodies will have difficulty absorbing minerals and lead to other health issues. Usual side effects of fiber imbalance include diarrhea, frequent stool intervals, and urgency to defecate in the house.

Is Oatmeal a Good Source of Fiber for Dogs?
Answer

Oatmeal has a high fiber content with a good blend of antioxidants, minerals, and nutrients. This is the reason why it has fast become a common ingredient in many dog dry foods. It has elevated soluble fiber, which regulates the blood glucose level and helps dogs with bowel movement issues. Oatmeal is also a great source of vitamin B, which maintains linoleic acid (omega-6 fatty acid) for healthy skin and coat.

Is Sweet Potato Good For Dogs?
Answer

Sweet potatoes are regarded as an excellent source of dietary fiber. Regular intake of dietary fibers helps your dog's digestive system to function correctly. This whole food is low in fat but has high vitamin A, vitamin B6, vitamin C, iron, potassium, and calcium levels. All of these ingredients play an essential role in maintaining the overall health of your dog. Before feeding sweet potatoes to your dog, remove the skin and boil them. Leaving the skin on makes it harder for your dog, and raw sweet potatoes may cause intestinal blockage.

Does Fiber Cause Gas in Dogs?
Answer

Yes, a fiber-rich diet will make your dog gassy. This is because dogs lack the necessary digestive enzymes to break down soluble fibers. These fibers make their way to the large intestine, where they are fermented and break down bacteria. This process of fermenting and breaking down fibers causes gas in dogs.
