Doberman Health: Smart Outdoor Feeding Practices

Image
Nutrition & Health: Outdoor Feeding Many of us feed our Dobermans outdoors, especially when the weather's nice! But leaving food out can attract pests. Uneaten food spoils quickly, potentially causing upset stomachs. Consider switching to scheduled feedings. Put the food down for 15-20 minutes, then remove whatever your dog hasn't eaten. This helps prevent attracting unwanted critters and encourages your Doberman to eat when the food is available. Remember to adjust portion sizes as needed to maintain a healthy weight!
