How to Feed Your Dog Coconut Oil

How to Feed Your Dog Coconut Oil




Giving coconut oil to your dog is an excellent healthy option which can improve your dog’s quality of life. But there is a question I am asked on my way, how much is too much? Or how much is safe?

Start Slowly and Increase Gradually
At the beginning  start slowly and increase gradually. Too much coconut oil too soon can lead to digestive problems.
Large quantity of coconut oil can cause diarrhea or greasy stools while his body adjusts to the new diet. Start with small amounts, such as 1/4 teaspoon per day for small breeds or puppies and a full teaspoon for larger breeds. If your dog seems tired and acts negatively  or uncomfortable, cut the amount a little bit to give him time to adjust. You can divide the dose throughout the day. Coconut oil is best given with regular dog food, coconut oil can be added to any food at any meal.

Feeding Guidelines
A general and widely practiced  guideline for optimal dose for dogs is 1 teaspoon per 10 pounds of body weight daily or 1 tablespoon per 30 pounds of weight. But it would not be wise to start with this amount in the beginning.
If you are used to cook for your dog, coconut oil  would be an excellent ingredient in the recipes.
Most dogs like coconut oil so it won't be that much problem with feeding them.

The Benefits You Get From Your Dog

When you are ill or injured the road to recovery is paved with medications and therapies, with a healthy diet, physical activity. In our daily life healing comes first. But what helps us most, to heal is not always found over the counter. Having a dog will change your life automatically. These furry co-dependents will fill your life with a lot of meaning, with love, loyalty and companionship. They will be always with you at the times of loss, strife, illness or other difficult times. Animal behaviorist noted that dogs ‘mourn’ in their own way. You can ask dog lovers. The dog not only have emotional power, but also it can help you to heal. It is not a coincidence that a dogs are brought into hospitals and rehabilitation centers, it makes people feel better physically or spiritually. People have cats and fish, but for most of us dogs have always been the thing. Last year a study found that owning a pet – especially a dog- improve cardiovascular health by keeping people active which also reduces stress and lower blood pressure and weight. Other research has suggested that petting a dog makes us feel better, because it causes the body to release the hormone of affection-inducing. Taking care of a dog can be challenging sometimes. But the positive side of petting a dog are countless. It can bring you back to the life. Because it is your pet all you care about and sometimes you have to live for them as they would not survive without you. 
Taking care of a dog can be challenging at times, and losing a pet is pure, unadulterated heartbreak. But the positives of letting a dog into your life far outweigh any potential negatives. I have witnessed time and again at the Imus Ranch how caring for an animal – whether a horse, dog, chicken or cow – can bring people back to life. It allows children and adults battling illness to put that all aside, if only for a few minutes, to take care of another. While this is not a dog’s intended purpose, it is a happy byproduct – just one of many. Having a dog is fun and it is all you need!!

Is your dog biting the back of his legs and the back of his legs and the tail or rump also? Well, this etching pattern is something you should be worried about! Your dog  has  fleas for sure! You have not been applying some preventive product topically, which could prevent the fleas in the first place. If you don’t take any action fast, then your dog could end up with flea allergy dermatitis. Which is an uncomfortable itchy rash so your dog can get infected and can get a horrible look! Wait, don’t rush to the your nearest shop to buy crappy shampoos ! Don’t do that! These products are highly toxic and can be harmful for your dog! This is nothing but an unnecessary huge waste of money and time. Don’t be upset, we are not done yet you can still overcome the flea allergy dermatitis  and can say goodbye forever! But you must keep in mind that your pet is not creating the problem alone! Sad but true! 

It was not so long ago that fleas were hatched in your carpet, then got on your dog those will feed on your dog and lay 30-50 eggs each day! The cycle will be repeating forever! You must have noticed that the main culprit that should be blamed for is the environment. Here is some advice so you can beat flea allergy dermatitis : 
  1.  Treat your dog with ACTIVYL  or Advantix II  Don’t bathe it yet it won't help now. It may even get worse if you are not fast enough to get the treatment. And do not forget to use coconut oil topically, which is very help full and is clinically proven. coconut oil is best for the prevention of flea allergy dermatitis. 
  2.  Scatter Borax detergent on all your floors, carpet, rugs and brush it away. This detergent does dehydrate the eggs, larva so they are easy to clean up. 
  3.  If your dog has a bed, you should treat the mattresses with borax and clean it up well. 
  4. Three days after you apply the treatment, you can bathe your dog to remove the dirt on their skin. 
  5. Repeat the cycle every two weeks, for three times more. 

Always remember, that prevention is better than cure. I think you have now concluded to continue the treatment monthly that will benefit you in the long term.
