Feeding

Royal Canin Medium Junior

Feeding your Siberian properly primarily involves, in most cases, listening to your puppy's breeder. Feed the food that the puppy has been raised on since he began eating solid food. Siberians are efficient in digesting their food. Their metabolism system is unique. For their size, Siberians do not consume a large amount of food. However, they must be fed the correct diet for them or they will have loose stools.

Correct diet is something that you can easily control. Puppies are like babies, the best food for them is the food they are used to and agrees with them. The main source of protein must be from animals, not plants. Make sure there is no soy in the food. Siberians do not digest soy products very well.

There are many good dog foods on the market, but many of the foods that are acceptable for other breeds are not suitable for Siberians. Since Siberians consume a relatively small quantity of food for their size, they must have a high quality, highly digestible food. The digestibility of most dog foods on the market is not of a high enough quality for Siberian puppies.

Many puppy foods have milk or whey added, are lower in protein and may cause the puppy to have loose stools. Loose stools on a new puppy play havoc with toilet training, and result in slower growth and poor condition. Many new owners change foods trying to cure the problem, and this causes stomach irritation and the problem escalates.

Royal Canin is probably one of the best quality puppy foods available for Siberian puppies. Their Medium Junior food is ideal for puppies, and contains everything they will need up to 12 months of age.

Always ensure that your puppy has access to fresh, clean drinking water at all times.
