Everyone knows that Flemish cattle dogs cannot eat too much salt, the food eaten by people is made according to the taste of people, Leftovers and meals must contain too much salt for Flemish livestock dogs, which can cause problems such as shedding of dog hair over time.

Dogs only eat leftovers and leftovers, the nutrition will be unbalanced and unscientific, and easy to get sick

In addition to eating vegetables, people also eat a lot of things every day, such as fruits and snacks , drink many kinds of different beverages, etc., the nutrients obtained from meals alone are very limited, these things help us supplement other nutrients.

Therefore, if the dog only eats leftovers every day, it may be caused by unbalanced nutrition. Sickness, such as malnutrition, can also cause dogs to become overweight.

Leftovers or spoiled leftovers can cause gastrointestinal problems in dogs
