Based in the Tri-State Area, Meshugga Kennels focuses on the breeding of Pugs and Labrador Retrievers. Meshugga Kennels upholds a commitment to the health of each dog and offers a five-year guarantee for each puppy that it raises.To keep your Pug healthy beyond puppyhood and into the adult years, you need to be aware of its health challenges and characteristics. As Pugs are predisposed to obesity, proper feeding is one of the most important skills that their owners can learn.A Pug should be taking in the appropriate number of calories for his or her age, metabolism, and activity level. Most Pug puppies do well with 1 ounce of food for each pound of dog weight, while adults take in half an ounce per pound. This should translate to approximately 50 calories per pound for puppies and 40 calories per pound for adults, with a margin of error of 30 percent.Different foods have different calorie counts and nutrition balances. You can check with a veterinarian to ensure that your Pug’s feeding schedule works with his or her food type.Many Pug owners find that home cooking works well for their dogs’ nutritional needs, but this is not possible for all households. Fortunately, Pugs can still do well with commercial food, particularly if the food features meat or specific types of meat meal as the first five ingredients on the label. You may wish to watch your Pug carefully to make sure that he or she is able to digest the food that you are offering, as some Pugs have allergies or intolerances that make common ingredients difficult to digest.
