As a pet nutrition expert, I recommend a balanced diet tailored to your pet’s species, age, size, and health. For dogs and cats, high-quality commercial pet food with proteins (e.g., chicken, beef), fats, carbs, vitamins, and minerals is ideal. Check labels for AAFCO approval. Fresh water daily is essential. For dogs, 25-30 calories per pound of body weight; cats, 20-25 calories, adjusted for activity. Avoid toxic foods: chocolate, grapes, onions, and garlic. Treats should be less than 10% of intake. For special needs (e.g., allergies, obesity), consult a vet for customized plans—grain-free or raw diets may suit some pets. Monitor weight and behavior; adjust portions if needed. Supplements like omega-3s can boost coat health. Always introduce new foods gradually to prevent digestive issues. Questions? Specify your pet’s details!
