Food

A balanced diet for your English Cocker Spaniel may be provided by high-quality commercial dog food, whether it's dry kibble or canned. Try to find products that have either actual meat or meat meals listed first. Steer clear of meals that are too processed and have a lot of artificial ingredients. Think about choices that are tailored to their age, size, and degree of activity.

The growth of strong muscles and general health in a Cocker needs a diet rich in protein. Chicken, turkey, beef, and fish are examples of foods that include animal-based protein sources. Amino acids are building blocks for many biological processes, and these proteins provide them.

Your dog's busy lifestyle requires carbohydrates for energy. Opt for complex carbs like sweet potatoes, brown rice, and whole grains instead of simple carbs since they deliver energy more slowly.

Fats are essential for energy production, proper joint function, a healthy coat, and general wellness. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids may be found in foods like fish oil and flaxseed.

The antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals found in produce help keep your dog healthy and strong. Apples, blueberries, spinach, and carrots are some safe choices. Dogs can't eat some things, so stay away from raisins, grapes, onions, and garlic.

Do not overfeed your Cocker Spaniel; uncontrolled weight gain is common in this breed. Always keep an eye on your dog's vitals and follow the feeding instructions on the food container. Take their exercise level and general health into account when determining portion sizes.
