You may have already seen us highlighting the importance of a “Complete & Balanced” diet containing a Vitamin & Mineral mix to ward off dietary deficiencies for your treasured pal. To be effective Minerals work together in a simple case of “you can’t have one without the other!” For starters let’s focus on Potassium.
Potassium Chloride is essential for dogs:
- It enables muscle growth and strength, allows muscles to contract and relax which improves the motor skills of your dog.
- Boosts metabolism by helping your dog digest and absorb nutrients faster and break down fats and carbohydrates.
- Directly strengthens the neural paths from the brain to the rest of the body to maintain a sharp brain, improve memory and learning.
- Works together with Calcium and Phosphorus to promote healthy bones and teeth. Potassium keeps acid levels regulated so your dog can retain calcium in his bones and blood. Studies show dogs that receive a regular daily dose of potassium have a higher bone density.
Does all this science sound like hard work? It’s as easy (and tasty) as a daily feed of Kiwi Country “Complete & Balanced” dry dog food.
