Whatever you feed your pets will affect the output that your pet will eliminate later on. Regardless of their activities, what they have taken in will eventually be excreted.
There are several factors that may affect the type of outputs that your pets will produce. Some of these factors are the weather, illness, or nerves. Nevertheless, it is the diet of your pet that will greatly affect its fecal output. While we may consider our pet's dirt as stuff that are disgusting, we also need to know that we can learn a number about the state of health of our pets from these excretions.
In addition, pet owners have to know the effect of their pet's diet on its output as it is part of their responsibility, to clean up after their pets. While this might not be the best part of having pets, these are necessary not only for our health but also that of our pets. It is for this reason that we should be choosy about the food that we choose to give our pets.
If you have made it a habit to give your dog foods that are full of fillers, your pet's outputs or excrement may tend to be runny, and difficult to remove. Usually, the feces of a pet with an unhealthy diet tend to be large, messy, and with a stinky odor. Even the treats that you regularly give your pets will affect its outputs as these become part of your dog's diet. So the next time you feel the urge to give your pet a cookie or junk food, think twice before you do because you might not feel as good when you will be forced to clean up for your pet.
On the other hand, if you will make it a habit to give your dog a balanced diet and some dog supplements, you will find that your pet's dirt would be less messy to clean up. While it might not make the deed less disgusting, it will become more tolerable. More importantly, you will feel better knowing that your pet is following a healthful diet. Dog trainers and handlers can attest to this fact, which is why you seldom find stories about these people having problems cleaning after their dogs. Lastly, aside from being more vigilant about what your dog eats, you should also follow the feeding schedule strictly for you to be able to accurately predict your pet's next potty time.
