Two Decades of Experience with Boerboels at Topguard Kennels
Our 20-year journey with Boerboels has led us to deeply understand and fine-tune their dietary needs. At Topguard Kennels, we’re dedicated to the health and well-being of our Boerboels, ensuring they receive the best nutrition across generations.
Large-breed puppies, like Boerboels, have unique dietary requirements. A diet formulated specifically for large breeds is crucial for their health and development, differing significantly from regular puppy diets.
A balanced diet is key for the bone and muscle development of large-breed puppies. They require controlled amounts of high-quality protein to support muscle growth while preventing skeletal issues due to overgrowth.
Protein and Caloric Intake in Large-Breed Puppies
The ideal protein content for large-breed puppies is about 22-26% of their daily caloric intake. Managing their caloric intake is also vital to avoid excess weight, which can stress their developing joints.
Supplements for Healthy Development
Incorporating supplements like glucosamine and chondroitin in their diet is essential. These ingredients aid in joint flexibility, cartilage maintenance, and can help prevent arthritis in the future.
A diet rich in Omega-3 fatty acids is beneficial for anti-inflammatory effects, brain development, and maintaining a healthy coat. The right balance of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients is critical for their overall development.
Our Classic Salmon and Potato recipe is specially designed for large breed puppies. We wean our puppies onto this recipe from 4 weeks old, continuing until they are 12-15 months old. This recipe includes low protein content, controlled fat, essential fatty acids, glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, and added vitamins and minerals, free from artificial colours or preservatives, and is rich in salmon as a digestible protein source.
