Special Nutritional Needs For The Afghan Hound
By: Jane R. Bicks, D.V.M.
An elegant athlete, the Afghan Hound is a beautiful dog that takes pride
in it's long, flowing, silky coat. A coat that is dull, sparse,
short, or feels like cotton is unacceptable.
A high-quality alternative professional food is a must!
(See below for my recommendations)
Brewer's yeast or spirulina can be a plus. Bloat prevention is a good
idea. Vegetable enzymes are a must because they will ensure better
digestion (for bloat prevention) and nutrient delivery to the coat
in the Afghan Hound.
Since well developed muscles, healthy lungs, and a strong heart are
assets during field trials, the addition of L-Carnitine and taurine
righ foods (wheat germ, torula yeast, raw meat) makes good sense for
the Afghan Hound breed.
