Product Information

Guinea pigs need extremely high levels of fibre in their diet. Without high fibre foods their digestive systems will not work correctly, making them susceptible to digestive problems. Your guinea pigs also need high levels of vitamin C which can be found in our Burgess Guinea Pig Nuggets, as well as certain fresh greens. What’s more, guinea pigs’ teeth are designed to continually grow, though would be worn down by the fibrous grasses they feed on in the wild. If guinea pigs do not get enough abrasive foods their teeth will become overgrown making it painful for them to eat at all. That’s why it’s so important that you ensure your guinea pigs’ diets are made up of roughly 85-90% high quality feeding hay or grass , such as Burgess Excel Feeding Hay with Hedgerow Herbs. The Burgess Guinea Pig Food Range Includes:

Got a question about dry dog food nutrition , high protein dog food or high fibre dog food ? To help you understand more about what to consider when choosing premium kibble, we’ve put together some really useful answers from our nutrition team at Burgess, the pet care experts . Whereas ferrets – for example – are strict carnivores and require a diet with high levels of meat protein and fat in, chinchillas – on the other hand, are herbivores and are designed to eat a high fibre, low energy diet. Ensuring your small animal is fed correctly is your responsibility as an owner. FAD DIETS – SHOULD DOG OWNERS BE WORRIED?Raw, grain-free or home-cooked? The range of options for feeding your Boxer dog seems to be ever-expanding, with owners willingly trying out new foods for their canine companions. But what do animal nutrition experts have to say about it?If you are currently feeding a muesli style food to your chinchillas, you should gradually transfer your pets onto a hay and nugget based feeding plan over a period of between 14 and 28 days, by gradually reducing the amount of muesli and increasing the proportion of nuggets until they have completely replaced the mix. With no artificial colours or added preservatives, the entire Burgess Sensitive dog food range is hypoallergenic, providing a balanced, digestible diet for those dogs who suffer from sensitive skin. Incorporating this into Boxer feeding, if necessary, will help with their wellbeing. It's also worth finding out more about whether your dog could be allergic to your house. Raw fish:Can result in a thiamine (a B vitamin) deficiency leading to loss of appetite, seizures, and in severe cases, death. More common if raw fish is fed regularly. Adult dogs can thrive on two meals a day, but young puppies generally need three meals, fed at intervals over the day. Mealtimes should be consistent, although it doesn’t matter if there is half an hour difference from one day to the next. Generally, you should feed your dog quite soon after getting up, at around lunchtime, and another meal at dinnertime. Getting into this routine not only ensures a good delivery of protein and essential vitamins and minerals but it makes it easier to potty train, and dogs do benefit from routine. Between walks, make sure your Boxer’s brain is getting a workout too – this intelligent breed needs plenty of mental stimulation to stop them from becoming bored.

Complete foods are those which will deliver all your dog’s required nutrients in their daily ration. Complementary diets have high or low levels of certain nutrients and are therefore only complete when fed in conjunction with other foods. Milk and other dairy products:Some adult dogs do not have sufficient amounts of the enzyme lactase, which breaks down the lactose in milk. This can result in diarrhoea.

Both food types can provide all the nutritional requirements of a dog, so it comes down to personal choice and the question of whether your puppy has a preference. It is also possible to combine dry and wet food: some owners like to leave a bowl of dry food down for the dog to graze on over the day, and feed two wet food meals. Always ensure you are measuring the food you give your dog and reduce the amounts accordingly if you are feeding wet and dry or if you give treats regularly. Protein
