Choosing the Best High-Protein Havanese Dog Food

Havanese

In regard to weight, the Havanese is a very small dog generally weighing 7-13 pounds. The Havanese is also considered a very small dog in regard to height, with an average height of 8. 5-11. 5 inches. If you're trying to figure out the optimal dog food for your Havanese, you should definitely consider the option of a high-protein dog food like those available from Spot & Tango. The Havanese is an AKC Registered breed in the 'Toy Group' with roots originating back to Cuba. The funny, intelligent and outgoing Havanese with a outgoing demeanor, generally does particularly well on a high-protein dog food. This is thanks, in part to, its very small size combined with its moderately active energy levels.

Why Breeds, Like the Havanese in the AKC Toy Group May Need a High-Protein Dog Food

The perfect dog for the millions of people that live in the city, the American Kennel Club's 'Toy Group' make up breeds like the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, the Italian Greyhound and of course the Havanese. But does a dog of such small size truly need a high-protein dog food? Yes, we believe small dogs like those in the AKC's Toy group, including the Havanese, can benefit from a high-protein diet. For example, take the Havanese small frame of 8. 5-11. 5 inches and weight of only 7-13 pounds. If put on a diet that's full of fillers versus lean proteins, the Havanese could easily become obese or, due to lack of nutrient dense high-protein, become a shadow of their typically intelligent, funny, outgoing self!

Why A Moderately Active Havanese May Need a High-Protein Dog Food

The Havanese is considered a moderately active dog and thus your Havanese could benefit from a high-protein dog food due to that simple fact alone. A dog food rich in high-protein helps to build muscle and support the energy levels of a moderately active Havanese. Furthermore, the calories in high-protein dog food are more efficiently used by a moderately active dog like the Havanese. In fact, dogs that don't receive enough protein can actually experience muscle loss and see a noticeable drop in energy levels. Lastly, a high-protein dog food that's optimal for the Havanese is low in carbohydrates which are a non-essential component of a healthy diet for most dogs, but especially true for a moderately active Havanese.
