Choosing the Best High-Protein Miniature Pinscher Dog Food

Miniature Pinscher

In regard to weight, the Miniature Pinscher is a very small dog generally weighing 8-10 pounds. The Miniature Pinscher is also considered a small dog in regard to height, with an average height of 10-12. 5 inches. If you're trying to figure out the optimal dog food for your Miniature Pinscher, you should definitely consider the option of a high-protein dog food like those available from Spot & Tango. The Miniature Pinscher is an AKC Registered breed in the 'Toy Group' with roots originating back to Germany. The proud, fearless and fun-loving Miniature Pinscher with an alert and responsive 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 Miniature Pinscher 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 Papillon and of course the Miniature Pinscher. 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 Miniature Pinscher, can benefit from a high-protein diet. For example, take the Miniature Pinscher small frame of 10-12. 5 inches and weight of only 8-10 pounds. If put on a diet that's full of fillers versus lean proteins, the Miniature Pinscher could easily become obese or, due to lack of nutrient dense high-protein, become a shadow of their typically fearless, proud, fun-loving self!

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

The Miniature Pinscher is considered a moderately active dog and thus your Miniature Pinscher 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 Miniature Pinscher. Furthermore, the calories in high-protein dog food are more efficiently used by a moderately active dog like the Miniature Pinscher. 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 Miniature Pinscher is low in carbohydrates which are a non-essential component of a healthy diet for most dogs, but especially true for a moderately active Miniature Pinscher.
