Choosing the Best High-Protein Welsh Terrier Dog Food

Welsh Terrier

In regard to weight, the Welsh Terrier is a small dog generally weighing 20 pounds, proportionally smaller (female). The Welsh Terrier is also considered a medium-tall dog in regard to height, with an average height of 15 inches (male), proportionally smaller (female). If you're trying to figure out the optimal dog food for your Welsh Terrier, you should definitely consider the option of a high-protein dog food like those available from Spot & Tango. The Welsh Terrier is an AKC Registered breed in the 'Terrier Group' with roots originating back to Wales. The intelligent, friendly and spirited Welsh Terrier with a outgoing demeanor, generally does particularly well on a high-protein dog food. This is thanks, in part to, its small size combined with its usually high energy levels.

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

Terriers are bred to hunt. They are bred to kill and often times eat: rats, mice, squirrels and other vermin. Genetically, the Welsh Terrier, part of the AKC's Terrier Group, are pre-disposed to a high-protein diet. Combine this fact with the reality that most terriers (including the Welsh Terrier) today struggle with weight gain due to lack of exercise, and you'll see why we recommend a high-protein dog food that's correctly proportioned for your Welsh Terrier. Originally from Wales, the Welsh Terrier can make the best of its 12 to 15 years on a high-protein dog food that's full of the nutrients the Welsh Terrier needs but without the empty calories that could lead to weight gain.

Why A Usually Energetic Welsh Terrier May Need a High-Protein Dog Food

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