Fresh Food for Portuguese Podengos

The Portuguese Podengo is a breed of dog that originated in Portugal. They are a medium-sized breed, with a sleek, athletic build and a short, smooth coat. There are two varieties of Portuguese Podengo: the wirehaired variety and the smooth-coated variety. The wirehaired variety has a wiry, dense coat, while the smooth-coated variety has a short, smooth coat. Portuguese Podengos are intelligent, energetic, and energetic dogs that are well-suited for a variety of activities, including obedience, agility, and tracking. They are also known for their strong prey drive and are often used for hunting small game. Portuguese Podengos are generally friendly and social, but they can be reserved with strangers. They are loyal and protective of their families, and they make excellent watchdogs. In terms of care, Portuguese Podengos need regular exercise and mental stimulation to keep them happy and healthy. They do well in a variety of living situations, including apartments, as long as they receive enough exercise. They are generally easy to groom, with the smooth-coated variety requiring only occasional brushing and the wirehaired variety requiring regular grooming to maintain their coat. Overall, the Portuguese Podengo is a versatile and energetic breed that makes a great companion for active families.

Joint Protection

Portuguese Podengos are prone to joint problems, and maintaining a healthy weight can help alleviate these issues. Fresh food, such as that provided by Cola's Kitchen, can be particularly beneficial as it contains Omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to reduce inflammation and improve arthritis. In contrast, kibble that contains these healthy fats may become rancid if it sits on the shelf for extended periods of time, reducing or eliminating their beneficial effects and potentially contributing to inflammation. By feeding your Portuguese Podengo fresh food, you can ensure that they receive these important nutrients in their most effective form.

Better digestion (Amazing poops!)

A fresh diet can be incredibly beneficial for your Portuguese Podengo, as it provides high-quality, easily digestible protein. This type of protein supports muscle growth and maintenance, as well as a healthy heart. Additionally, a diet that is easily digestible often leads to what is known as "high quality poops." Studies have shown that a digestible, bioavailable diet can affect the quantity and quality of your dog's feces, resulting in smaller, less smelly stools compared to those produced on a kibble diet.

Know what’s in the bowl

Portuguese Podengos with dry and itchy skin, sensitive stomachs, or other signs of food allergies and sensitivities may benefit from being aware of exactly what they are being fed. Kibble can be a challenge in this regard, as it often includes unidentified ingredients that may be causing problems. Many dog owners have noticed improvements in their pets' symptoms when they switch to fresh food, as food allergies and intolerances are quite common. Consider trying fresh food to see if it helps your Portuguese Podengo.

"I AM A CUSTOMER FOR LIFE"

I have two dogs, one of which eats  everything in sight and the other who is the worlds most pickiest eater. she  sits there smells her food and literally walks away if it’s not to her standards.  But with Cola’s Kitchen that has gone.. she is now the first one by her food  bowl and eats everything on her plate.. I am a customer for life. I feel well  knowing my babies are getting the nutrients they need and the correct  portions. Thank you so much for making such quality food for our fur babies.

"I CANNOT RECOMMEND COLA’S ENOUGH"

Months into switching to Cola’s, he  still licks the bowl clean. He’s so healthy in every way, this food is  honestly fantastic - and it smells like actual food. Not to mention the  quality is incredible, great value for the cost and its a local family-owned  company with such an incredible staff. They’ve always gone above and beyond,  and the packaging is so clean and easy. 'I cannot recommend Cola’s enough! It’s  been such a great find for me and my dog.

"TAKE THE CHANCE, YOU WON’T REGRET IT"

Zeus was diagnosed with diabetes at age  1 and I was devastated, it broke my heart. After trial of different foods  from kibble to wet, to freeze dried and let’s not talk about raw where I  almost lost him to a massive gut infection, I found Cola’s Kitchen who  literally saved me and Zeus! The food is personalized and portioned &  Zeus loves their recipes. I can not say enough about this company. Take the  chance, you won’t regret it!

"OBSESSED WITH COLA’S KITCHEN"

Our 1 year old Saint Bernard has tons of food allergies (including chicken) and is a picky eater. We went through months and months of trying different kibbles and wet food to no avail - he didn’t like anything and frequently had an upset stomach. Now he is OBSESSED with food from Cola’s Kitchen!! He devours the food (which we mix with limited ingredient kibble because he eats so much). He is so happy and healthy. We noticed a huge difference in his energy, his coat is full and shiny, he gained weight, and his stool is perfect for the first time in a year. On top of that, the owners and staff at Cola’s Kitchen are thoughtful, considerate and incredibly helpful. They give a true personal touch for all of their customers. I cannot praise them enough, they changed our lives!

"ABBY’S COAT IS MUCH SOFTER"

Abby has been on Cola’s Kitchen Fresh Dog Food for about 4 months now. I’ve noticed that her coat is much softer and she is not scratching as she did in the past! The website is easy to navigate and edit the food choices before the next delivery. Updates on food delivery are great!
