+ elif breed == 'Bichon Frise':
22
+ return "Bichon Frise are a small but sturdy breed of dog, known for their glorious white coat – which is velvety to touch – and rounded head hair that sets off large dark eyes and black nose and lips. This breed is prone to allergies so, when choosing a dog food look for recipes with limited, wholesome ingredients and novel protein such as fish, venison, duck or rabbit. Bichons, like many small breeds, are prone to urolithiasis (stones in the urinary tract), so keeping your dog well-hydrated is important to help prevent and control it – make sure your dog has access to bowls of fresh water."
23

25
+ elif breed == 'Boxer':
26
+ return "Boxers are an active breed and require a diet with a good source of protein. Look for dog foods with real meat as the first ingredient, such as chicken, beef, or fish. Avoid products that rely heavily on plant-based proteins. Ensure that the dog food provides a well-balanced diet with the right mix of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. Boxers can be prone to weight gain, so consider a formula that supports a healthy weight. Avoid dog foods with excessive fillers, like corn, soy, and wheat. These ingredients provide minimal nutritional value and may cause allergies or digestive issues in some Boxers. Boxers may benefit from dog food with added omega-3 fatty acids, which can help maintain their skin and coat health, as well as reduce inflammation. Choose dog foods that don't contain artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. There has been debate over whether grain-free diets are beneficial for dogs. While some Boxers may do well on grain-free diets, others may experience heart issues due to a lack of taurine."
27

28
+ return "Boykin Spaniels are active dogs, so it’s important to select a dog food that is formulated to meet their specific energy requirements without overloading them with excessive calories. As always, ensure that the dog food you choose provides a balanced mix of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Opt for a dog food that lists high-quality animal-based proteins as the main ingredients, such as chicken, beef, or fish. These proteins provide essential amino acids for muscle development and maintenance. Boykin Spaniels may have sensitivities or allergies, so be mindful of potential allergens in their food. "
29
+ elif breed == 'Cairn Terrier':
30
+ return "To avoid your Cairn Terrier gaining weight, it’s important to control their calorie intake. Opt for a dog food that is formulated to meet the energy needs of a moderately active dog, and be mindful of portion sizes. Look for dog food that includes sources of omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish oil or flaxseed. These fatty acids can promote healthy skin, a shiny coat, and support overall well-being. Avoid dog foods with excessive fillers, artificial preservatives, and by-products. These can be less nutritious and may cause allergies or sensitivities in some dogs."
31
+ elif breed == 'Cane Corso':
32
+ return "Cane Corsos are high-energy dogs, however due to their size, they do not zoom around as much as other working breeds so can be prone to obesity. Choose a dog food that is formulated specifically for large breed dogs but practice portion control to ensure you do not overload them with excessive calories. Alternatively, consider a formula labeled for “weight management” or “low fat foods”. Look for a product that lists meat as the primary ingredient and avoid foods that contain fillers and artificial additives. Protein is crucial for the growth and maintenance of your Cane Corso’s muscles and overall health, so aim for a dog food that contains around 25-30% protein content. Fats provide essential fatty acids that are beneficial for your dog’s skin, coat, and overall well-being. Look for dog food with a moderate fat content of around 10-15%. While dogs do not require carbohydrates in large amounts, they can provide a source of energy. Look for dog foods that use whole grains or vegetables as a carbohydrate source. Cane Corsos are also susceptible to hip dysplasia, so the food you choose should contain ingredients like glucosamine and chondroitin which can help support joint health and mobility. Cherry eye is also common in this breed so to support eye health choose food that contains omega-3 (DHA and EPA from algal or fish oils). The large, deep chests of the Cane Corso make them susceptible to bloat, which can trigger gastric dilatation and volvulus, or GDV, a potentially deadly condition where the stomach rotates and twists on itself. Feeding two or three smaller meals throughout the day and using a slow feeder bowl, which forces your dog to eat only a few pieces of food at a time, will help prevent this condition. It’s also important not to exercise your dog within an hour of eating, either before or after meals."
33
+ elif breed == 'Catahoula Leopards':
34
+ return "Catahoula Leopards benefit from foods made specifically for medium-large breeds with high protein levels for energy and added taurine and vitamin A to protect eye health and vision. A diet rich in high-quality animal protein sources such as chicken, beef, or fish, is vital so look for a dog food with named meat protein sources at the top of the ingredient list. As with many larger breeds, Catahoula Leopards are prone to skeletal issues such as hip dysplasia. It is, therefore, crucial to choose a dog food that has appropriate and balanced levels of calcium and phosphorus to support healthy bone growth. Look for recipes which contain glucosamine and chondroitin also."
35
+ elif breed == 'Chihuahua':
36
+ return "Chihuahua puppies, adults and seniors each have different nutritional needs for optimal long-term health. Which means, A dog food designed for an adult chihuahua may contain too little calcium for a growing puppy or too many calories for a less active senior. And there are other significant differences, too. For example, A chihuahua puppy needs 1.0% arginine (an essential amino acid)… while an adult requires less, just 0.51% of the same nutrient. In comparison, A senior “chi” benefits from more protein and fewer calories. Since there are no official nutrient standards, to optimize your dog’s long-term health, it's important to choose a food that’s designed to match the AAFCO nutrient profile for your chihuahua’s age and stage of life."
37
+ elif breed == 'Corgi':
38
+ return "Corgis are active and intelligent dogs that require a well-balanced and nutritious diet to support their energy levels and overall health. When choosing a dog food for your Corgi, look for one which contains real animal-based protein sources as the main ingredients. Chicken, beef, fish, or lamb are excellent protein options. Corgis are a small to medium-sized breed, so if you are opting for a dry dog food choose a kibble that is appropriate for their mouth size as this helps with chewing and digestion. This breed also has a tendency to gain weight, so it’s important to control their calorie intake. Opt for a food that is formulated to meet the energy needs of a moderately active dog, and be mindful of portion sizes. Corgis are also prone to joint issues, such as hip dysplasia, so a dog food that contains glucosamine and chondroitin is important as it can support joint health and mobility. Another health issue which can impact Corgis is a sensitive stomach, so select a dog food that is easily digestible and omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish oil or flaxseed. These fatty acids can promote healthy skin, a shiny coat, and support overall well-being."
39
+ elif breed == 'Dachshund':
40
+ return "Dachshund puppies, adults and seniors each have different nutritional needs. Which means some foods would not be a good nutritional match. A dog food designed for an adult may contain too little calcium for a growing dachshund puppy or too little protein and too many calories for a less active senior. And there are other nutritional differences, too. For example, A growing dachshund puppy needs 0.71% isoleucine (one of 12 essential amino acids) while an adult requires just 0.38% of the same nutrient. The health of a senior dachshund can be enhanced by a dog food that contains 50% more protein than a younger animal. Since there are no official nutrient standards established, for optimal long-term health it’s important to choose a dog food that’s suitable for the nutrient profile that matches your dachshund’s age."
41
+ elif breed == 'Doberman Pinscher':
42
+ return "Doberman Pinschers are an athletic, medium-to-large breed which need plenty of exercise, so it’s important to select a dog food that is formulated to meet their specific energy requirements and size. Doberman Pinschers are muscular dogs but prone to genetic health issues such as hip dysplasia, so the food you choose should contain ingredients like glucosamine and chondroitin which can help support joint health and mobility. This dog breed may also be prone to digestive issues, such as bloat. Choose a dog food that contains easily digestible ingredients, such as high-quality proteins and fibers. Avoid foods with excessive fillers or artificial additives that can contribute to digestive upset. As always, ensure that the dog food you choose provides a balanced mix of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Opt for a dog food that lists high-quality animal-based proteins as the main ingredients, such as chicken, turkey, or fish. These proteins provide essential amino acids for muscle development and maintenance."
43
+ elif breed == 'French Bulldog':
44
+ return "Look for dog foods with a high-quality source of protein as the main ingredient, such as chicken, beef, or fish. Protein is essential for muscle maintenance. Avoid dog foods that contain excessive fillers like corn, soy, and wheat. These ingredients can contribute to digestive issues and may cause allergies in some dogs. French Bulldogs are prone to obesity, so choose dog food with a moderate fat content to help manage their weight. If your French Bulldog has food sensitivities or allergies, consider a limited ingredient or grain-free diet. However, consult with your veterinarian before making any dietary changes. Look for dog food with added omega-3 fatty acids, which can help maintain healthy skin and a shiny coat, as well as support joint health. French Bulldogs have brachycephalic (flat) faces, which can make it difficult for them to eat larger kibble. Choose a dog food with small kibble size to prevent choking and make eating easier. You can choose between dry kibble and wet canned food. Both options have their advantages. Wet food can be more appealing for picky eaters and provides extra moisture, while dry kibble can help with dental health."
45
+ elif breed == 'German Shepherd':
46
+ return "German Shepherds require a diet rich in high-quality animal-based protein to support their muscle development and overall energy needs. Look for dog foods with real meat as the primary ingredient, such as chicken, beef, or fish. Ensure that the dog food provides a balanced blend of protein, fats, and carbohydrates. German Shepherds are active dogs, so they need a diet that provides sufficient energy and nutrients to sustain their activity level. This breed is prone to hip and joint issues, so a dog food with added glucosamine and chondroitin can help support their joint health. Look for dog foods that contain omega-3 fatty acids, such as those found in fish oil. These fatty acids help maintain healthy skin, coat, and can reduce inflammation. Avoid dog foods that contain excessive fillers like corn, soy, and wheat, as they provide little nutritional value and can lead to digestive issues in some dogs. Opt for dog foods that don't contain artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. German Shepherds have different nutritional needs as puppies, adults, and seniors. Choose a dog food tailored to your dog's life stage."
47
+ elif breed == 'Golden Retriever':
48
+ return "When choosing food for your golden retriever, it’s super important to consider your dog’s age. Goldens are considered large breed dogs. Even though adult goldens benefit from eating better quality brands, choosing the right food for your puppy can be absolutely critical. Golden retriever puppies have a greater risk of developing a crippling form of hip disease, if they’re fed a diet that contains too much calcium. They must eat a food that’s specifically designed to be safe for large breed puppies. Golden retriever puppies don’t stop growing until they reach 12 to 24 months of age. So, to keep the risk of diet-related hip disease low, avoid switching to an adult recipe too soon."
49
+ elif breed == 'Goldendoodle':
50
+ return "Goldendoodle puppies, adults and seniors each have different nutritional needs. Adult goldendoodles can thrive on ANY top-rated dog food wet or dry. But because they’re the offspring of AT LEAST ONE large-breed parent, Goldendoodle puppies have an increased risk of developing a crippling and permanent form of hip disease if they’re fed a diet that contains too much calcium while they’re still growing. And there are other age-related nutritional differences, too. For example, older goldendoodles require more protein… and fewer calories than younger animals."
51
+ elif breed == 'Havanese':
52
+ return "Havanese can be prone to becoming overweight, so it’s important to select a dog food that is formulated to meet their specific energy requirements without overloading them with excessive calories. Consider a formula labeled for “less active” or “weight management” if your Havanese is overweight or prone to weight gain. Havanese are susceptible to joint problems, including legg-calve-perthes disease and patella luxation, so the food you choose should contain ingredients like glucosamine and chondroitin which can help support joint health and mobility. As always, ensure that the dog food you choose provides a balanced mix of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Opt for a dog food that lists high-quality animal-based proteins as the main ingredients, such as chicken, turkey, or fish. These proteins provide essential amino acids for muscle development and maintenance."
53
+ elif breed == 'Jack Russels':
54
+ return "When it comes to selecting the best food for a Jack Russell Terrier, it’s important to consider their individual needs, including their age, activity level, and any specific dietary requirements or sensitivities. Look for a high-quality dog food that provides a balanced blend of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. The food should meet the nutritional requirements set by organizations such as the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO). Consider your Jack Russell’s life stage—whether it’s a puppy, adult, or senior dog—and select a food formulated specifically for that age. Each life stage has different nutritional needs, and specialized formulas can cater to those needs accordingly. Jack Russell Terriers are energetic, and active dogs, so a diet rich in high-quality proteins is important. Look for dog foods that list animal-based proteins (such as chicken, turkey, or fish) as the main ingredients. Avoid products that rely heavily on plant-based protein sources. Healthy fats are essential for maintaining your Jack Russell’s skin and coat health, as well as providing a source of energy. Look for recipes that include sources of beneficial fats such as omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish oil or flaxseed) to promote a healthy coat and support overall well-being. Jack Russell Terriers are typically small to medium-sized dogs. If you choose a dry food, make sure the kibble size is appropriate for their mouth size to make it easier for them to chew and digest. Some Jack Russell Terriers may have specific dietary sensitivities or allergies. If you notice any signs of digestive upset, skin issues, or other allergic reactions, consult with your veterinarian to identify potential allergens and consider a limited ingredient diet or specialized formulas."
55
+ elif breed == 'Labradoodle':
56
+ return "Labradoodles are a mixed breed of Labrador Retriever and Poodle, and their dietary requirements can vary based on factors such as size, activity level, and any underlying health conditions. Look for a dog food that contains high-quality protein sources as the main ingredient, such as chicken, beef, or fish. Avoid foods that use fillers or meat by-products. Whole food ingredients are generally preferred over processed ones. Choose a dog food that provides a balanced mix of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. It should meet the nutritional requirements set by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO). Labradoodles can be prone to digestive issues, so opt for a dog food that is easily digestible. Look for formulas that contain high-quality sources of carbohydrates, such as sweet potatoes or brown rice, and dietary fibers for optimal digestion. Labradoodles often have wavy or curly coats so choosing a dog food that includes omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish oil or flaxseed, can support their coat health and skin condition. Labradoodles may have individual sensitivities or allergies to certain grains. Some dogs thrive on grain-free diets, while others do well with grain-inclusive options. "

When choosing a dog food for your Shiba Inu, look for one which contains real animal-based protein sources as the main ingredients. Chicken, beef, fish, or lamb are excellent protein options. Shiba Inus are a small to medium-sized breed, so select a dog food with kibble that is appropriate for their mouth size. This helps with chewing and digestion. To avoid your Shiba Inu gaining weight, it’s important to control their calorie intake. Opt for a dog food that is formulated to meet the energy needs of a moderately active dog, and be mindful of portion sizes. Shiba Inus can suffer from skin allergies, so select dog food that is easily digestible and doesn’t contain common allergens or artificial additives that may cause digestive upset. Look for dog food that includes sources of omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish oil or flaxseed. These fatty acids can promote healthy skin, a shiny coat, and support overall well-being."

+ return "The nutritional requirement depends on the age of your particular husky. Because husky puppies, adults… and seniors each have different nutritional needs. Adult huskies can do well on just about ANY top-rated, nutrient-balanced dog food. However, Husky puppies have a slightly higher (2.2%) risk1 of developing a crippling and permanent form of hip disease a risk which may increase if they’re fed a diet that contains too much calcium (while they’re still growing). And there are OTHER age-related differences, too. For example, Senior huskies need more protein and fewer calories than younger animals."

+ return "Weimaraner dogs are prone to skeletal issues such as hip dysplasia. It’s, therefore, crucial to choose a dog food that has appropriate and balanced levels of calcium and phosphorus to support healthy bone growth. Look for recipes which contain glucosamine and chondroitin. Gastric torsion, also called bloat, affects large chested breeds such as Weimaraner Dogs, it can trigger gastric dilatation and volvulus, or GDV, a potentially deadly condition where the stomach rotates and twists on itself. Feeding two or three smaller meals throughout the day and using a slow feeder bowl, which forces your dog to eat only a few pieces of food at a time, will help prevent this condition. It’s also important not to exercise your dog an hour either before or after meals. A Weimaraner’s diet should be formulated for a large-sized breed with high energy and exercise needs."

It’s, therefore, crucial to choose a dog food that has appropriate and balanced levels of calcium and phosphorus to support healthy bone growth. Look for recipes which contain glucosamine and chondroitin. Healthy fats provide a concentrated source of energy and are essential for maintaining a healthy coat and skin. Look for foods with moderate levels of healthy fats, such as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. They benefit from a diet rich in high-quality animal protein sources such as chicken, beef, or fish, so look for a dog food with named meat protein sources at the top of the ingredient list."

A dog food designed for an adult Yorkie may contain too little calcium for a growing puppy or too little protein and too many calories for a less active older dog.And there are other nutritional differences, too. For example, A Yorkie puppy needs 1.29% leucine (one of 12 essential amino acids) while an adult requires just 0.68% of the exact same nutrient. In comparison, A senior Yorkie benefits from a dog food that contains more protein and fewer calories per serving."
