Description

Short-headed dog food for improving chewing power and manufacturing method thereof

The present invention relates to a dog food for brachycephalic dogs and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a dog food for brachycephalic dogs for improving masticatory power that is suitable for the oral structure of brachycephalic dogs and is easy to consume and easy to masticate to enable healthy rearing. and a method for producing the same.

In general, dogs are classified into long-headed, medium-headed, and short-headed breeds according to the shape of the skull.

The long-headed breed has a narrow base of the skull and a very long snout. In mesocephalic, the base of the skull and muzzle are equal in length. Brachycephalic, on the other hand, has a short, broad, and round skull.

Brachycephalic dogs include Park Seo-jong and British Bulldogs.

Brachycephaly, apart from causing gingival hyperplasia and gingival problems such as overgrowth of milk and permanent teeth, breathing problems, and occlusion insufficiency, is associated with stomach and intestinal problems in chewing and picking up feed. And/or it also causes problems that can lead to coordination disorders.

The problem is that brachycephalic dogs have shorter maxillae than mandibles, so their upper and lower incisors cannot mesh together, making it difficult to pick up food.

Also, in the region of the premolars and molars, the maxilla is wider than the maxilla of other dogs, which encourages swallowing of food without chewing.

These brachycephalic dogs are stressed by the difficulty they have in picking up their food, and lack of food chewing results in them eating too fast, which can choke the dog, leading to digestive problems and gum disease. cause
