 What are the requirements of dogs for phosphorus intake
Bichon Frize (certain introduction)

Both phosphorus and calcium cause dogs It is an essential substance for dog bones and teeth. In addition, phosphorus can also protect the regular beating of the dog's heart and the normal operation of the dog's kidney function. It can be said that phosphorus is involved in almost all psychochemical reactions in the dog's body. Every parent knows that if dogs are deficient in calcium, they may suffer from rickets and osteoporosis, but if dogs are deficient in phosphorus, what symptoms will they show?

Phosphorus deficiency in dogs can lead to loss of appetite and extreme heat. Under normal circumstances, dogs are less likely to be phosphorus deficient. There are two main reasons for phosphorus deficiency in dogs: 1. Insufficient phosphorus content in food. Owners who feed their dogs may ignore the ratio of nutrients their dogs need, so dogs are prone to phosphorus deficiency. 2. Supplement appropriate amount of calcium. In order to avoid calcium deficiency in dogs, many owners will supplement their dogs with calcium. However, if the calcium content in the dog's body is too high, the metabolism and use of phosphorus, magnesium, zinc and other substances will be disrupted. If the phosphorus deficiency is caused by this reason, the veterinarian will advise the owner to stop calcium supplementation first.

Adult dogs need to supplement 200 mg of phosphorus per kilogram of body weight per day, while growing dogs need double the amount, that is, 400 mg. If the dog has been eating dog food as its main food, the owner does not need to worry about the dog being phosphorus deficient, because the phosphorus content in the dog food can fully meet the dog’s needs, and the calcium to phosphorus ratio in the dog food is also very high. Reasonably, dogs will not interfere with their absorption of other nutrients due to excessive calcium content in the body.

Naturally, if the phosphorus content in the dog's body is too high, it will cause various problems, such as disrupting the dog's metabolism and use of calcium and magnesium, causing the calcium in the bones to be released into the blood, thereby forming bone formation. Loose quality, etc.
