can i feed a puppy rice?

Answers:
i feed my dogs boiled rice along with cooked chicken of fish. its good for them. but they only have this maybe once every 2weeks for a treat. you also need to feed a gud quality puppy food as well to give him/her the correct diet. scrambled eggs are also good to add to your puppys meals. if your talking about rice pudding thats also something else thats fine and they enjoy. try to stick with a good puppy food and maybe the odd treat of the rest.

I feed my dog rice cooked with chicken broth if he has an upset stomach, but never only rice.

Yes. i won't harm them. my dog always eats rice

Sure, brown is better than white rice, but why are you asking? Are you using it as the pups main diet? A treat? or are you trying a RAW diet?

Suggestion. stick with high grade, pre-made dog foods and treats until you know what is and isnt bad for dogs. Dont take chances when it comes to health :-)

yes, absolutely. Rice is actually a very good source of energy for dogs. Just don't feed him too much. a puppy's stomach is very fragile and too much of anything will make him sick. So if you are feeding him rice for every single meal, i highly suggest that you try buying a puppy chow formula. it will be easier on his stomach and will give him a complex mixture of nutrients that he will not get by eating rice alone. These questions can all be answered by your veterenarian. Hopefully you have seen a vet with your new dog and if you haven't, please do so a.s.a.p.

Yes you can but it had no nutritional value whatsoever. YOu can add chicken and shredded carrots ot make a fantastic meal though.

---

Yes you can but only a small amount. I usually mix it in with my dogs regular food.
