To solve this problem as a basis we took
tried and tested in practice "the law of the surface"
Rubner.
This "law" is widely used in many countries with
the organization of feeding the dogs and, in the opinion of the majority
canine is the most correct.
In accordance with the "law of the surface," Rubner,
classify the dogs to the proper feeding
reasonable taking into account their size (size). By law, Rubner
nora supporting dog food depends on the size
body surface.
In dogs, the need for energy (food) is proportional to
body surface. Body surface area per unit mass
relatively higher in small dogs, because of this small
animals lose relatively more heat than large
dogs and, therefore, they are more intense in the body
processes of heat generation (the oxidation of nutrients
food).
