Nope, this is not about feeding your dog a strict diet of green beans only. Here's at it works: You get a can of green beans and mix some of that up with your dog's own regular food.
The benefit of this is keeping your dog full in between meals. If you have a dog that's anything like mine, she's always hungry and looking for anything to snack on. She stays particularly full and well fed when I give her some green beans with her food. She's quite satisfied, at least until the next meal.
This trick isn't something you have to do for all dogs. But this is really nice for these dogs that could eat more than they should at one meal. If you decide to try this, remember that only a small amount of green beans per meal will do. You don't have to go filling your pantry with tons of cans. Store the leftover green beans in the can in the fridge, until the next day.
Keep track of how much you are giving your dog by
measuring it. Be consistent: Give her the same amount every day once she's accustomed to it. But start small. Just slip in a little tiny bit, then increase the amount every day.
Go ahead and stock up on green beans if you see a great sale. But remember, you won't be going through them that fast, unless you have a huge dog that can eat a huge helping of food at one time.
The amount you feed her, depends of course on how much she typically eats and her size. Another thing: No salt. Do your best to find green beans that don't have salt added in.
The best advantage here with this diet dog food plan is that your dog will be able to get back to a normal, healthy weight. Which means more energy and good health. Go for the green.
