What’s the best dog food for Russell Terriers?
Meet the Russell Terrier
The Russell Terrier packs more energy per pound than almost any breed alive. These fearless, tireless little terriers were bred to bolt foxes from their dens, and they bring that explosive energy and determination to every aspect of life. Intelligent, athletic, and endlessly entertaining, Russells demand an owner, and a diet, that can keep up.
What Russell Terriers Need From Their Food
The Russell Terrier packs extreme energy output into a small body, which demands calorie-dense, nutrient-rich food that punches above their size. Three priorities define their diet:
- Calorie-dense, high-quality protein for lean muscle and the relentless energy this breed is known for
- Essential fats and oils for coat health and the skin integrity a small, active breed depends on
- Appropriate kibble size for easy eating and the dental health small, long-lived breeds require
