Nutrition

The **nutrition of the Lagotto Romagnolo** must be high-quality and adapted to their activity level. Given their energetic nature, they require a diet rich in protein and healthy fats to maintain their musculature and provide the necessary energy. A premium dry food with natural ingredients and no unnecessary fillers is recommended. Quantities should be adjusted to their age, weight, activity level, and health status, following manufacturer guidelines and veterinary advice. Dividing the daily ration into two meals can aid digestion and prevent bloating. Some Lagottos may have digestive sensitivities, so a hypoallergenic or single-protein diet might be beneficial. Constant access to fresh, clean water is essential.
