It includes herbaceous or woody plants with a very aromatic scent. Thyme has been used by the Greeks and Romans as a medicinal herb for lung diseases, rheumatism, paralysis, stomach cramps, tumors, headaches, colic, and nervous weaknesses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe medicinal properties of thyme are confirmed by the high values of vitamin K it contains. In addition, thyme also contains a lot of iron, as well as the minerals calcium and manganese. It also contains the amino acid tryptophan and a significant amount of fiber.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThyme is anti-inflammatory and has a powerful antibacterial and antifungal effect. In addition, it stimulates the production of white blood cells and strengthens the immune system.

The apple grows in temperate regions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDietary fiber has a versatile effect on the digestive tract. It is able to absorb moisture, making stools soft and smooth. Dietary fiber also increases the volume in the intestines. This not only stimulates the function of the bowels but also ensures a thorough removal of waste products.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eApples are packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber. In addition, apples are rich in pectin. Pectin is a soluble fiber that helps support healthy gut flora. It also contributes to the palatability of the kibble, and apples are low in calories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRich in vitamins A and C.

There is even evidence that the banana was cultivated in New Guinea about 7,000 years ago. The name is derived from the word 'banaana' from the language of the Wolof people.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBananas are rich in vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, C, and B11 (folic acid) and the minerals potassium, magnesium, iron, and zinc. The natural antioxidant, vitamin C, can strengthen immunity. Vitamin B11, or folic acid, can support the immune system and contribute to a well-functioning nervous system. It can also reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Potassium can also help lower blood pressure in dogs with high blood pressure, magnesium can help relax muscles and promote bone growth. In addition, bananas contain many good fibers and promote more good bacteria in the intestines.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePuppy, Adult, or Senior?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo help you make the right choice between our Sheltie dog food variants, you can use the following guidelines.

For the first step, feed 25% Yourdog and 75% of the old dog food. The dog can get used to this for two days. Then, feed 50% Yourdog and 50% of the old dog food. It is important to let the dog get used to this for another two or three days. After that, mix 75% Yourdog and 25% of the old dog food. The dog is now almost completely transitioned to Yourdog. Do this for 2 days. At your discretion, you can then start feeding 100% Yourdog Sheltie dog food.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage Advice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter opening the Yourdog package, the food is exposed to oxygen, moisture, and light, which can affect its shelf life and taste.
