Which component is considered the equivalent of 'nature’s multivitamins' in a foundational diet for the WPG?
Answer
Nutrient-dense offal
A diet designed to support the robust nature of the Wirehaired Pointing Griffon should be structured around several key elements derived from whole prey sources. Among these, nutrient-dense offal—the internal organs—plays a crucial role because these components naturally supply a wide spectrum of vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients that function similarly to a comprehensive multivitamin supplement provided by nature. This is complemented by high-quality animal protein for muscle maintenance, healthy fats for brain function, bone for skeletal structure integrity (calcium and phosphorus balance), and a minimal inclusion of select plant matter primarily for necessary fiber and antioxidants.
