Hana kāu Labrador i mea ʻai? Ua hiki i nā mea noiʻi ke ʻike i kahi kīnā genetic e hoʻomāhuahua nui ai kekahi Labrador Retrievers i ka meaʻai. Akā, ʻaʻole ia manaʻo he momona kāu ʻīlio!
Inā ʻai nui ʻoe, e māʻona ʻoe. Akā, māʻona koke kekahi, a ʻai kekahi a ʻai a paʻa ka ʻōpū. Ua ʻike mākou mai nā kānaka a me nā ʻīlio.
Ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo Labrador Retrievers ma luna o ka awelika ʻai ʻai a me ka pōʻino, ʻoi aku ka nui o ke kaumaha. Ua hiki i nā mea noiʻi ke hoʻoholo i ke kumu o ka makemake ʻīlio: He hemahema ia i ka gene POMC, he mea nui ia no ka hana ʻana i nā mea ʻelele e hōʻailona ana "Ua piha au!". ʻAʻole kēlā me kēia Labrador e lawe i kēia kīnā genetic, akā ʻike pinepine ʻia i nā ʻelele kaumaha o kēia ʻano a me nā ʻīlio i aʻo ʻia e like me nā ʻīlio lawelawe a alakaʻi. ʻO nā Labradors me ka POMC gene defect ka mea i hoʻoikaika nui ʻia e hana no ka meaʻai a hiki ke aʻo ʻia e like me ia.
Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole ʻo kēlā me kēia Labrador me kahi kīnā POMC ke kaumaha. ʻO ke kumu koʻikoʻi o ka momona ʻo ia nō ka mea nāna ka ʻīlio no ka mea hoʻoholo ʻo ia i kona hoʻopiha piha ʻana i ke kīʻaha meaʻai a me ka hāʻawi pinepine ʻana i ka noi ʻana o kāna hoa ʻehā wāwae. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻoi aku ka kūpaʻa o nā mea nona ka Labrador makemake nui ma mua o nā haku a me nā haku wahine. Eia nō naʻe, hiki ke ʻalo ʻia ka momona a hiki i kahi Labrador me ka POMC gene defect hiki ke noho a liʻiliʻi paha, e like me ka mea i ʻike ʻia ma ka hapa nui o nā ʻīlio lawelawe. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, he maʻalahi ke paipai iā ia e hoʻoikaika nui me ka meaʻai liʻiliʻi. A inā makemake ʻoe e ʻai, ʻaʻole ʻoe e hoʻohuli i kou ihu i ka meaʻai haʻahaʻa-calorie…
No nā ʻōlelo kōkua e pili ana i ka mālama ʻana i kāu ʻīlio wīwī a i hope paha, e ʻike i ka ʻike meaʻai a Kauka Hölter (e nānā ma lalo).
