Vitamin B3, aka Niacin, is good for controlling the dog’s glucose levels and converts the duck meat’s protein, fat and carbohydrates into energy that the dog can use. Vitamin B6, also called Pyridoxine, aids cardiovascular health and supports a dog’s energy metabolism.

Duck also contains antioxidants that help boost the immune system like zinc and selenium, which also aids the maintenance of a dog’s normal thyroid function. The omega-3 fatty acids in duck meat help your dog maintain a healthy coat.
