Chicken Dog Food & Treats

Yes, chicken dog food is an excellent choice for dogs. It's a highly digestible source of protein that supports muscle growth, boosts energy, and promotes overall health. Rich in essential nutrients like amino acids, chicken is a great option for dogs of all breeds and life stages.

Don't forget, if switching to a new diet, even with easily digestible proteins such as chicken, switching still takes time and should be a gradual change. Here's a helpful blog on changing your dogs diet to help give advice around a successful switch.

While chicken is generally a safe and nutritious option for most dogs, some may develop sensitivities or allergies. If your dog shows signs of discomfort, such as itching or digestive upset, it’s best to consult with a vet and explore alternative protein sources. However, chicken remains one of the most commonly tolerated proteins to include in your dogs diet.

On average the calorie content of our complete wet recipes is 150-160 Kcal per 100g. The calorie content varies depending on the meat used in the recipe.

Our white fish recipes are at the lowest end of the calorie scale. Each recipe will contain detailed nutritional information both on the product page and product when sent.
