What is the primary protein source?

Are the packaging bags recyclable?

My dog has a sensitive stomach. Will this food help?

Yes, this food is designed with sensitive dogs in mind. It's grain-free, hypoallergenic, and made with natural, easy-to-digest ingredients like chicken and sweet potato, which can help support digestive health.

Does this food contain any artificial ingredients or fillers?

Troubleshooting

My dog is reluctant to eat the new food.

Gradually introduce the new food by mixing it with increasing amounts over 5-7 days. Start with 25% new food and 75% old food, slowly transitioning. You can also try mixing it with Forthglade complete wet food to enhance palatability.

My dog has an upset stomach or loose stools after switching food.

Ensure you transitioned the food slowly over a week. Sudden changes can upset digestion. If symptoms persist beyond a few days or worsen, consult your veterinarian. Check that you are feeding the correct portion size according to your dog's weight and activity level.

The food doesn't seem fresh or has an unusual smell.

Check the 'best before' date on the packaging. Ensure the bag has been stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sealed properly after each use. If the food appears discolored or smells rancid despite proper storage, discard it and open a new bag.
