FAQs

What age can my puppy start eating this food?

This Forthglade Cold Pressed Turkey Dry Dog Food is suitable for puppies aged 2 months and older, as well as small-sized adult dogs.

Is this food suitable for adult small-breed dogs?

Yes, it is specifically tailored for both puppies and small-sized adult dogs, providing optimal nutrition and appropriately sized pellets for small mouths.

Why is 'cold pressed' better?

The cold-pressed method involves gently pressing ingredients at lower temperatures, which helps to retain more natural vitamins, minerals, and enzymes compared to traditional high-temperature extrusion methods, making the food highly digestible.

What are the benefits of a grain-free diet for dogs?

A grain-free diet can be beneficial for dogs with grain sensitivities or allergies, helping to reduce digestive upset, itching, and skin irritations. It focuses on nutrient-dense ingredients like turkey and vegetables.

How should I store the food once opened?

To maintain freshness, store the food in its original bag, sealed tightly, or transfer it to an airtight container. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and pests.

How do I transition my dog to this new food?

To avoid digestive upset, transition your dog to this new food gradually over a period of 5-7 days. Start by mixing a small amount of the new food with their current food, slowly increasing the proportion of Forthglade food each day until they are fully on the new diet.

Does this food contain any artificial ingredients?

No, this Forthglade Cold Pressed dry dog food contains no artificial derivatives, cheap fillers, or other unnecessary artificial ingredients. It focuses on natural, wholesome components.

Troubleshooting

My dog won't eat the new food.

Gradually introduce the new Forthglade food over 5-7 days by mixing it with their old food, slowly increasing the proportion of new food each day. This allows their digestive system to adjust and can prevent pickiness.

My dog has an upset stomach after switching food.

An upset stomach can occur if the food change is too sudden. Revert to a higher proportion of the old food and introduce the new food even more slowly, over 10-14 days. If symptoms persist, consult your veterinarian.

My dog's stools have changed.

Slight changes in stool consistency or frequency can be normal when transitioning to a new food, especially due to dietary fiber differences. If changes are severe (e.g., diarrhea, blood), reduce the new food intake and consult your vet. Ensure your dog is drinking enough water.
