Product Information

Full details

This guide is for dog owners seeking a high-quality, grain-free wet food option, particularly for dogs with sensitive stomachs. The key benefit is its natural, protein-rich composition with added slippery elm for digestive support. A potential consideration is that it's a multi-variety pack, which may not suit dogs who prefer a single flavor. Scrumbles Complete Grain Free Natural Wet Dog Food Meat Selection is a UK-made, complete and balanced wet dog food featuring 70% meat content across three popular varieties: Chicken, Turkey, and Duck. It is formulated to be grain-free, hypoallergenic, and free from added sugar, salt, and artificial additives, making it suitable for dogs with dietary sensitivities.

FAQs

Is this food suitable for puppies?

This food is formulated as a complete and balanced meal for adult dogs. It is not specifically designed for puppies, who have different nutritional requirements. Consult your veterinarian for puppy-specific food recommendations.

How much food should I give my dog?

Feeding guidelines vary based on your dog's size, age, activity level, and metabolism. Refer to the feeding guide on the product packaging or consult your veterinarian for a personalized recommendation.

What does 'single source protein' mean?

Single source protein means that each recipe uses only one type of meat (e.g., chicken, turkey, or duck) as its primary protein source, which can be beneficial for dogs with sensitivities to multiple protein types.

Can I feed this food to my dog if they don't have a sensitive stomach?

Yes, absolutely. While it's excellent for dogs with sensitive stomachs due to its ingredients like slippery elm and grain-free formulation, it's a high-quality, complete, and balanced food suitable for any adult dog.

What is slippery elm and why is it included?

Slippery elm is a natural ingredient derived from the inner bark of the slippery elm tree. It contains mucilage, which coats and soothes the digestive tract, aiding in digestion and helping to alleviate symptoms of stomach upset.

How long can I keep the food after opening?

Once opened, refrigerate the food in a sealed container and use it within 48 hours to maintain freshness and safety.

Troubleshooting

Dog is reluctant to eat the food.

Ensure the food is served at room temperature, as cold food can be less appealing. Try mixing a small amount with a familiar food or a small amount of warm water to enhance aroma. Gradually introduce the food over 7-10 days to allow your dog to adjust.

Dog experiences digestive upset (e.g., loose stools) after switching.

Although formulated for sensitive stomachs, individual dogs can react differently. Ensure you followed the gradual transition guidelines. If upset persists, consult your veterinarian to rule out other causes or discuss alternative options.

Opened food smells off or appears discolored.

Opened food should be refrigerated and used within 48 hours. If there are any signs of spoilage, such as an unusual odor or appearance, discard the food immediately to prevent illness.
