ORGANIC DRY FOOD FOR DOGS
If you don't want to expose your four-legged friend to meat and bone meal of unknown origin or chemical additives, but still don't have the time to cook and make the food yourself, then it makes sense to switch to organic dry dog food. As the same regulations must be adhered to during production as for organic food produced for us humans, you can be sure that you are giving your dog only the best.
The ingredients in organic dry food, whether dry or wet, all come from species-appropriate husbandry of the animals used for this purpose. In addition, organic dry food does not contain any artificial additives. In plain language, this means that the animals used for the organic dry dog food are not given any antibiotics, as is unfortunately common in factory farming. Hormones are also completely avoided in the breeding of the animals for use in organic dry dog food, and no flavour enhancers, artificial flavourings, preservatives, colourings or emulsifiers are added to the organic food. As no pesticides are used in the cultivation of the vegetables used in the organic dry dog food, the finished product does not contain any traces of these either.

Dry food - which dog to feed it to
Dry food is suitable for both puppies and adult dogs. If the youngest dogs are already accustomed to the food, they can be fed exclusively on it. An older dog that has already been accustomed to home-cooked food or wet food sometimes finds it more difficult to get used to it, as the four-legged friends have become accustomed to the flavour. In addition, older dogs often have problems with their teeth and find it harder to eat dry dog food, especially if the pieces are very large. You can either soften the food or switch to wet food.
Feeding dry food correctly
With organic dry food for dogs and dry food in general, it is important to pay attention to the correct dosage. This is because pressed food is far more nutritious than wet food. It always depends on the age, weight and size of the dog being fed. The recommended intake is usually stated on the packaging. It is very important, not only with organic dry food for dogs, that dry food still swells in the stomach; if too much food is given, it can quickly lead to "overeating" and the dog will break out again. You should also always have enough water available, because your pet needs it even more when fed dry food than it does with wet food.

FAQ
Is organic dry food suitable for dogs with allergies?
Allergies in dogs are characterised by digestive problems, redness or itching. Carbohydrates or proteins are responsible for this, which must be identified first. The extent to which the organic dry dog food is suitable for allergy sufferers depends on the additives used. However, the fact is that organic dry dog food does not contain incompatible chemicals, antibiotics or hormones, so that organic dry dog food is definitely healthier for every animal than conventional dry food.
Is organic dry food better for my dog?
Whether you choose wet or dry food for your dog is entirely up to you. Because both have their advantages and disadvantages. Dry food is particularly suitable if the food remains in the bowl for longer. It also has a longer shelf life than wet food. As far as the organic aspect is concerned, any organic food, whether wet or dry, is more suitable for your pet than conventional food, as the ingredients are generally better tolerated and easier to digest. In addition, no chemical substances can enter your dog's bloodstream and organs via the food and the diet is therefore healthier.
How high is the meat content in organic dry food?
Of course, this depends on the manufacturer, but you can assume that the meat content in organic dry dog food is around 45%. This includes both muscle meat and offal from the slaughtered animals.
What are the benefits of organic dry dog food?
The great advantage of dry dog food labelled as organic is that the composition is strictly monitored. No chemicals or other additives are allowed in the food. In addition to the hormones and antibiotics often administered to slaughtered animals, this also includes pesticides that could adhere to utilised vegetables, fruit and other plants. This is why we only use organic products that do not contain these additives, both for meat and vegetables. In addition, all other additives that would otherwise end up in the food, such as flavour enhancers, are completely avoided. This means that your dog only gets natural ingredients with the organic dry food.
How much organic dry food should I give my dog?
You can feed your dog the organic dry food permanently. As it contains all the important trace elements, vitamins and other nutrients that your dog needs for a healthy diet, it is perfectly possible to feed your dog dry food alone. For the correct dosage, it is important to administer it according to the feeding recommendation on the packaging. It depends on the contents, the additives and the weight, size and age of your four-legged friend as to how much dry food they need per day. Some dog owners feed twice a day, others only once, and organic dry dog food is particularly suitable if your pet only gets its food from the bag during daily training.
