Veganuary: A Vegetarian Diet For Your Dog

It's quite common these days to come across individuals opting for a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. Surprisingly, this trend isn't limited to humans alone; an increasing number of people are extending this dietary choice to their canine companions. Reasons can be: animal welfare, sustainability or if the dog suffers from certain allergies.

Veganuary; the month when people are encouraged to eat vegan, is also the ideal time to introduce your dog to a vegetarian diet.

Veganuary is a campaign that takes place every January and invites people to eat vegan for the whole month. During Veganuary, it is all about making people more aware of how our food choices affect animal welfare, the environment and our health. Many individuals view Veganuary as a chance to make a positive contribution to both animal welfare and the environment.

But what about dogs? Can they also benefit from a vegetarian or vegan diet? Certainly, but it's crucial to select the appropriate food and ensure your dog receives all the necessary nutrients.

When considering a vegetarian diet for your dog, it is important to look carefully at your dog's needs. Dogs are carnivores by nature, but they can digest plant-based foods well due to evolution. Dogs need certain nutrients that used to come mainly from meat. For example: protein, B-vitamins and iron. If you opt for a vegetarian diet also for your dog, make sure the food contains all the important nutrients.

Thankfully, there are numerous top-notch vegetarian dog food available in the current market, specifically designed to fulfil the nutritional requirements of dogs.

Therefore, it is important to think carefully about your dog’s needs. Yarrah also provides food with organic chicken as the primary food source.
