Grain-Free Food: Tasty Variety Without Any Grain for Your Dog

Grain-Free Food: Rabbit and Turkey Instead of Wheat

Some dogs don't tolerate grain very well, while others simply enjoy new flavours. Grain-free food does without wheat, maize and the like and relies on other sources of carbohydrates instead. Here you'll find dry food from Emmas in two tasty varieties: rabbit under the name “Mal was Anderes” and turkey as “Feinspitz” for fussy dogs who like to choose.

Two Varieties for Different Tastes

Rabbit is a fairly unusual meat for many dogs. That makes it interesting if your dog reacts to common meats such as beef or chicken, or simply needs some variety. Turkey has a mild taste and usually goes down well with picky eaters. Both varieties are suitable as a daily main food for adult dogs. If your dog tolerates both well, you can also alternate between them.

When Grain-Free Makes Sense

For most dogs, grain is not a problem. Feeding grain-free is mainly worthwhile if your dog has a proven reaction to grain or if you want as few ingredients as possible for a sensitive stomach. Owners who prefer a meat-focused diet also like to choose it. When switching, mix the new food into the old one step by step over 7 to 10 days.

Frequently asked questions

Is grain-free food healthier for my dog?
Not automatically. For dogs without an intolerance, easily digestible grain is perfectly fine. Grain-free food is a good alternative if your dog doesn't tolerate grain well or you want to keep the ingredient list deliberately short.

My dog has stopped eating its food. Will a new variety help?
Sometimes, yes, because many dogs respond to a new flavour such as rabbit or turkey with a fresh appetite. Still, don't switch all the time, or your dog may quickly become fussy. If it stops eating altogether or seems listless, have it examined by your vet.

Can I mix grain-free food with regular dog food?
That's fine as long as your dog has no grain intolerance. If it does, feed strictly grain-free, including treats and chews.
