Pure Kangaroo Wet Dog Food (Australia)

Pure Kangaroo is exactly what it says: 100% kangaroo meat and offal, nothing else. Kangaroo is a novel protein almost no UK dog has eaten, which makes it one of the safest choices for dogs with food allergies.

Because the tin contains a single protein and no soy, grain or vegetable additives, it's ideal for elimination diets, and for sensitive dogs that need to know exactly what's in the bowl. Essential vitamins and minerals make it a complete food.

Why kangaroo?

A food sensitivity is usually a reaction to a protein the dog has met before, which is why chicken and beef are so often the culprits: they are in nearly everything. Kangaroo is about as far from a British dog's usual diet as it is possible to get, and that unfamiliarity is exactly the point. It is also naturally lean, which tends to suit dogs carrying a bit more than they should.

About Happy Dog

Happy Dog is a German family brand made in Wehringen, Bavaria by Interquell, with pet-food expertise dating back to 1965. The Pure range follows one rule: one protein, nothing else. No soy, no grain, no vegetable fillers, no hidden meats. That sounds austere, and it is, deliberately. It exists so that a vet or an owner running an exclusion diet knows precisely what has gone into the bowl.

Questions, answered

Is this a complete food or a topper?
Complete and balanced, with added vitamins and minerals. Feed it as the whole meal or mix it through a dry food.

Which dogs is it for?
Dogs with food allergies, itchy skin or sensitive stomachs, and any dog on a vet-directed elimination diet where a genuinely novel protein is needed.

Is kangaroo lean?
Yes, it is a naturally lean red meat, which can suit dogs who need to watch their weight while still eating properly.

How do I switch my dog onto it?
Gradually, over about seven days, mixing a little more in each day. A slow change is kinder to a sensitive stomach and makes any reaction easier to spot.

How much should I feed?
Start with the guide on the tin and adjust to keep your dog at a healthy weight. Always leave fresh water down.

How should I store an opened tin?
Cover it, keep it in the fridge and use within about two days. Serve at room temperature rather than fridge-cold.

When will it arrive?
Dispatched within 1 to 2 working days, with free UK delivery on orders over £30.
