In addition to being an aromatic and tempting choice for picky eaters, can dog food is also a great way to ensure your dog is getting optimal nutrition and hydration during mealtimes. Characterised by their high moisture and meat content, K9 Natural can dog food offers a complete and balanced...
“How much should I be feeding my cat or dog” is probably one of the most common questions I get asked during a consultation. Unfortunately, the answer depends on a multitude of factors and is highly specific for an individual pet. However, understanding the general nutritional needs of our pets as...
When it comes to providing the best nutrition for our beloved canine and feline family members, the debate between wet food and dry food often leaves owners in a quandary. Whilst there are benefits to both dietary formats, understanding their nuances is critical in making an informed decision for your...
Every dog is unique, so to make sure they’re living their best and healthiest life, it makes sense to start with their food bowl. Depending on their breed, size, activity level and age, your dog will have their own unique nutrition needs - and don’t forget that as their life...
Canine dental disease affects 80% of dogs over the age of three. With brushing the dog’s teeth becoming routine in many households, it is no secret dental health is an important component in a dog’s overall wellbeing. But can one diet put the toothbrush away for good?
Here at K9 Natural, we take pride in our transparency when it comes to the nutritional jigsaw puzzle that is pet food. In this blog, we focus on how our nutritional jigsaw puzzle stacks up by answering some of our most frequently asked questions.
Technology has quickly made its way into every aspect of our lives – and although we might not often consider it, the same goes for our four-legged friends. Don’t think it stops at automatic cat-flaps and tennis ball throwers, though. The worldwide movement toward healthier alternatives in pet nutrition has...
Picture this: cattle grazing on lush green grass in open paddocks, wandering as they please, frolicking in the sunshine and daisies… okay, we’re getting a bit cheesy here, but that really is a pretty accurate snapshot of a cow’s life in New Zealand. We pride ourselves on healthy, happy cows...
Simply put, green tripe is a superfood for dogs. Tripe is the nutrient-rich stomach lining of an animal – in this case either lamb or beef – and the ‘green’ in front simply means it isn’t bleached or processed in any way.
Just like us, a healthy and happy dog needs a balanced diet including all the essential vitamins, minerals and fibre. A high quality diet is essential for their health and to avoid illness and disease. While this all makes sense, it can be very difficult to tell the difference between a...
There’s more to salmon than meets your pet’s tongue. We’ve long known our New Zealand king salmon is delicious (our customers have empty bowl evidence), but it also happens to be great at keeping inflammation at bay.
You probably know from experience that if you feed your dog the same meal three times a day, seven days a week, they’re not going to turn it down. And it’s easy to just put the same flavour in the cart when you’re running low. That said, dogs actually love...
In the human world, it is fair to say we are currently clasped in the grips of a protein obsession. Where ‘sugar free’ and ‘low fat’ used to dominate the food-marketing scene, it is now hard to miss the ‘with added protein’ plastered on everything from breakfast cereals to pizza dough and...
It’s a thing that looms large in the daily lives of dog owners. We’d rather not think about it, but we have to. We’d like to turn our back and stride confidently away, but common decency, multiple bylaws and a deathly stare from fellow walkers means there is no way...
