Tips

Note: As with any new food introduction, start with small amounts to monitor your dog's reaction, especially if they have a sensitive stomach or allergies. Adjustments to the recipe can be made based on your dog's specific nutritional requirements and any dietary advice provided by your veterinarian or our FitPetGo nutritionist.
