Can my dog eat chicken and rice dog food every day?

<div class="metafield-rich_text_field"><p>Yes! Our chicken & rice Dry Dog Food is a complete and balanced recipe, which means it contains all the essential nutrients your dog needs to thrive every day. It’s made with high-quality chicken for protein, rice for easy-to-digest energy, and enriched with gut-friendly pre-, pro- and postbiotics to support overall wellbeing. So whether you’re feeding it daily or as part of a mixed feeding routine with wet food, your dog’s in safe (and satisfied) paws.</p></div>

What are prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics?

<div class="metafield-rich_text_field"><p>Great question! These are all gut-friendly ingredients we use to enrich our dry food recipes and support your pet’s gut health, which plays a big role in their digestion, immunity, and overall wellbeing. Prebiotics are types of fibre that feed the good bacteria already living in your pet’s gut, like Slippery Elm and Inulin. Probiotics are the live, friendly bacteria themselves, which help to balance the gut microbiome and crowd out bad bacteria. The specific probiotic we use is Enterococcus Faecium, known for its poop-perfecting qualities. Finally, postbiotics are the beneficial compounds that probiotics naturally produce, which help support gut lining, immunity, and nutrient absorption.</p></div>

What can I expect from natural pet food?

<div class="metafield-rich_text_field"><p>Our recipes are made with minimally processed, natural ingredients. Because we use natural ingredients and avoid over-processing, you might notice slight variations in size, texture, and smell from batch to batch - this is totally normal! Occasionally, you may also come across small oat fibres, small bone fragments, or visible pieces of carrots and other ingredients. Rest assured, these are perfectly safe for your furry friends and are part of what makes Scrumbles both tasty and wholesome for them. If you have any queries, don’t hesitate to drop us a message.</p></div>

You can decant it into an airtight container for extra crunch-preserving power.</p></div>

Why are some of your recipes grain free and others gluten free?

<div class="metafield-rich_text_field"><p>We know every floof is different, so we offer both grain-free and gluten-free recipes to suit different dietary needs. Grain-free options avoid all grains completely, making them ideal for pets with grain sensitivities. Our gluten-free recipes include gentle, non-wheat grains like rice, which can provide slow-release energy for other floofs.</p></div>
