There are so many buzzwords thrown around the dog-owner community. The jargon and terminology can be overwhelming. Casual chats on dog walks can turn into heated discussions all about dog food. Here at the Innocent Hound, we proudly make single protein dog food. But why should you switch to a single protein dog food?

What is single protein dog food?

A single protein dog food contains only one animal source of protein. For example, our British beef stew contains only beef, our lamb casserole contains only lamb meat, and so on. This type of dog food is sometimes known as ‘one-protein dog food’ or ‘single-source protein dog food’.

What are the benefits of single protein dog food?

The most significant benefit of single protein dog food is that it allows us to track what our dogs are consuming quickly. If your dog suddenly has an upset stomach, single-protein dog food will enable you to identify the issue more efficiently.

In the case of dual, triple or even quadruple protein source food, it becomes much more challenging to identify the element causing the dog to have issues.

Is the Innocent Hound single meat dog food?

We are proud to say that all our dog food is made with a single protein. We work with exceptional British meat suppliers who provide the best ingredients, allowing us to make the best dog food possible. That’s why we often get fantastic feedback on dog food reviews.

Other benefits from the Innocent Hound

Our dog food has many benefits, not just the single protein attribute!

• Our bespoke air-drying process keeps nutrients in the meat, giving similar benefits as raw dog food.
• As the food is air-dried, it doesn’t need to be placed in the refrigerator, eliminating potential storage complexities.
• Our food is grain-free, which is desirable when comparing dog food information and ingredient lists.

How do I change my dog food?

If you’re ready to change your dog food to one of our delicious single protein options at the Innocent Hound, we welcome you to the pack!

One dog food online resource we recommend is our feeding guide, which tells you how much to give your dog depending on its size and age. In addition, as any good dog food advisor or vet would suggest, gradually introduce new food over 4-5 days so as not to upset their stomachs.
