Our Insect Food for dogs– a novel source of protein for a globally conscious future

This carefully composed dog food “Insect Happiness” combines high biological value with great taste. High-quality insect protein with broccoli, apricots, and coconut flakes combines sustainability, digestibility, and high-quality enjoyment in a balanced menu. It is aimed at dog owners who want to take responsibility—for their four-legged friends and for our planet. A new generation of dog nutrition begins with a conscious decision.

The advantages at a glance:

• High-quality, novel protein > Hermetia illucens
• Good digestibility
• Mineral source > Insects (especially larvae) naturally contain: calcium, iron, zinc, and magnesium
• Healthy fatty acids > Insects contain lauric acid and polyunsaturated fatty acids
• Hypoallergenic – low allergy risk, as the protein source is unknown to most dogs
• Suitable for exclusion diets
• Less resource consumption
• Relief for factory farming
• Promotion of the circular economy
• Naturally gently cooked
• According to our original recipe
• Free from colorants, flavorings, and fillers
• Free from attractants
• Free from grain and gluten
• Rich in essential amino acids:

1. Lysine → important for growth and the immune system
2. Methionine & cysteine → for skin and coat
3. Threonine → supports intestinal health
4. Tryptophan → precursor to serotonin

• Ideal for sensitive and weight-conscious dogs
• to support nutrition-related diseases, such as giardia
• low in purines – therefore also suitable as kidney food or for a kidney diet in cases of kidney disease, such as kidney failure, renal insufficiency, and urinary stones. nbsp;Supportive in cases of pancreatitis, also suitable for arthritic complaints. Dogs suffering from leishmaniasis and being treated with the drug allopurinol must be fed a purine-free diet.

The purine values of our menus are calculated in a certified laboratory—this costs money, but it provides certainty. Some manufacturers calculate these values using a food table—free of charge, but inaccurately.

Our Insect Happiness is a hypoallergenic menu that is also ideal for sensitive dogs. Many dogs today suffer from so-called food intolerances. They react to common types of meat such as chicken, turkey, or beef, as well as grains, soy, or dairy products. However, the binders, fillers, and flavor enhancers that are often used (especially in dry food) can also cause problems. The symptoms of food intolerance are varied—for example, stomach problems or gastrointestinal complaints, frequent smacking of the lips, vomiting, nausea, gastritis, reddened skin, dermatitis, itching, anal itching, hair loss, digestive problems/diarrhea, weight loss, ear problems, and/or anal gland problems.

An exclusion diet limited to a previously unknown protein source can be easily implemented with our Insect Luck menu. But please always remember that nothing else—not even a single small treat—may be added to the diet with another source of animal protein. We have also deliberately avoided the use of potatoes and parsnips, as some dogs are now very sensitive to these ingredients.

In addition, our Insect Luck is grain-free and low in carbohydrates. This is important if your dog is diagnosed with giardia. In this case, a low-carbohydrate diet (accompanying the therapy) is very important—this can “starve” the giardia.

NEW! 800 g now in artificial casing:

Storing the sausage in artificial casing (without aluminum) may naturally cause a slight color change at the edges. When cut, this area may therefore appear slightly darker than the center of the sausage.
This is completely harmless and has no effect on quality or taste.Your dog will still love it!

Sustainable & practical packaging – less waste, less effort!

Our 800g products are packaged in environmentally friendly artificial casings. Compared to conventional cans, this results in significantly less packaging waste. While cans made of metal or composite materials require complex recycling and often end up in residual waste, artificial casings produce only a minimum of waste. This protects the environment and saves valuable resources.

The “sausage” also has advantages when it comes to shipping: it is robust, space-saving, and does not require complex protective packaging such as glass or cans. This means that the product can be shipped easily, safely, and with significantly less packaging material. That translates to less waste, less weight, and a smaller carbon footprint—for a sustainable and responsible diet for your dog!
