Buy protein food for dogs online

Animal food from insects ? Sounds strange right ? But this type of food is nature friendly, healthy and ecological. Chief amongst the potential alternatives to meat in pet food are insects. There are currently a dozen or so candidates for insect protein sources including housefly pupae, crickets, mealworm larvae, black soldier fly larvae and cockroaches. They are all easy, quick and relatively inexpensive to produce with far lower carbon emissions or required space than conventional meat farming. Some, like the black soldier fly, can even be raised entirely on waste human food, making them an even better choice for the environment.

Pets, however, are another matter. According to some estimates, pets consume as much as 20% of a country’s meat intake—making them a significant point of leverage for cutting back on industrial, factory-farmed meat. But how viable (or ethical) is to turn your dog into a vegetarian? Grubs might be the answer. Specifically, they use a flour made from Hermetia Illucens larvae which are raised on a vegetarian diet of food waste. This flour is then blended with vegetables like potatoes and beets, and grains such as oats (selected for their lower carbon footprint, as well as their nutritional qualities).

Eat Small is energy, strength and endurance for dogs through natural food & cold pressed trainings treats. Quality hypoallergenic and yummy gluten and grain free ingredients also suitable for food sensitive dogs.

Hermetia illucens, an exceptional source of revolutionary proteins for pets, with a minimal ecological footprint.

Like fish, poultry, pork or beef, Hermetia’s nymphs are a delicious source of protein and nutrients. We chose Hermetia illucens for its rapid reproduction and growth cycle, as well as its minimal need for water, food and space. Our Hermetia illucens nymphs come from certified farms that meet all.

Cats and dogs are CARNIVOROUS, which means that they need animal proteins to stay healthy and active. INSECT PROTEINS from Hermetia contain all essential amino acids that carnivores like dogs need. Cats have slightly different physiologic needs and we are preparing for them something very special with another insect protein type. Although small, many edible insects surpass the nutritional qualities of meat. Their high protein content makes them particularly interesting for active dogs.

Will my dog like a food made with insect protein instead of meat protein? Of course! Our insects have a meaty flavor with a nutty tone and are delicious for carnivores like dogs. We also choose all our other ingredients not just because they of their high nutritional quality, but also for their great taste : sweet potatoes, wild berries, oils like sunflower or lin oil, bananas, amaranth… In our training treats, we also use a little bit of insect fat. It’s rich in essential fatty acids and dogs like it so much, that it makes each bite completely irresistible for them. What a yummy way to treat your best friend!

Can my dog be allergic to insect? If your dog have a known allergy against crustaceans like shrimps or lobsters (very unlikely) or to fleas or body/ear mites, he can also be allergic to the insect in its food. In these allergies, the allergen is most likely the chitin, an insoluble fiber found within the shell of crustaceans, but also in the exosqueleton of insects or body mites. Cross-reactions between these different allergies don’t occur systematically but it is important to be aware of it. Another possibility would be that, just like for meat, the immune system of a very sensitive dog eventually sensibilizes to insect protein.
