Nutritional Positioning
This product is fully balanced and can be used as a meal topper or served as a complete meal when rehydrated. The guaranteed analysis reflects a high-protein, high-fat freeze-dried profile: Crude Protein (min.) 46%, Crude Fat (min.) 35%, Crude Fiber (max.) 2.5%, Moisture (max.) 8%. Hoki delivers naturally occurring omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, which are particularly important for brain and eye development in puppies and support cognitive function in adult dogs. Beef organ meats provide naturally occurring vitamin A, B vitamins, iron, and zinc. Chelated minerals - zinc proteinate, iron proteinate, copper proteinate, and manganese proteinate - are included for enhanced bioavailability. Portion use should be adjusted based on the dog's weight, activity level, and primary diet.
Texture, Palatability, and Feeding Experience
K9 Natural Freeze-Dried Hoki and Beef Topper has a light freeze-dried texture that can be sprinkled directly over kibble or wet food dry, or rehydrated with warm water for a softer consistency and enhanced aroma. The combination of fish and beef creates a rich, savory aroma that tends to appeal to a wide range of dogs, including selective eaters. The concentrated flavor profile from organ meats and Hoki adds immediate palatability to the bowl. Individual palatability may vary based on the dog's prior diet and protein preferences.
Feeding Guidance and Portion Use
Sprinkle over your dog's existing food for a nutrient-packed boost, or rehydrate and serve as a complete meal. As a general guide: small dogs (5-10 kg) feed approximately 1/4 cup per day; medium dogs (11-25 kg) feed approximately 1/2 cup per day; large dogs (26 kg+) feed 1/2 cup or more per day. Adjust portions based on your dog's activity level, age, and dietary needs. Always provide access to clean, fresh water. Reseal after opening and store in a cool, dry place.
Safety, Storage, and Handling
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Reseal the packaging after each use to maintain freshness. Always ensure fresh water is available alongside feeding. Keep out of reach of children.
