What Are Vets Saying About Plant-Based Dog Nutrition?
Listen to Prof Clare Knottenbelt and Prof Andrew Knight speaking at London Vet Show 2022
“A balanced plant-based diet is a good choice for a truly novel protein diet when food trialling dogs with potential cutaneous adverse food reactions.
They are often more palatable than hydrolysed protein diets and dogs with an intolerance can be maintained on a complete diet indefinitely.”
“I decided to put my own dog Jumble on a fully plant-based diet. And OH MY…the transformation was unbelievable!!
The weight just dropped off, he had his energy back, and his coat was just SO shiny that even other vets commented on how good he looked!”
“I have been feeding my two rescue dogs Arthur and Elsie on Solo Vegetal complete dry food for the past 18 months.
Both were in poor physical health when we took them on. Solo Vegetal has been so beneficial for both dogs and has really helped their gastrointestinal and skin issues. It seems to be extremely palatable (they love it!), they remain at an ideal body weight and both dog’s coats are thick and lustrous.
As a cardiology specialist I am very aware of the importance of feeding a balanced diet to ensuring cardiac health. Arthur and Elsie’s hearts are regularly scanned in the cardiac ultrasound CPD courses that I teach, so I know that their hearts are in great shape and their exercise tolerance is phenomenal!”
“Nutritionally complete soya-based dry food Omni is having every batch analysed post-production in partnership with the Nottingham Vet School to confirm that their dry foods do comply with FEDIAF.”
