My order is late - what can I feed my dog?
If your delivery is delayed or you are running low on your dog's regular food, we understand this can be a stressful situation. To bridge the gap and keep your dog happy and full, we recommend preparing a simple, home-cooked meal using bland ingredients.
This gentle alternative helps keep their tummy settled and avoids the digestive upset that often happens when suddenly switching to a new brand of commercial dog food.
The ideal emergency meal recipe
If it is suitable for your dog's specific dietary needs and allergies, you can feed them a plain mix of:
A lean protein: Plain, unseasoned boiled chicken breast or white fish (ensure all bones are removed).
A gentle carbohydrate: Plain boiled white rice or boiled potato/sweet potato (skinned and mashed).
Important cooking tips:
Keep it completely plain: Do not add any oil, butter, salt, pepper, garlic, or onions, as these can cause severe stomach upset or be toxic to dogs.
Let it cool: Always allow the food to cool down completely to room temperature before serving it to your dog.
Keep an eye on their tummy
This bland diet is highly digestible and very gentle on the stomach. However, if your dog has known severe allergies or a chronic medical condition, please consult your vet before introducing these ingredients.
