💡 Our Recommendations

Rotation - Your Most Important Nutritional Strategy

🐾 No matter what food your dog eats, rotation is always recommended where possible to increase the probability of better all-round nutrition.

🔄 We highly recommend rotating within the same brand whenever possible. 🐶

This range includes the following rotation options: Chicken and Lamb. While some benefits of nutritional rotation are possible, the restricted variety may make it more challenging to achieve full dietary balance.

Understanding Rotation

Natural Dog Treats

💡 Why Might Treats Be Considered?

All treats should serve a nutritional purpose. They either balance the dogs diet filling nutritional gaps, support digestion or promote joint/coat health. 

This food provides solid nutrition but may benefit from some carefully selected treats to complement specific nutrients and support overall well-being.

Recommended Treats to Complement Barking Heads Adult Dry Dog Food

Beef Achilles Tendon - A durable, long-lasting chew that supports dental health and strengthens jaw muscles.

Rabbit Ear with Fur - A natural fibre source that aids digestion and supports gut health

Supplements

💡Why Might Supplements Be Considered?

This food provides a solid nutritional foundation, though some nutrients may be less optimal than in higher-rated foods. Rotating protein sources and introducing targeted supplements, such as omega-3s or joint support, can help maintain overall well-being.

Our Recommended Supplement Range

Whole Foods - Additional Nutrients

Looking to enhance your dog’s diet naturally, whole foods can be a great way to introduce additional nutrients.

Even the healthiest whole foods can turn a well-balanced diet into something excessive if portion control is ignored. More nutrition doesn’t always mean better, it often means overload, leading to toxicity, digestive issues, or long-term organ strain.

✔ Whole foods should complement, not compete with a balanced diet.
✔ If you’re adding whole foods regularly, you must reduce the main food accordingly.
✔ If you have any questions about whole foods contact us to ensure the diet stays safe, balanced, and beneficial.
