Is turkey good for dogs?

Is turkey good for dogs?#

Yes, in the right amount. Turkey is a lean, low-fat protein source, making it a good option for dogs who need to manage their weight or who do better on lighter meals.

It provides essential amino acids, B vitamins and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus, supporting muscle maintenance and overall condition.

How we use it#

Turkey appears in a number of our balanced raw meals, and it's a protein we often recommend for dogs on a weight management plan, since it delivers good nutrition without excess fat.

We also use it in some handmade treats for owners who want a lighter option to reward their dog with.

Anything to watch?#

As with any protein, introduce turkey gradually and watch for signs of an upset stomach or sensitivity. Always remove any small, sharp bone fragments and avoid seasoned or cooked leftovers, which aren't suitable for dogs.

If your dog has a specific medical condition, check with your vet before changing their protein source.
