Grain Free Food For Dogs and Puppies

A Pet Circle we stock a huge range of grain-free dog food for all breeds large and small. Grain free diets focus on replicating a dog's natural, ancestral diet. which is free from common ingredients like wheat, corn, rice, and oats. The main ingredients focus on using natural, high quality protein sources and even superfoods that may offer nutritional benefits.

Is Grain-Free Right For My Dog?

Many pet parents find that their dogs do better on grain-free diets and this can manifest as improved digestion, or relief from itchy skin or common dog allergies. In terms of allergies, grain allergies are actually quite rare; protein source is the most common culprit when a food allergy is suspected.

If your dog has a confirmed grain allergy or if you would need a novel or single protein diet, which many natural brands do offer, grain-free diets are a great option. It is however important to critically evaluate the ingredients and nutrients that it provides as carbohydrate alternatives can offer less in the way of nutrients. For example, brown rice is an excellent source of fibre and slow release energy. while tapioca flour has little fibre.

Recently, there have been concerns regarding grain-free diets being linked to heart disease. There is no conclusive evidence yet on this but for dogs who have been diagnosed with DCM or are at higher risk, it would be best to discuss with your vet which diet would be most suitable for your dog.

Are Grains Actually Harmful To Dogs?

Grains are often referred to as filler ingredients but grains are actually a valuable source of nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and fibre. Compared to wolves, domestic dogs evolved through the years, enabling them to process and digest these ingredients.

Choosing the Right Grain-Free Dog Food

In choosing a diet for your dog, consider their age, size/breed, or health conditions. Pet Circle stock a variety of options that offer age and size specific recipes as well as a variety of protein sources:

Black Hawk and Ivory Coat are both proudly Aussie brands that boast a range of both grain-free and inclusive diets made with quality ingredients.
Meals for Mutts is an Australian made, natural and organic pet food dog brand that uses high quality ingredients, and their range of single protein diets are great for dogs with food allergies.
Zignature makes feeding your dog a rotational diet a whole lot easier. They offer a range of limited-ingredient natural recipes made with unique protein sources.

Is Grain-Free Dog Food More Expensive?

Grain-free dog food may be more expensive, as less cost-effective carbohydrate sources like sweet potato or tapioca flour are used in place of grains. However, costs can still vary depending on the brand and quality of the ingredients.

How Do I Switch My Dog To A Grainless Food?

With any change in diet, it would be best to do so over a period of at least 7-10 days to reduce the risk of tummy upsets.
