Western Victorian Wild Venison is a leaner meat than beef and other red meats. This means that it has less fat and less cholesterol than the equivalent amount.
With 2% or less fat and cholesterol, packed with B group vitamins, zinc and iron, this is an amazingly good alternative for dogs with chicken or beef allergies. Its novel proteins are to thank for that. Great too for dogs who associate other foods with a previous illness – even if that food wasn’t the issue.
Venison makes an ideal inclusion for dogs suffering from pancreatitis, a sensitive gut, heart disease or obesity. So – like our kangaroo – it is super lean and hypoallergenic.
Venison is loaded with healthy vitamins and minerals, including:
Iron – Essential for the proper functioning of red blood cells, low iron levels can lead to anemia. Anemic dogs are more prone to injury, illness, and they are more lethargic and listless.
Niacin – Vitamin B3 is known to help circulation and in turn, it can reduce levels of inflammation. So, it is especially important for dogs with arthritis and other inflammatory illnesses. All B vitamins are water-soluble, which means that they are not stored by the body and are used immediately. As a result, your dog needs high levels in its diet.
Riboflavin – Vitamin B2 combines with other vitamins and minerals to fight diseases by creating antibodies within the immune system.
Vitamin B2 is also necessary to help the body absorb B6 and iron.
Vitamin B – Vitamin B6 is another B vitamin, and like the others, it is water-soluble so your dog’s body must consume what it requires at the time. It is used to create glucose and it supports a healthy immune system while supporting DNA.
Omega-3 – Venison contains higher concentrations of omega-3 fatty acids than other red meats, and this is important in cognition and brain health, as well as eye and even coat and skin health. Omega-3 fatty acids can also treat arthritis and kidney disease.
