How can I add more fibre to my dog’s diet?

Simple ways to increase fibre and boost digestive health

Updated yesterday

If your pup’s tummy needs a little support, you’re in the right place. The freshly prepared ingredients we use like flaxseed, lentils, sweet potato, and carrots mean that all our recipes contain both soluble and insoluble fibre.

This means most dogs get all the fibre they need to stay regular and have healthy, well-formed stools.

Plus, the moisture in our meals can help support hydration, which is also important for healthy digestion.

That said, some dogs may benefit from a little extra fibre now and then. Here are a couple of natural options you can try:

  • 🎃 Pumpkin – A spoonful of plain, cooked canned pumpkin (unsweetened and salt-free) is a great natural source of fibre. You can find it in most supermarkets, and some local pet stores also sell a powdered version as an easy alternative.

  • Flaxseed – While our meals already include flaxseed, adding a small sprinkle on top can give your dog’s fibre intake a gentle boost.

For dogs experiencing tummy upset, like loose poos, excess wind, or general discomfort, our Good for Guts powder is a great backup to have in the cupboard. It blends prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics to help restore balance in the gut, and it also works as a daily supplement for dogs who need long-term digestive support.

💡 And as always, if your dog’s digestive issues persist or you’re ever unsure, we’d recommend having a chat with your vet for tailored advice.
