Dietary needs for a

Pug

Protein

Obesity,  allergies, and sensitive stomachs are common dietary issues facing pugs. A high-quality food is vital to keep them at a healthy weight and comfortable. Kabo fresh recipes use human-grade meat protein sources as the 1st ingredient. Quality, digestible proteins along with custom portioning will help keep your pug at their ideal  weight- a must for avoiding joint stress and other health complications.  

Parents of pugs that are allergic to common animal proteins such as chicken, will appreciate the Luscious Lamb recipe. For dogs that are on a grain-free diet, our Savoury Beef variety is an excellent option. 

Carbohydrates & Fiber

Pugs require carbohydrates to provide them with energy and fiber for digestive health. Kabo uses only natural whole sources of carbohydrates such as russet potato, sweet potato, chickpeas, squash and rice- depending on the recipe. We don’t use any fillers, corn or wheat for carbohydrates like many dry dog foods.

With no official guidance from AAFCO on carbohydrates, pet parents can rest assured- we’ve formulated our menus using our in-house animal nutritionists. Kabo only uses nutrient dense produce, all of which serves a different function. Canadian fruits and vegetables including red apples, green beans, carrots, spinach, kale, and broccoli are used in our recipes for fiber and essential vitamins, and minerals such as potassium, vitamins A, C & K, folic acid, iron, and more.  

A pugs digestive tract can be notoriously sensitive and prone to inflammation. Our chicken and rice option is gentle on their stomachs when they are upset. Also, you may notice that after a couple of weeks of feeding Kabo, their loose stool is tighter, more uniform, and they’ll be less gassy too!

Fats

Fats are an essential part of your pug's balanced diet, as it is for humans. But it’s important to get just the right amount, and the right types. Pugs sometimes experience skin issues like atopic dermatitis. Including Omega fatty acids in their diets supports healthy skin, a beautiful coat, immune function, cardiovascular health, joint health and more. 

Our food contains essential fats from lean meats, and is supplemented with fish oil and sunflower oil to provide both Omega-3 fatty acids and Omega-6 fatty acids. Great for heart and joint health. No pricey supplements required!

Rated 4.9/5

My dog Frances who is a shizu pug loves her Kabo. She has been eating Kabo for the past year and still gets excited about meal times! Our vet actually said that Franny is in great shape as the smaller older dogs tend to get a little stout as they age. She’s 9 and still full of pepper!
