FAQ

It’s a common misconception that dogs can’t live without meat in their diets. However, research and real-world evidence suggest otherwise. Dogs are highly adaptable and can thrive on diets that provide all the essential nutrients, regardless of whether the protein source is meat-based, plant-based, or insect-based. What matters most is the quality and balance of the diet.

  • In fact, some of the longest-living dogs in history, like Bramble, who lived to 25 years, were fed plant-based diets. Studies have shown that dogs on vegan diets often enjoy benefits such as longer lifespans, fewer health problems, and reduced reliance on medication compared to those on conventional meat-based diets. For example, recent research found that dogs eating vegan diets lived up to 18 months longer on average.
  • Plant-based and insect-based proteins are not only rich in essential nutrients but also come with additional health advantages. Dogs transitioning to these diets have experienced improvements in digestion, skin conditions, and even behavioral issues like anxiety. Moreover, these diets can help resolve deficiencies caused by certain meat-based diets, such as low vitamin D levels.
  • Ultimately, dogs need high-quality protein, not necessarily meat. Plant-based and insect-based diets are scientifically proven to meet their nutritional needs while offering a more sustainable and ethical option. By choosing these diets, you can provide your dog with optimal health while contributing to a better future for our planet.

Yes, plant-based diets can absolutely provide the essential fatty acids your dog requires, including Omega-3 and Omega-6, which are critical for maintaining a healthy coat, skin, and overall well-being. These essential nutrients are not exclusive to animal-based ingredients; they are abundant in many high-quality plant-based sources.

For example, ingredients like flaxseed, chia seeds, and sunflower oil are rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. Combined with other plant-based oils and carefully formulated recipes, they ensure your dog receives all the nutrients needed for a balanced and healthy diet.

Advanced formulations, such as those used in our products, ensure optimal ratios of these fatty acids, which is essential for their absorption and effectiveness. Dogs on plant-based diets can thrive when their nutritional needs, including essential fatty acids, are met through carefully chosen, high-quality ingredients.

Switching to a plant-based diet doesn’t mean compromising on nutrition—it’s about providing your pet with everything they need to flourish, while also embracing a more sustainable and ethical choice. Explore our range of nutritionally complete plant-based options and give your dog the best in health and vitality.

Yes, plant protein is highly digestible for dogs when properly formulated. Dogs are omnivores, meaning their digestive systems are designed to process both animal and plant-based proteins effectively. High-quality plant-based ingredients, such as lentils, peas, chickpeas, and soy, are excellent sources of protein and can provide the essential amino acids dogs need to thrive.

Research has shown that plant-based diets for dogs can meet or exceed the nutritional benchmarks required for health and longevity. In fact, many dogs on plant-based diets experience benefits such as improved digestion, reduced allergies, and better gut health compared to traditional meat-based diets.

The key to digestibility lies in the formulation of the diet. By combining complementary plant protein sources, our recipes ensure that dogs receive a complete amino acid profile, supporting muscle development, energy levels, and overall vitality.

With today’s advancements in nutrition science, plant proteins are not only digestible for dogs but also a sustainable and ethical alternative to traditional meat-based diets. Explore our range of expertly crafted plant-based foods and see the difference for yourself!

By the time your puppy is two months old, its stomach is ready for solid food. However, it’s important to introduce feeding carefully—too many calories can lead to rapid growth, which may result in lifelong health issues. Instead, focus on giving your puppy the right food in the right amounts. Follow the feeding recommendations on the packaging, which are tailored to your puppy’s expected adult weight. If you’re unsure, consult an expert.

In the beginning, small meals spread throughout the day are crucial to help your puppy’s developing digestive system adjust to its food. Start with four meals per day and reduce to three by the time your puppy is six months old. Most dogs are fully grown by around one year of age. At this stage, you can switch to one or two meals per day and transition to food specifically designed for adult dogs.

For larger breeds, growth takes longer, and they may not reach full size until much later. If you’re unsure whether your dog is fully grown, consult your veterinarian. They can advise you on the best time to switch to adult dog food.

Until then, high-quality puppy or junior food is the best choice to give your dog a healthy start in life. Complete puppy or junior foods are formulated with all the essential minerals, trace elements, and vitamins needed for growth. They also contain the right energy content to meet the unique needs of growing dogs.

As dogs age, their energy levels decline, movements slow, and metabolism changes. Senior dogs need food tailored to their specific needs, as adult dog food can strain their metabolism or cause weight gain due to its high energy content.

Older dogs are more prone to health issues, making immune support essential. Nutrients like taurine and L-carnitine aid heart function, while antioxidants help slow cellular aging. Minerals, vitamins, and trace elements designed for seniors are vital for maintaining their vitality.

Henart’s Insect Protein and Vegan Dog Food are ideal for senior dogs. These sustainable diets provide high-quality, digestible protein and essential nutrients, supporting muscle maintenance and reducing sensitivities linked to meat-based diets. With antioxidant-rich ingredients and balanced nutrition, Henart helps your senior dog stay healthy and happy in their golden years.

It’s always worth taking a look at the ingredient list of dog food! Artificial flavorings, enhancers, or colorants are often found in lower-quality products. High-quality dog and cat food, on the other hand, lists its ingredients clearly. You can easily see what’s inside at a glance. Additionally, it contains important minerals, trace elements, and vitamins that your dog needs to stay healthy and happy. With high-quality complete food, you can easily meet your dog’s and cat’s nutritional needs without worrying about whether your pet is fully cared for.

Considering climate change and environmental protection, sustainability also plays an important role in high-quality dog and cat food! Our beloved four-legged friends have a surprisingly high CO2 paw print: studies show that a dog causes an average of 0.95 tons of CO2 per year. That’s a significant amount when calculated over the dog’s entire lifetime! The main cause of this is the environmental impact of conventional meat production. Therefore, high-quality dog and cat food must be sustainable and environmentally friendly, so we don’t burden the planet with unnecessary greenhouse gases through the care and feeding of our pets.

At HenArt Pet Food, we ensure that our dog food is climate-positive, environmentally friendly, and sustainable. For special dietary needs and good tolerance, we have developed hypoallergenic dog and cat food, Plant Based dog food, and gluten-free dog food.

These are our alternatives to the exploitation of our planet. We also, of course, do not conduct animal testing! With HenArt Pet Food, you help reduce your dog’s and cat’s emissions and show consideration for the environment. Moreover, your dog or cat is provided with all the essential nutrients. It’s the complete, worry-free package in the food bowl – and guaranteed high quality – promised!
