FAQs

What makes cold-pressed dog food different from kibble?

Cold-pressed food is made at lower temperatures, which helps retain more natural nutrients, vitamins, and minerals compared to kibble, which is extruded at high heat.

Is this food suitable for puppies?

Yes, Wilsons Cold Pressed Haggis Dog Food is suitable for dogs aged 2 months and older, including puppies, providing they are transitioning gradually.

What are the main ingredients in the Haggis recipe?

The Haggis recipe includes lamb (dried ground lamb, hydrolysed liver, lamb fat), oats, peas, sweet potato, rice, rapeseed oil, beet pulp, kale, and seaweed, along with essential supplements like taurine and DL-methionine.

How much food should I give my dog?

Feeding guidelines vary based on your dog's age, breed, activity level, and metabolism. Refer to the packaging for specific recommendations and adjust as needed to maintain an ideal body condition.

Can this food be mixed with wet food?

While it can be mixed with wet food, it's designed as a complete and balanced dry food. If mixing, ensure the overall diet remains balanced and consider the combined calorie intake. Transitioning should still be done gradually.

What is the shelf life of this product?

Once opened, store in a cool, dry place and use within the recommended timeframe indicated on the packaging, typically a few months, to ensure freshness and quality. Always keep the packaging sealed.

What does 'analytical constituents' mean?

Analytical constituents are the guaranteed minimum percentages of key components in the food, such as crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre, and ash, which indicate the nutritional makeup.

Troubleshooting

Dog is reluctant to eat the new food

Ensure a gradual transition over 7-10 days. You can also try warming the food slightly with a little warm water or adding a small, dog-safe topper like plain chicken broth (ensure no onion or garlic).

Digestive upset (e.g., loose stools) after switching

Slow down the transition process. If symptoms persist, revert to the previous food temporarily and try introducing Wilsons Haggis Dog Food again at a slower pace. Consult a veterinarian if the issue is severe or prolonged.

Food appears dry or crumbly

This is normal for cold-pressed food, which is designed to be nutrient-dense. Serving with a small amount of warm water can help soften it for some dogs, if desired.
