Delicious topper for dogs and cats - Ostrich

What is this ostrich meat topper and what does it do in the dog's bowl?

It is a granular supplement made from 100% dried ostrich meat. The granules stick to kibble and wet food, the aroma stimulates appetite, and the portion looks neat. An easy way to add flavor without a complicated ingredient list.

Who is ostrich protein best suited for?

Ostrich is a single protein source, so it is a clear choice for picky eaters and many with sensitive stomachs. Breed examples: small Shelties and Bichon Frisé types, medium-sized Cocker Spaniels and Border Collies, and large Labradors and Hovawarts – always start with a small amount and monitor your dog's condition.

Is the topper grain-free, additive-free, and single-protein?

Yes – the composition is pure ostrich, without grains, added salt, or preservatives. Therefore, it is also suitable for rotation and elimination diets under professional guidance.

How do I use the topper daily to excite a picky dog?

Sprinkle a small amount on top of the food or mix it in. Tip: moisten with a splash of warm water or clear broth so the granules stick to the kibble and the aroma intensifies – often this is the key for selective Poodles, Lagottos, and Whippets.

How much should I give per day?

Use as a supplement, up to about 10% of the daily food. Roughly: small breeds (e.g., Toy Poodle, Bichon Frisé) 1–2 tsp/day, medium breeds (e.g., Cocker Spaniel, Border Collie) 2–4 tsp/day, and large breeds (e.g., Labrador Retriever, Smooth-coated Retriever) 3–6 tsp/day – start with half a teaspoon and increase according to your dog's response.

Is this suitable for puppies and seniors?

Suitable for all age groups when the amount is adjusted to the dog's needs. For puppies (e.g., Parson Russell Terrier, Mittelspitz) start very moderately; for seniors (e.g., Samoyed, Lapponian Herder) monitor digestive function and ease of movement.

Can I use this as training treats or for enrichment?

Yes. The granular form is easy to crumble onto lick mats, enrichment toys, or use as a light reward, keeping the total amount controlled especially for small breeds.

What does the topper smell like and does it make a mess?

The aroma is meaty and appealing but tidy in everyday use. The granules are not sticky, and the glass jar with a wooden spoon makes dosing easy at home and on the go.

Where does the raw material come from and what does it say about quality?

The ostrich meat comes from supervised facilities in Extremadura, Spain. A simple recipe and quality drying ensure a consistent and transparent product.

What does the analysis say – is this suitable for an active dog?

Analytical constituents: crude protein 66%, crude fat 26%, crude fiber 1%, moisture 4%, ash 3%. Naturally protein-rich and energetic supplement – a good flavor boost also for active breeds (e.g., Australian Shepherd, Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever) when the overall diet remains balanced.

How do I store the jar after opening?

No refrigeration needed. Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, close the lid carefully, and use by the best before date.

Can I combine this with kibble, wet food, or BARF/homemade food?

Yes – the topper mixes with all of these. Light moistening helps distribute the flavor evenly, which is convenient for fast eaters like Whippets and Retrievers.

Is ostrich a good option from a sensitivity perspective?

Single-protein ostrich often suits dogs needing a clear protein source. If the dog has diagnosed sensitivities, start with a small amount, record observations, and consult a veterinarian if needed.

Can this be given to cats as well?

Yes, the topper is suitable for cats as a supplement. Start with 1–2 teaspoons per day and monitor digestibility – keep dog and cat meals separate.
