Delicious side dish for dogs and cats - Iberian wild boar

What is this Iberico topper and who is it suitable for?

This is a supplement made from 100% Iberico pork fillet. Its granular texture makes it easy to mix with kibble, wet food, BARF, or homemade food, and it suits dogs of all sizes as a daily treat or appetite stimulant.

How are toppers used in practice?

Sprinkle a small amount on top of the food or mix it in – a spoonful is enough to add flavor and aroma. You can also moisten it with warm water or broth, which helps the topper stick better to the kibble and makes the food juicier.

How much can be given per day?

Keep the amount of the supplement to a maximum of 10% of the dog's daily food. As a guideline: small dogs (e.g., Shetland Sheepdog, Bichon Frisé) 1–2 tsp/day, medium-sized (e.g., Border Collie, Whippet) 2–4 tsp/day, and large (e.g., Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever) 3–6 tsp/day. Always start with a smaller amount and monitor the dog's condition.

Does this work for a picky dog?

Yes – the flavorful, granular meat completes the meal and often gets even picky eaters to eat. For example, poodles, cocker spaniels, and Portuguese water dogs often benefit from a small "flavor boost," especially when kibble needs to be more enticing.

Is this suitable for sensitive or allergic dogs?

The product is monoprotein (only one animal protein), grain-free, and contains no salt or additives. It is a good option for many dogs with sensitive stomachs, but if your dog is allergic to pork, choose another protein. Always follow professional guidance when using elimination or rotation diets.

What are the protein and fat contents – is it suitable for an active dog?

The analysis is naturally meaty: crude protein 68%, fat 18%, and fiber 7%. Active sport dogs (e.g., Australian Shepherd, German Shepherd) often benefit from extra protein, as long as the overall diet remains balanced.

Is this safe for puppies and seniors?

Suitable for all age groups when the amount is kept appropriate to the dog's needs. For puppies (e.g., Lagotto Romagnolo, Parson Russell Terrier) start with a teaspoon, for seniors (e.g., Hovawart, Lapponian Herder) monitor digestive function and adjust the amount as needed.

Can I use this for training treats or enrichment?

Yes! The granular form works well with lick mats, enrichment toys, or light training treats. For small breeds (e.g., Toy Poodle) crumble into even smaller pieces to keep the total amount moderate.

Does this also work if the dog eats BARF or homemade food?

It works – the topper mixes well with both raw food and homemade food and adds texture as well as flavor to the meal. For example, in lighter meals for Whippets or Salukis, the topper adds nice variety without unnecessary fillers.

What if my dog is very small or has a very sensitive stomach?

Start with a crumb and increase the amount slowly over a few days. For Italian Greyhounds or poodle mixes, half a teaspoon per meal may be enough – monitor the dog's condition and stools and adjust accordingly.

Where does the Iberico meat come from and what does it say about quality?

The raw material is Iberico pork fillet from Extremadura, Spain. Monoprotein, transparent composition, and additive-free make the product a high-quality everyday supplement – especially when you want to keep ingredients as clear as possible.

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

The smell is meaty but clean in everyday use, especially since the product contains no sauce. The granules are not sticky, and the glass jar and wooden spoon make dosing easy both in the kitchen and on the go.

How should this be stored after opening?

Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight – refrigeration is not necessary. Close the lid carefully after each use and use by the best before date; if stored properly, the jar remains high quality even after opening.

Can this be used for cats?

Yes, the product is also suitable as a supplement for cats. Start with 1–2 teaspoons per day and monitor digestibility – many cats enjoy the granular texture and real meat.
