Vegetables for Dogs – Our heavenly fresh vegetable & fruit purees
Vegetables for dogs are a valuable part of a balanced diet. With Dog’s Heaven’s raw vegetable and fruit purees, you can offer your four-legged friend a fresh, natural addition to their daily meal. Whether as a topping in the bowl, as a supplement for BARF feeding, or frozen on a dog licking mat – the purees are versatile. Our orange puree with carrot, pumpkin, fennel, and mango, our green puree with cucumber, spinach, celery, and pear, or our red puree with beetroot, pumpkin, and strawberry bring more variety to your dog’s daily food routine.
All vegetable puree varieties consist exclusively of 100% raw materials in human-grade quality. Thanks to the innovative cold-pressure process, nutrients are optimally preserved for your dog, and the vegetable purees can be kept in the fridge for up to four months – completely without artificial additives. The clean recipe formulas contain no grain and provide your dog with natural dietary fiber from vegetables in every portion. Here you can find more information on food quality for dogs.
Not only is healthiness taken into account, but sustainability also plays an important role: the vegetable puree bottle labels are made from recycled ocean plastic, and the entire packaging is 100% recyclable.
Why vegetables and fruits are important for dogs
Fresh vegetables and fruits provide dogs with valuable vitamins, minerals, and fiber as well as secondary plant substances that support digestion and add variety to the food bowl. They ensure a natural diversity in your dog’s diet and are a meaningful addition.
Which vegetables and fruits are suitable for dogs
Not all vegetables are suitable for dogs, but a colorful mix of selected varieties is particularly recommended. These include, for example, carrots, zucchini, broccoli, pumpkin, lettuce, or spinach. For the perfect taste and an extra portion of vitamins, we also add a small amount of fruit, such as apples or berries. Sometimes complemented with fresh herbs, this creates a valuable nutrient spectrum that perfectly rounds off your dog’s nutrition. Our vegetable purees are carefully composed to provide a balanced nutrient mix that supplies every dog optimally.
Certain vegetables are particularly indigestible when raw and can cause stomach and intestinal issues, diarrhea, and vomiting, or can even be toxic. These include potatoes, cauliflower, legumes, kohlrabi, garlic, onions, and unripe tomatoes or peppers (due to the toxin solanine), which we don't use in our purees.
Raw or cooked – how dogs digest vegetables best
Many vegetables and fruits contain the most nutrients and vitamins when raw, but they are difficult for dogs to digest. By pureeing vegetables and fruits, the cell structures are broken down, the nutrients become more bioavailable, and the vegetables are more digestible for dogs without the need for cooking. Our vegetable purees are an optimal option that allows your dog to absorb the nutrients directly.
Feeding the right amount of vegetables for dogs with the BARF concept
Within the framework of BARF feeding, vegetables and fruits should make up about 20% of the diet. This ensures a balanced distribution of vitamins and nutrients and supports a species-appropriate diet for the dog. Dog’s Heaven’s raw vegetable purees are perfectly matched to this concept and make preparation easier, as they are ready to eat. The different varieties add variety to your dog’s diet. Our bone broths for dogs are also a popular option for BARF feeders.
Practical vegetable feeding for your dog in everyday life
Raw vegetable and fruit purees are particularly easy to dose and feed in a variety of ways. Simply add them to our fresh menus, mix them with BARF meat, serve them pure as a snack, or offer them frozen on a licking mat. Our purees are also suitable for reducing protein intake if a veterinarian recommends a low-protein diet for health reasons.
Thanks to the practical bottle, you can portion them precisely and store the vegetable purees easily in the refrigerator.
At Dog’s Heaven, you will find not only supplements but also complete full-menu meals. Discover our fresh dog food, for example our Adult Venison food for adult dogs, our Puppy Chicken fresh puppy food, or our hypoallergenic Kangaroo dog food.
