If you are looking for beef-based food for a small dog, try the 3 kg bag before buying a larger amount. KUDO Red Meat & Vegetables Mini is a cold-pressed complete food with beef and vegetables for adult small-breed dogs. It comes in small kibble pieces.

The ingredient list starts with dehydrated beef meat (32%), followed by sweet potato (13%), potato, beef fat (12%), oat flakes, rice (5%) and lamb liver (5%), plus pumpkin and carrot. Rice is an easily digestible energy source and oats add fibre for steady digestion. Crude protein is 25%, crude fat 14% and crude fibre 3.2%; the energy content is 4000 kcal/kg. It contains glucosamine at 404 mg/kg and chondroitin sulphate at 353 mg/kg. Both are natural building blocks of joint cartilage. The food is made in Serbia without added artificial colourings and contains no GMOs.

The kibble is formed by cold pressing. According to the manufacturer, cold pressing helps preserve the ingredients' natural flavour and aroma and glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate support joint mobility.

4 Käppa advice: a small dog eats small amounts and cold-pressed food is denser than ordinary kibble, so weigh the daily amount from the pack table on a kitchen scale. Switch to the new food over 7 to 10 days by gradually mixing it with the current one. Always provide fresh drinking water.
