Rich in strength

The term "starchy" in relation to dog food means that the food contains ingredients that have a significant amount of starch. Starch is a carbohydrate found in many plants and is a common source of energy in a dog's diet.

Starch usually needs to be broken down (cooked or otherwise processed) to make it digestible for dogs. In the dog's digestive system, starch is then broken down into smaller sugars (glucose) that serve as a source of energy.

There are a few points to bear in mind when feeding starchy food:

  • Starch provides energy, but can lead to weight gain if consumed in excess.
  • Dogs with certain health conditions, such as diabetes, may benefit from a diet with a lower starch content.
  • Some dogs may have intolerances or allergies to certain starchy ingredients.
  • Starchy foods can therefore be both beneficial and less suitable depending on the health condition and individual needs of the dog.
