Easy Elk
Dog Food Recipe
About This Recipe
Many yumwoof pet parents—especially those who have dogs with allergies or a freezer full of elk game meat—have come to us asking for this elk recipe! We have delivered.
Did you know ground elk can be an excellent choice for dogs with allergies, as it is a lean source of protein that is easily digestible? Elk is considered a novel protein, meaning that it is a protein source that the dog has not been exposed to before. This is important for dogs with food allergies or sensitivities, as they may develop an intolerance to more commonly used protein sources like chicken or beef.
This recipe is sure to make your dog happy. There is nothign better than the taste of game meat to our canine friends.
