Variety is extremely important for a healthy digestive system. The microbiome is a complex colony of micro-organisms in your dog’s gastrointestinal tract, which forms a protective barrier against toxins, carcinogens and allergens. Emerging scientific thinking suggests the more diversity within a diet, the stronger your dog’s microbiome, leading to a healthier and happier dog.
Increasing variety should be a gentle process, especially if your dog has not been used to it. A slow and steady introduction is recommended.
