Gluten-free dog food for dogs with sensitive stomachs and a focus on well-being
Gluten-free dog food is a classic choice when you want to feed more gently and at the same time have control over what your dog gets in their bowl. Many choose gluten-free because their dog suffers from a sensitive stomach, itching, digestive upset or just generally thrives better on a recipe without wheat and other gluten-containing grains. It's not hype, it's just practical: fewer potential irritants, more peace of mind in everyday life.
At FjeldgaardShop.dk you will find gluten-free dog food produced in Europe. This typically means better traceability, clearer requirements for raw materials and more uniform quality control. And yes, we prioritize animal welfare and responsible choices, because that's how you build a webshop that lasts in the long run.
When does gluten-free dog food make sense?
Gluten-free is especially relevant if you can recognize one or more of these situations:
- Sensitive digestion: loose stomach, flatulence or unstable stools
- Sensitive skin and coat: itching, redness or dry skin may be related to the food
-
Picky dog: some dogs eat better when the recipe is simpler and the flavor is more distinct
- Exclusion and testing: gluten-free can be a step when you want to find out what the dog reacts to
Real talk: Gluten-free doesn’t automatically mean “hypoallergenic.” If your dog reacts, it’s often the protein source (like chicken or beef) that’s the culprit, not necessarily gluten. That’s why it makes sense to choose a recipe with a clear protein source and an ingredient list you can actually read.
Produced in Europe, because quality and responsibility count
When dog food is produced in Europe, you typically get:
- shorter and more transparent supply chain
- better documentation and traceability
- stable quality from bag to bag
- higher requirements for food safety (general)
It's not a magical seal of quality, but it's a strong starting point when you want to act more safely and responsibly.
How to choose the right gluten-free dog food
If you want to make a good choice without getting bogged down in details, do this:
1) Choose by life stage
- Puppy: higher energy and nutrition for growth
- Adult: balance between energy, satiety and muscle maintenance
- Senior: often needs a gentler composition and adjusted energy level
2) Choose by activity level
An active dog needs more energy. A couch potato needs more control. It's old school, but true: match the food to the dog's daily routine.
3) Check the ingredient list with common sense
Look for:
- one clear source of protein (especially if the dog is sensitive)
- no wheat and gluten-containing grains, e.g. barley and rye
- a reasonable fat content for coat, skin and satiety
- few and clear ingredients if you are troubleshooting reactions
Good habits when changing food so that your stomach follows suit
Change gradually over 5–7 days. Start with a little new in the old, and increase slowly. If you change too quickly, you can easily get an upset stomach and think it's the food, when it was just the pace.
How to change dry food
When you want to change your dog's dry food, it should be done gradually over 1-2 weeks. Start by mixing a small amount of the new food into the old food and slowly increase the amount. This way you avoid stomach problems and give your dog time to get used to the new taste.
Here is a simple schedule guide for changing food:
| Dag | Fordeling gammelt foder | Fordeling nyt foder |
|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | 75% | 25% |
| 4–6 | 50% | 50% |
| 7–9 | 25% | 75% |
| 10–14 | 0% | 100% |
By following this schedule, you minimize the risk of stomach problems and ensure a smooth transition to the new dry food.
