Why Happy Hounds Fresh Dog Food Is Great for Puppies

Bringing a new puppy home is such a special time - filled with with playful zoomies, endless cuddles, and the start of a lifelong bond. Among the many choices that come with raising a pup, one of the most important is deciding what to feed them. Puppies have unique nutritional needs to support their rapid growth, boundless energy, and developing immune systems.

Our fresh dog food recipes are designed with puppies in mind, providing balanced nutrients to help promote healthy growth. By using minimally processed, high-quality ingredients, each meal delivers essential nourishment in a way that’s easy for their little bodies to absorb.

Fresh Food: More Bioavailable for Growing Pups

Fresh food is naturally more bioavailable, meaning your puppy digests more of the goodness from their meals. Unlike highly processed foods, which can lose key nutrients through cooking and preservation methods, fresh food retains its natural benefits. This means better digestion, more energy for zoomies, and all the right building blocks for strong bones, a healthy coat, and a thriving immune system.

Happy Hounds: Formulated to Meet Puppies’ Needs

Our fresh dog food recipes are carefully crafted to provide:
✔ Optimal protein levels from high-quality meats like chicken, beef, and fish to support growing muscles.
✔ Essential fatty acids (like Omega-3 and Omega-6) for brain health and a shiny coat.
✔ Nutrient-dense vegetables like sweet potatoes, spinach, and carrots for added vitamins and fiber.
✔ Easily digestible ingredients that are gentle on a puppy’s developing stomach.
