When it comes to dog food, there’s an overwhelming amount of choice out there. So much so that it can be hard to differentiate the benefits between all the brands that swear their product is the very best. 

Primary Goods isn’t in the business of believing such claims without actual proof, however. And we think that dog food stands or falls on something you truly can’t fake: the quality of its ingredients. That’s why we love Ollie so much, and trust that it’s good for our dogs.

Ollie’s Ingredients Make It The Healthiest Food For Your Dog

What makes Ollie stand out is their commitment to cooking fresh dog food that’s made from real, human-grade ingredients just like the ones you use to make your own dinner. That’s the difference between feeding your precious pup a bowl of uniform brown sludge, or a bowl of fresh, visibly nutritious fare that contains foods you can actually recognise with your own eyes as healthful.  

‍

We might be used to our dogs eating uniform, unidentifiable kibble with just-enough supplements and additives included to reach nutritional requirements, but it is in fact essential for dogs to get their vitamins, minerals, and nutrients from a range of fresh ingredients. 

‍

Ollie intentionally uses only premium, human-grade ingredients including meat, vegetables, fruits, and grains, all carefully sourced from trusted vendors. Their recipes are the closest thing out there to feeding your dog human food (but even better for them, as it’s balanced and complete, thanks to abiding by all AAFCO standards). 

‍

You might be surprised to find that some of those fresh ingredients are exactly what you have in your own fridge, and didn’t realise they were so good for your dog! These six ingredients are not only safe for pups, but are essential for their nutrition…

‍

1. Blueberries

These berries are incredibly nutritious for both dogs and humans. Full of dietary fiber, antioxidants (which help support a healthy immune system), and vitamins C and K. Ollie’s fresh turkey recipe is chock full of blueberries, helping dogs to stay lean, healthy, and to build up muscle. Start building your dog’s meal plan here so they can experience the benefits of blueberries!

2. Sweet Potatoes

Who knew everyone’s favorite Thanksgiving side was so good for dogs? Ollie, of course! Their fresh beef dog food is loaded with sweet potatoes so your pup can benefit from the slow-burn energy and dietary fiber this beloved carb provides. They’re also packed with antioxidants, vitamin A (important for eye health!), and vitamin C. Is your dog getting these essential nutrients? Sign up here for peace of mind.

3. Carrots

Bugs Bunny called, he wants his snack back! Carrots are so good for dogs. A vital source of potassium, they’re also full of fiber and vitamin A. In Ollie’s fresh chicken recipe, they’re gently cooked for easy digestion and provide perfect fuel for dogs with sensitive stomachs or slightly picky eaters.

4. Cranberries

This tart berry helps to keep dogs healthy in the longer term, thanks to its rich antioxidant content. Ollie’s fresh lamb dish with cranberries provides dogs with dietary fiber and vitamins C and K. Make sure your dog isn’t missing out on these crucial nutrients by signing them up to one of Ollie’s expertly balanced meal plans.

5. Apples 

Apples are such a commonly found food that it’s often forgotten how good they are for dogs. Lucky for us, Ollie’s well aware. They use apples in their fresh pork meal for their high fiber content, which improves digestion. Is your dog getting the fiber they need? Guarantee their nutritional wellbeing by feeding them Ollie.

6. Spinach

It’s not just humans who can benefit from eating their greens! This superfood has vitamins A, B, C, and K, as well as ample amounts of iron, antioxidants, and beta-carotene. Rather than giving your dog a salad every day (who has the time?), just feed them Ollie. They include spinach in their fresh beef, turkey, chicken, and pork recipes.

The Nutrient-Rich Diet Your Dog Needs

Our beloved dogs deserve a variety of flavors, textures, and colors in their diet. By feeding them Ollie, you’ll effortlessly add essential nutrients that will boost your pup’s wellbeing, and that they would never normally get from traditional kibbles or wet foods—helping them live a longer, happier, and healthier life.
