The low and consistent temperature of sous vide cooking can help to retain more vitamins, minerals, and nutrients compared to traditional cooking methods, which can destroy or reduce the nutrient content.

Especially important if your dog has a more sensitive stomach, gently cooked food can be easier for dogs to digest, as the cooking process breaks down proteins and carbohydrates, making them more bioavailable.

This lightly cooked dog food method preserves the natural flavours and juices of the ingredients, helping to increase the appeal and palatability of the food to some dogs.

Unlike other commercial dog food brands, gently cooked dog food like 5 Hounds uses high-quality, whole food ingredients without the need for preservatives, fillers, or artificial additives, ensuring a healthier diet for your dog.

As sous vide means a more precise temperature control, this helps to reduce the risk of overcooking or undercooking. As a result, this ensures that the food is cooked perfectly every time, which is vital to maintaining food safety and quality.

Especially important to dogs suffering from food sensitivities or allergies, this gentle cooking process can aid the reduction of potential allergens.

One of the greatest challenges for any pet parent is how to store countless containers of your dog’s food. With 5 Hounds, our gently cooked dog food can be portioned and stored easily. This makes mealtime more convenient for you, whilst still ensuring your dog receives high-quality nutrition.
