Fish (Australian salmon), Sweet Potato, Sardines, Carrots, Kale, Mushrooms: Button, Broccoli, Green Lipped Mussel, Marine Algae Oil, Turmeric, Ginger Root, Walnut Oil, Organic Kelp Powder, Calcium Carbonate Supplement, Zinc Supplement, Black Pepper, Choline Supplement, Copper Supplement
Fish are friends, but also food! Our Fish Bowl is particularly beneficial for supporting skin and coat health, strengthening bones and muscles, and boosting the immune and digestive systems.
To be precise, the Australian Salmon, Sardines, and Walnut Oil featured in this recipe are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for maintaining healthy skin and a shiny coat. The balanced omega-6 to omega-3 ratio of 1.23:1 also helps reduce inflammation, benefiting dogs with allergies, arthritis, or other inflammatory conditions. Omega-3s also support cognitive function and cardiovascular health.
In addition, the inclusion of Calcium Carbonate, along with the phosphorus from the fish, helps to support strong bones and teeth in dogs. The choline supplement, meanwhile, is important for maintaining healthy joints, particularly in older dogs, and it also supports liver function.
Finally, ingredients such as the Sweet Potato and Carrots are high in dietary fibre, which promotes healthy digestion and regular bowel movements for our dogs. They are also rich in antioxidants, supporting the immune system. Button Mushrooms, in particular, have immune-boosting properties and provide additional vitamins and minerals. Whilst Turmeric, with its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, further supports immune health and helps in managing inflammation, while black pepper enhances the absorption of curcumin in turmeric.

What our pet parent community thinks
Real reviews from real pet parents
Amazing 🤩
After 12 months of trial and error resulting in our young dog becoming overweight and having constant stomach upsets, I decided to go down the lightly cooked route and came across 5 hounds. After 10 weeks my dog has had a complete transformation, has not had one stomach upset and is in amazing shape. I have also found Dr Will and Dr Sienna to be very helpful and knowledgeable when I had to make a few tweaks in Franklin’s meal plan to support his urinary health. I think the photo speaks for itself….
We love 5 hounds!
Our Vizsla Mavis has been on 5Hounds since the beginning and we have seen so many improvements in her overall health. Her skin and coat are clear and shiny, she doesn’t suffer from tummy upsets, her breath is fresh and her weight is perfect. She is full of energy and looks forward to every meal. We couldn’t recommend it highly enough!
Joey is back to his cheeky, sassy little self
Joey became quite sick last year and we discovered he had a LOT of food allergies and sensitivities. He was on crocodile protein but it was not a long Term solution. Enter Dr Will and 5 Hounds. I was nervous at first, as Joey had been hospitalised and everything made him really sick. Dr Will was so supportive and was there to give me veterinarian advice and support through Joey’s transition journey. Dr Will had recommended the Goat protein that he has and to do a much slower transition than normal. I followed his advice and guidance and Joey is doing amazing! I can’t recommend 5 Hounds and Dr Will enough! I am so happy and so is Joey and his little tummy.

Where is the fish sourced?
The Australian salmon is wild-caught by the Tapley family through Port Lincoln Salmon, a South Australian operation with more than 50 years in fishing. They use aerial spotting to locate fishing grounds efficiently and purse seine nets that don't touch the seafloor and create no by-catch. The sardines come from Port Lincoln Sardine, a multi-generational South Australian family business that follows Wildlife Interaction Codes of Practice for minimal environmental impact. 5 Hounds is the first Australian pet business recognised by GoodFish for sustainable seafood sourcing.

Gradually over 5 to 7 days, mixing Fish with your dog's current food and increasing the proportion daily. Stronger aromas are normal, and most dogs adjust quickly. Important: immediately pause the transition if you notice signs of upset, including vomiting or diarrhoea. If these symptoms persist or you’re at all concerned, contact a trusted veterinarian.
