Looking for a meal that offers premium nutrition for your dog? Then our Goat Bowl is a great pick for you, with several key benefits offered by this range of ingredients.
The Turmeric and Omega-3 Rich Oils (such as the Flaxseed Oil) offer both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant support. Turmeric is a powerful natural anti-inflammatory that can help manage chronic inflammation, which is beneficial for dogs with conditions like arthritis or allergies. The balanced omega-6 to omega-3 ratio of 1.17:1 further supports anti-inflammatory effects and promotes healthy skin and a shiny coat. Additionally, these ingredients provide antioxidant support, protecting cells from oxidative stress.
Meanwhile, the Goat meat and organ meats are top sources of high-quality protein, essential for maintaining strong muscles. Goat heart is particularly rich in taurine, an amino acid crucial for heart health.
Finally, ingredients such as the Butternut Pumpkin, Beetroot and Spinach are rich in dietary fibre, which promotes healthy digestion and regular bowel movements in dogs. Butternut and beetroot help in maintaining a healthy gut and support liver function, ensuring that dogs receive the full nutritional benefits of their diet.

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.

How do I transition an allergy-prone dog onto Goat?
Transition slowly, ideally over 7 to 10 days instead of the usual 5 to 7, so a sensitive gut has time to adjust. Dr Will's team can guide you through a slower plan if needed. 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.
