Our Kangaroo Bowl offers a heap of health benefits for dogs, packed full of nutrients and nourishment.
Kangaroo meat is exceptionally lean and high in protein, making it an excellent option for dogs that need to build and maintain muscle mass while managing their weight. Equally, the low fat content makes it ideal for dogs prone to obesity or those needing a low-fat diet, whilst kangaroo liver provides essential vitamins and minerals, enhancing overall vitality.
In addition, the inclusion of fibre-rich ingredients such as Quinoa, Spinach, Green Beans, Butternut Pumpkin, and Blueberries support healthy digestion and help maintain a healthy gut microbiome. Quinoa, being a gluten-free grain, provides a complete protein source and essential amino acids, while spinach and blueberries are packed with antioxidants and vitamins that bolster the immune system and protect against cellular damage.
Finally, the addition of Walnut Oil, Flaxseed Oil and Chia Seeds, alongside the other recipe ingredients, provides the ideal ratio of omega fatty acids to make this meal excellent for maintaining skin health and a glossy coat, while also reducing inflammation throughout the body. Omega-3s are particularly beneficial for dogs with allergies or inflammatory conditions, as they help to mitigate symptoms and promote overall skin and joint health.

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 kangaroo sourced?
Our kangaroo is wild-game harvested in Australia under strictly monitored programs. Kangaroo populations here are plentiful, they live on a natural diet of native vegetation, and they produce considerably less methane than cattle, which makes their overall environmental footprint much smaller than farmed red meats. Wild harvesting also supports landowners (who often regard kangaroos as a pest species) and helps native bushland regenerate through reduced competition for grazing.
