I remember watching one of the earliest series of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire in the days of Chris Tarrant instead of Jeremy Clarkson, that's how long ago it was!
One of the very first contestants on the show was about to win a million pounds with this question:
What is a Bichon Frise?
a.) A cold fresh breeze
b.) A type of dog breed
As a vet, I was jumping up and down in my seat thinking that this was the easiest million pound question ever.....when he answered that it was a breeze instead of a dog breed!!
Yes Bichons are one of the sweetest small dog breeds, but those very loveable looks come at such a price as they so often suffer from sensitivities with their skin and their digestion.
How wonderful to receive this our 179th ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Google review from Omar just one month after the launch of our premium complete dog food BioBuddy made from highly digestible and innovative fermentation protein -
"Unfortunately bichons do have sensitive stomachs, so she would, at least once a week, throw up her food. She did this before she was vegetarian and afterwards as well. She's been on BioBuddy for close to a month now and hasn't thrown up once. I'll be sticking to this brand for as long as it's stocked. Very relieved to have found something that works for her. Finally!"
What is in BioBuddy Cold-Pressed that makes it so digestible?
BioBuddy cold-pressed superfood is the UK's very first dog food to be made using highly digestible and gut friendly fermentation protein.
It is hypoallergenic as well as having a rich umami taste that dogs absolutely love!
Cold-pressed ensures that the food is not heat treated like normal dry dog foods, so this retains the valuable vitamins, so all SO nutritious for little Bichons like Omars!
(Read here about Prof Andrew Knight's latest study from 2026 where he mentions fermentation protein as found in BioBuddy to be highly digestible!)

“Fermentation is one of humankind’s oldest technologies – and at the same time, one of the most exciting technologies of the future.
It answers the question of how we can sustainably provide safe and affordable nutrition for a growing global population. It is therefore a key technology for the agri-food industry and it starts with its use in pet food.”
“We’re very clever and extremely resourceful – and we will find ways of preserving ourselves, of that I’m sure. ”
– Sir David Attenborough
“When nutrition is done right, you don’t necessarily notice it working — you just notice your dog thriving. No noise, no stress, no vet appointments. To benefit our environment and farmed animals too is a massive bonus!”
The gently-pressed kibble pieces are intentionally wide in shape while keeping a balanced thickness, and the smooth rounded edges help reduce irritation on sensitive gums.
