Health Benefits

As well as making up a complete diet, Give A Dog A Bean’s ingredients also have a number of health benefits for the body, in particular the skin, heart and digestion:

Bean and Quinoa protein is chosen as a valuable protein source as both have an optimal amino acid profile for your dog.
Added Hemp Seeds and Algae provides the essential Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. They lead to a soft and healthy coat and fully support a healthy skin barrier for all dogs with sensitive skins.
Blueberries are chosen for their antioxidant properties. They are characterised by a high fibre content, which has a beneficial effect on digestion. Minerals such as iron, magnesium, calcium and potassium are abundant in blueberries as well as high levels of Vitamins B and E.
Papaya is another superfood that is added as it contains one of the highest levels of natural digestive enzymes of all the fruit.
Sweet Potato is rich in nutrients and fibre and contains large amounts of Vitamins A, C and E, as well as essential fibre. Due to a low sodium content, sweet potato has a diuretic effect, so that detoxification processes are stimulated in the body and harmful waste products are more easily removed.
The addition of Carrots, Kale, Green Beans, Pumpkin Seeds and Psyllium Husks ensures that your dog gets their ‘5 a day’ to naturally feed their gut microbiome which in turn will look after your dog’s health naturally.
Give a Dog A Bean is a healthy, nutritionally complete, very tasty hypoallergenic plant-based food for your dog.

WHY HAVE YOU NOT USED PEA PROTEIN OR YEAST?

We are so proud to have produced the very first vegan dog food in the world to contain no yeast and no pea protein as one of its ingredients.
We have chosen to omit pea protein as we have had so many dogs show intolerances to peas of any kind so Give A Dog A Bean is the ONLY grain-free plant-based food that they will be able to eat.

The same goes for yeast intolerances. In our experience; dogs that suffer from yeast infections on their skin and in their ears, tend to have a yeast intolerance in their diet, and this is one of the only foods in the UK that has no yeast or animal proteins in it for these sensitive dogs.

Feeding Guidelines and Storage

Suitable as a complete meal for adult dogs from 9-12 months old (small breeds), 12 months (medium/ large breeds), 18 months (giant breeds).

Can also be mixed with your puppy’s current dry food as high in protein. Feed once or twice a day at room temperature. Always keep a bowl of fresh water close by.

Transition your dog over a period of 2 – 3 weeks by slowly reducing the amount of original food and increasing the amount of GIVE A DOG A BEAN each day if feeding meat-based dog food. Each tray weighs 290g. Store in a cool dry place. Once opened, refrigerate and use within 2 days.

Raw fed dogs may require a slightly longer transition to ensure that their gut microbiome can adapt to the increase in natural fibre.
Ideal used as a topper over homemade fresh food or mixed with dry biscuits to offer extra taste and texture.

Save costs by supplementing your dog's daily allowance of Give A Dog A Bean by adding in extra sweet potato, cooked and mashed beans or peas, carrots, tofu, tempeh and quinoa (that is what we do as we share our food with our dog Ruff!)

Daily feeding recommendation:
5 kg: 320 – 365g

10 kg: 540 - 615g

20 kg: 910 – 1030 g

30 kg: 1230 - 1400g

40 kg: 1525 – 1730 g

daily quantity in grams depending on your dog's weight although age, activity, size, season and appetite may all influence the amount you feed your dog.

The science behind Just Be Kind

Every Just Be Kind recipe is built on published veterinary nutrition science. Here are the key studies Dr. Arielle draws on — translated into plain English.

Dr. Arielle's note

"I reference these studies when speaking to sceptical vets about my patients' diets. The evidence for nutritionally complete plant-based feeding has strengthened considerably since 2021."

Taste preference

Plant-based versus meat-based pet foods: Owner-reported palatability behaviours

Proof that vegan dog food diets are as palatable as meat-based or even raw in this significant study carried out during 2020 and published by Prof Andrew Knight in June 2021

Longevity

Largest Study of 2536 dogs showing dogs fed vegan diets were healthiest!

Dogs fed vegan diets clearly had the best health outcomes in this very large-scale study, and these results are consistent with prior studies in this field. – Prof Andrew Knight Sept 2024

Digestion

Dog domestication reveals adaptation to a starch-rich diet

A fascinating study proving how mutations in key genes occurred allowing increased starch digestion in dogs relative to wolves. These results indicate that early ancestors of modern dogs could thrive on a diet rich in starch.

Health Outcomes

Reported Health Benefits of a Vegan Dog Food - Dr Mike Davies (2022)

Davies (2022) surveyed 100 dog guardians who had switched to a nutritionally complete vegan dog food designed by UK vets. "The vegan food was acceptable (palatable), and appetite and body weight were not adversely affected."
