Why is Pork good for dogs?

Pork is highly digestible and rich in protein, offering dogs a natural source of amino acids, vitamins and minerals, especially good for dogs with sensitivities to more common meats like chicken or beef. Pork is particularly rich in thiamine (vitamin B1), which plays a crucial role in energy production by helping cells convert carbohydrates into energy. It also contains significant amounts of selenium, zinc, and iron, which are all vital for immune function and cell repair. With its excellent palatability and nutrient density, pork is a great addition to any dog’s diet.

Sustainability

At Tuggs, we use nutritious cuts of meat that are often overlooked in the food chain. We include pork heart, liver and trimming in our Pork Power recipe - not only to reduce food waste, but because these ingredients are naturally rich in the nutrients dogs need to thrive. Pork trimming provides high-quality protein and healthy fats to fuel energy and support brain function.Heart is a great source of zinc, selenium, and B vitamins, all of which contribute to a healthy immune system.Liver is one of the most nutrient-dense organ meats available, packed with essential fatty acids, minerals, and vitamins. By making use of these cuts, we’re delivering real nutritional value while helping to make our meals better for the planet.
