Is vegetarian or vegan dog food healthy and safe ?

Yes, vegetarian dog food is healthy and safe for daily use. Unlike cats, dogs are omnivores and can obtain all the nutrients they need from a plant-based diet (omnivorous). A complete vegetarian or vegan dog food provides the right energy, protein sources, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, and meets the European Feeding Standard for Dogs (FEDIAF). For many dogs, a diet without animal protein is even a solution: meat is often the trigger for itching, paw licking, red ears, and intestinal upset, which is less common with plant-based dog food. A large-scale scientific study has associated a plant-based diet with favorable health outcomes compared to meat-based food.

With over 18 years of practical experience, co-founder and veterinarian Erik has found that health problems like itching, diarrhea, and allergic reactions disappear when animal proteins are eliminated. Have a question about our complete food for adult dogs and puppies? Contact us!

Switching to PAWR's vegetarian diet?

Time to switch ? The transition is just as easy as with any other food, often even smoother. Because PAWR is easy to digest and plant-based, we see that dogs usually make the switch easily.

Start with about 25% of the veggie food mixed with their current food and increase this to 100% over about 7 days. Our vegetarian food helps their digestion adjust smoothly to the right nutrition. Feel free to vary between crunchy kibble and dinner recipes with warm water; both are tasty and contain all the nutrients your dog needs. There's no need to combine: each formula is complete daily.

For dogs with allergies, we recommend stopping mixing and switching immediately!

Frequently Asked Questions about Vegetarian Dog Food

If you have any questions, our experts and founders are ready to give you personal advice for your dog.

  • Yes, vegetarian dog food is healthy and safe for everyday use. Dogs are omnivores and can easily obtain nutrients from plant sources. Complete vegetarian dog food provides all essential amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals and complies with the European Feeding Standard for Dogs (FEDIAF).

    Because the food can be formulated to be hypoallergenic, gluten-free, and easily digestible, many dogs with sensitive stomachs or intestines experience peace of mind. Our recipes are developed by a veterinarian and a nutritionist, so you can feed a complete, consistent, and tasty diet—without meat.

  • Yes, as an omnivore, your dog can thrive on vegetarian and vegan kibble, as long as it contains all the necessary nutrients. Plant-based proteins, high-quality fats, and carefully added vitamins and minerals cover all their daily needs.

    In practice, many owners even see benefits: less itching, less paw licking, and more stable stools when animal proteins are eliminated. Pay particular attention to completeness (according to FEDIAF), digestibility, and acceptance; this way, you can be sure your dog is getting everything they need without meat.

  • Yes, with a complete vegetarian dog food, your dog gets all the essential amino acids, fatty acids, and micronutrients. Plant-based proteins are combined for a complete amino acid profile and supplemented with vitamins, minerals, and omega fatty acids in the right proportions. This supports muscle building, energy, skin, and coat. Make sure the recipe is formulated as a complete/daily food according to FEDIAF and that the kibble is well-accepted; this ensures a complete diet without animal protein.

  • Yes, that's right. Vegetarian dog food contains no animal proteins and is therefore naturally hypoallergenic, perfect for dogs with allergies or sensitive stomachs and intestines. Common complaints such as itching, paw licking, red ears, and irregular stools are less common with a plant-based diet. Preferably choose gluten-free, high-quality, easily digestible recipes with sufficient fiber, such as those from PAWR. These support regular digestion and stable stools. This composition is also beneficial for dogs without any symptoms: preventative, balanced nutrition helps maintain intestinal health and immunity daily.

  • Switching over is easy in about 7 days. Start with about 25% vegetarian dog food mixed with your current food and increase the amount daily until you've completely switched over. A splash of lukewarm water can make the kibble extra palatable and aid digestion. During the transition week, monitor your dog's stool, skin, and energy levels; most dogs adapt quickly to plant-based dog food, especially if the formula is hypoallergenic, gluten-free, and easily digestible. After two weeks, you'll often see a calm stomach, and within 6-8 weeks, a significant improvement in their coat and skin.

  • No, vegetarian dog food does not contain meat or fish, while vegan dog food is completely plant-based and therefore does not contain animal ingredients such as eggs and dairy.

    At PAWR, all recipes are 100% vegan and contain no animal products. This further reduces the risk of allergies and ensures that our food is truly animal-friendly!

  • Yes. Plant-based dog food generally has lower CO₂ emissions and requires less land and water than meat-based food. This reduces your dog's environmental footprint without compromising on completeness or taste. It's also an animal-friendly choice: you're feeding without animal protein, while your dog continues to receive all the necessary nutrients. Choose transparent recipes with clear origins and locally produced kibble for the greatest sustainable impact.
