🐾 Giving Back to Those Who Need It Most 🐾

At Nala Health, we believe that every dog deserves a full belly, a wagging tail, and a loving home. That’s why we proudly support Mdzananda Animal Clinic in Khayelitsha—a place where hope is restored for countless dogs in need.
Today, we’re celebrating a special reunion with Simba, one of Mdzananda’s rescues who found his second chance at life. When Simba was taken in, he was malnourished and struggling, but thanks to the incredible work of Mdzananda and the power of proper nutrition, he’s now thriving! 💛🐶

Meet Togo 🐶 a stunning 15-month-old Australian Shepherd who used to struggle with IBD, frequent vomiting, and bloody stools. He had little energy, no focus during training, and just wasn’t enjoying life. 💔

Then came Nala Health… and everything changed!

After just a few weeks on our nutrient-packed, gut-friendly food, Togo’s condition stabilised so much that his medication is being tapered down. Now, he’s happier, more active, thriving during training, and loving life! 🐕💚
As his dog mum Lisbeth says: “Nala Health was truly Togo’s saviour!”

Seeing dogs regain their spark is why we do what we do! 🥰

What’s in your dog’s bowl matters! 🐕✨ Here’s what to look for on the ingredients list to make the best decision for your furry friend:

1️⃣ Quality Protein: Look for NAMED sources like black soldier fly larvae, ostrich, or lamb. 🚫 Avoid vague terms like "meat meal," "by-products," or "fish meal," which often include low-grade, less digestible parts. The best protein comes from animals raised on a clean diet, free from antibiotics and hormones.
2️⃣ Healthy Fats: Omega-3 and omega-6 support a sharp mind and glossy coat. 🧠 Find these in marine algae, coconut oil, flaxseeds, and non-GMO canola oil. 🥥🌿 Stay away from rendered animal fats or fats labeled generically, as they may be lower in quality and heavily processed.
3️⃣ Complex Carbs: Gluten-free grains like millet and sorghum and vegetables like sweet potato provide sustained energy and are easy on tummies. 🌾🍠 Avoid cheap fillers like corn/maize, wheat or soy, which offer little nutritional value and may cause digestive issues. 🚫
4️⃣ Vitamins & Minerals: Ensure your dog eats a complete, balanced diet packed with nutrients to support overall health.
5️⃣ No Harmful Additives: Avoid foods with sugar, artificial colours, flavours, and fillers—your pup deserves better! 🚫 Skip options with artificial preservatives or excessive salt, which can harm your dog over time.

💚 A healthy dog is a happy dog! 🐶🦴

🌍🐛 Sustainability at its Best: An Inside Look at Maltento 🐛🌍

Ever wondered what makes insect farming one of the most sustainable ways to feed the planet? We sat down with Dean from Maltento, the farm behind the innovative black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) protein in Nala Health dog food. Here's what makes it extraordinary:

🔄 Zero Waste: Every part of the BSFL is used—nothing goes to waste! This means we’re making the most out of nature's incredible resources.

🌱 Efficient Crop Cycles: With 52 harvests a year (yes, one a week!), BSFL farming is far more efficient than traditional farming methods.

💧 Water-Wise: The farm only uses water for sanitation and washing, making it one of the most water-efficient forms of protein production.

🌾 Local Food Waste: BSFL thrive on agricultural byproducts and food waste, converting them into high-quality protein and fertilizer, creating a circular economy. The BSFL at Maltento primarily eats spent grains from local breweries.

🌍 Carbon Footprint Heroes: BSFL farming has a significantly lower CO2 output compared to traditional livestock farming, helping to reduce the carbon footprint of pet food.

By choosing Nala Health, you’re not just giving your dog allergy-friendly, nutrient-rich food—you’re also supporting a greener, healthier planet. 💚🐾

Is your dog a fussy eater? 🐶 While flavour preferences might be to blame, there could be deeper reasons behind their picky habits. Let’s uncover some surprising causes of selective eating:

🩺 Health Issues
Picky eating can sometimes signal discomfort—dental pain, gut problems, or allergies may be making mealtime unpleasant for your dog. Always start by ruling out health concerns with your vet.

🍭 Dietary Indiscretion
Too many treats or table scraps can spoil your dog’s appetite for regular meals. Over time, they might learn to hold out for something tastier, leaving their nutritious food untouched.

🐶 Breed Tendencies
Certain breeds, especially smaller or toy dogs like Chihuahuas or Maltese, are known for being naturally selective eaters. It’s just one of their unique quirks!

🕒 Feeding Habits
An inconsistent schedule or chaotic mealtime environment can make eating stressful for dogs. A calm setting and routine can work wonders in encouraging regular eating.

In our latest episode of Paws and Reflect, we explore how mental health impacts your dog’s behavior and why it’s essential to meet their emotional needs.

We’ll also dive into the concept of a “Hedonic Budget” – think of it as your dog’s daily “happy balance” of exploring, playing, and cuddling. Just like us, dogs need a mix of activities to stay mentally and emotionally balanced 🧠🐶 swipe to see your dog’s Hedonistic Budget.

With more dogs becoming overweight, this growing concern is something every pet parent should know about. Even a small 10% increase in your dog’s weight can have a huge impact on their health. For a 20kg dog, just 2 extra kilos can seriously affect their quality of life—leading to joint issues, heart problems, and a shorter lifespan. 😢

It’s not always easy to tell if your dog is overweight. If you’re not sure - Swipe 👉 to see a chart and find out if your dog’s at a healthy weight.
