WHY IS HEALTHY WEIGHT SO IMPORTANT?
A UK National Survey Reported That 82% Of Dog Owners Described Their Dog As The ?Ideal Weight?; However, Clinical Studies Have Identified That Up To 65% Of Dogs Have Obesity Or Are Overweight And That The Prevalence Has Been Steadily Increasing (PDSA, 2022).
This Trend Is A Widespread Health Concern As Obesity Is The Most Common Nutritional Disorder Observed In Dogs In Developed Nations (Robertson, 2003; Sandoe Et Al., 2014).
Dogs Are Considered Overweight When They Weigh 10-30% Above Their Ideal Bodyweight. Obesity Is Diagnosed When Their Weight Exceeds 30% Of Their Ideal Bodyweight. Excess Weight Can Adversely Affect Health And Welfare By Increasing The Risk Of Diseases, Causing Functional Impairment, Shortening Life Spans, And Reducing Overall Quality Of Life (Ludd Et Al., 2006).
Diseases And Health Issues Associated With Excess Weight And Obesity In Dogs Include Osteoarthritis And Orthopaedic Disorders, Diabetes Mellitus, Cardiac Dysfunction And Cardiovascular Disease, Dyspnoea, Urinary And Reproductive Disorders, Reduced Life Expectancy, Increased Risk Under General Anaesthetic, Decreased Heat Tolerance, Dermatological Problems, And Difficulty Grooming (German, 2006).
Behavioural Changes Are Often Observed As Overweight Dogs Are Likely To Become Disinclined To Play, Incapable Of Undertaking Frequent, Vigorous Exercise, Spend Increased Time Resting And Require Help Jumping Or Climbing (Bland Et Al., 2009). This Highlights The Importance Of Maintaining A Healthy Weight To Maximise Long-Term Health And Well-Being
FISH PEPTIDES FOR SATIETY TO HELP WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
Studies Have Show That Fish Peptides (Included In The Peptide+ Weight Control & Joint Care Diet) Stimulate An Increase In The Amount Of Anorexigenic (Appetite Suppressing) Hormones, CCK And GLP-1 In The Blood.
A Dog-Simulated Gastrointestinal In Vitro Digestion Model Demonstrated The Promising Effects Of Fish Peptides On The Regulation Of Food Intake And Glucose Metabolism.
In Addition To The Bioactive Peptides Stimulating CCK And GLP1 Release, The Activity Of The Protease Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Enzyme (DPP-IV) Was Inhibited.
Since DPP-IV Targets And Breaks Down Circulating Levels Of GLP-1, Inhibiting Its Activity Could Lead To Prolonged Increases In GLP-1. This Shows The Positive Effects Of Peptides As A
Functional Ingredient In Preventing Or Managing Body Weight (Theysgeur Et Al., 2020).
Short-Term This Induces A Decrease In Food Intake By Increasing The Feeling Of Satiety, And Can Lead To A Decrease In Body Weight Gain. Therefore In The Long Term This May Decrease Adipose Tissue Effectively Reducing Overall Food Intake.

Dogs that suffer from conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, skin diseases, allergies, wind, constipation, diarrhoea, lack of appetite, lack of energy and many chronic health complaints may may be helped by cutting out grains. As it can make your pet feel better and healthier it can also assist with weight loss as they will be more able and willing to run around and exercise.
There is also a growing amount of research to suggest that dogs with sensitive digestions can do well on a grain free diet. Once your vet has ruled out any medical complaint that requires treatment, following a grain free diet may, over a few weeks, make improvements to your dog’s overall state of health – especially to their digestion.
What is the Difference Between Working Dog Food and Normal Dog Food?
The difference between working dog food and normal dog food is often just that working dog food is VAT free. There can also be differences in the feeding guides for the amount of food you should give a pet due to the activity and energy that is used during a working dogs day. 15KG bags can often be labelled as ‘working dog food’ for VAT purposes and not for their nutritional benefits.
At Moorishly our recipes stay the same whatever the size of the bag. Our grain free dog foods offer a range of high protein high quality dog foods with varying fat content which are all listed in our details for each food on the website.
All working dog food is available with free UK delivery
What is the difference Between Gluten free and Grain free Dog food?
Grain free dog food arrived from the gluten-free trend in human food. Many believe like humans grain can cause allergies for dogs however the evidence for this is small. The difference between gluten-free and grain-free pet foods is that gluten is the protein that is found in specific types of grain, such as wheat, barley and rye.
Gluten free food is free of these proteins but not all grain contain gluten. This means that gluten free dog food may or may not be grain free, while grain free dog food will always be gluten free.
Is Grain free dog food better for weight loss?
Although some dogs are more prone to putting on weight than others, weight gain is only possible when the number of calories going in is greater than the amount being used by the dog. Therefore, to stop weight gain, or achieve weight loss, your dog has two options: to eat fewer calories or to burn more – or ideally, both.
We offer a range of grain free dog foods specifically designed for lighter diets or for senior dogs who may not be so active as they used to which means keeping weight off can be difficult for them. We also supply feeding guides to help ensure your pet is fed the recommended daily amount.
How do I change to Grain Free Dog food?
For a successful diet change, we recommend following the feeding pattern below.
The daily feeding amount should be split into two equal amounts and the proportions of new food increased over the first week as illustrated.
TOP TIPS: For those dogs who do not make eating a priority, here are some additional points:
– Reduce the number of tit-bits given during the introductory period
– If your dog has been used to eating wet food, moisten with warm water.DAY 1-2: 75% Original Diet – 25% New Food
DAY 3-4: 50% Original Diet – 50% New Food
DAY 5-6: 25% Original Diet – 75% New Food
DAY 7: 100% New Food
