Some dogs are sensitive to dairy products, which can cause itching, ear infections, and digestive upset. This meal uses coconut oil instead of any dairy-based fats and pairs it with gentle white fish for a completely dairy-free dinner. Coconut oil provides medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) which are easy to digest and provide quick energy. It's a clean, allergen-free meal for dogs with multiple sensitivities.
