Kangaroo meat is very low in fat and high in protein, otherwise referred to as a very lean meat. This makes it suitable for all dogs large and small, and particularly those that require a low fat diet.
In addition to the proteins, Kangaroo meat also contains Vitamin B, Omega-3, Iron, and Zinc which are essential for a well-balanced diet. Learn more about these essential nutrients for dogs in our dedicated article.
The high level of protein and other essential nutrients make Kangaroo meat a super healthy natural treat for dogs that support an active lifestyle after running around the park wrestling with buddies.
