The fur:
You might have heard that rabbit is the natural dewormer, and this is due to rabbit fur being an insoluble fibre. This means as the fur travels through your dogs digestive system it brushes off and pushes out any nasties in there, for example undigested food or worms. The fur is also a good stool firmer, firmer stools improve anal gland health.
Rabbit is considered a ‘novel’ protein, it is harder to come by than your average mince due to there being a limited supply. This makes rabbit a good product for pooches with allergies as it introduces a source of protein to the diet that they haven’t been exposed to in the past. Allergic reactions can develop from overconsumption of products, so a break in the diet with products such as rabbit can help with overall digestive health.
