How to Use Dog Food Mixer

Simple additions can make a meaningful difference to your dog’s health and wellbeing.

What is a mixer and why does it matter?

Dog food mixer is a complementary food designed to be fed alongside suitable wet, raw or home-prepared food.  

Nature’s Harvest Daily Balance Mixer adds crunch, fibre and texture to the bowl and contains FOS prebiotic to support beneficial gut bacteria.  

Because mixer is complementary rather than complete, the amount you feed should be considered alongside the rest of your dog’s daily diet.

How to use it

How much do i feed?

There's no complicated measuring, just a simple addition to support better feeding.

50% wet food / 50% mixer

A 50:50 approach gives equal proportions of wet food and mixer. This can be useful for owners who like a substantial crunchy element alongside wet food.

Use the feeding guidance for both foods to calculate the appropriate overall portion for your dog.

75% wet food / 25% mixer

A 75:25 split keeps wet food as the larger part of the meal while adding a smaller amount of mixer for crunch, fibre and texture.

Again, the quantities should be adjusted so the total daily ration remains appropriate.

What does the Daily Balance Mixer portion cost per day?

Nature’s Harvest Daily Balance Mixer is a complementary food, so how much you feed will depend on the other foods in your dog’s daily diet. The examples below show the approximate cost of the mixer portion only when feeding it alongside our Chicken & Brown Rice wet food.

You can also use Daily Balance Mixer alongside other suitable wet, raw or home-prepared foods, adjusting the amount to suit your dog’s overall diet.

What a balanced bowl looks like

What a balanced bowl looks like

A balanced bowl is about more than simply adding mixer. The important thing is that the total diet provides the right amount of energy and nutrition for your dog.

Daily Balance Mixer is complementary, so it should be combined with suitable foods rather than fed as the sole source of nutrition.

what makes it different

Made with carefully selected ingredients including oats, peas, linseed and seaweed, Daily Balance Mixer provides:

- FOS prebiotic to support beneficial gut bacteria

- fibre from plant-based ingredients

- omega fatty acids from linseed

- minerals and trace elements from seaweed

- a crunchy texture that complements softer foods

Because healthy dogs make happy homes

At Nature’s Harvest, we believe feeding well doesn’t need to be complicated.

It’s about making thoughtful choices and small additions that support your dog's overall well-being.
