Natural, highly compatible alternative - also for allergies & intolerances
Insect food for dogs
More and more dogs are suffering from food intolerance or allergies, especially to classic protein sources such as beef, poultry or lamb. If your dog is allergic or sensitive to common proteins, an elimination diet may be necessary to find the cause and alleviate the symptoms. Insect food for dogs has proven to be an excellent alternative.
Dog food with insect protein isa rare source of protein that many dogs are not allergic to. The food also has a high biological value and a complete amino acid profile that is comparable to classic meat proteins. Insect food is particularly well tolerated and easily digested, making it ideal for sensitive dogs. The food comes from sustainable, resource-saving production and thus protects the environment and the climate.
With insects as a Single protein source you can specifically exclude a protein source that your dog cannot tolerate and at the same time ensure a healthy, balanced diet.
At PERRO you will find high-quality insect food for your dog - from complete dry food to snacks and rewards. All are made from insect protein and are perfect for sensitive dogs or dogs with allergies.

Why insect food is a good choice:
Ideal for allergies & exclusion diets
If a dog is allergic to classic meats or its immune system is hypersensitive to certain proteins, an exclusion diet helps to find out which ingredients are tolerated. Insect protein is rarely allergenic, so it is an excellent basis for safely excluding allergens and providing nutrients at the same time.
High-quality, natural source of protein
Insect protein has a high biological value of approx. 85 %, which means that it contains many essential amino acids that your dog needs for muscle building and metabolism.
Well tolerated & easy to digest
Many dogs with sensitive gastrointestinal tracts or skin problems tolerate insect protein better than conventional protein sources, as it provides rare and therefore less sensitised proteins.
Sustainable & environmentally friendly
The production of insect protein requires significantly fewer resources than that of cattle. For example, up to 95% less CO₂ is produced compared to beef production and water consumption is significantly lower.
Who is insect food suitable for?
- Dogs with known allergies
- Dogs with sensitive digestion
