I think we’ve made feeding dogs far more complicated than it needs to be.

There’s so much clever marketing and so many fancy words that sometimes we forget to look at what the food actually is.

I’m a big believer in understanding what goes into your dog’s bowl, not just what the front of the pack tells you.

Good food doesn’t need fancy words to make it good.

A small clarification when you hear me say “good gut bacteria”:

There isn’t really a neat list of GOOD bacteria and BAD bacteria.

Many microbes can be completely normal members of the gut community. What matters is the overall ecosystem: which microbes are present, their abundance, what they’re doing, and how they interact with each other and the host.

So when I say “good bacteria”, I’m really talking about a balanced, functional microbial community.

Gut health is far more complicated than adding a few strains from a probiotic tub.

The internet has 47,000 opinions on what your dog should eat.

Rice is essential. Chicken causes allergies. Veggies should fill the bowl. And someone’s cousin’s Labrador lived to 17 on roti and rice.

But nutrition isn’t decided by the loudest WhatsApp group.

Start with the dog. Their biology, nutrient needs, health and individual tolerance should guide the bowl, not human food habits or internet opinions.

Feed the dog in front of you. Understand the biology. Then personalise.

What’s the wildest dog nutrition advice someone has confidently given you?

Grass eating is one of those behaviours we’ve become very quick to diagnose.

Nausea. Fibre deficiency. An upset stomach.

But the research suggests a much more nuanced picture.

In a study of 1,571 plant eating dogs, only 9% were frequently reported to appear unwell beforehand, and only 22% frequently vomited afterwards.

Another controlled study recorded 374 grass eating events with only 2 episodes of vomiting. Interestingly, when researchers induced a mild diarrhoeal GI disturbance, the dogs actually spent less time eating grass.

There are other interesting pieces to the puzzle too. Dogs readily eat grass even when healthy, their grazing appears to be influenced by hunger and time of day, and one published case suggests dietary fibre may influence the behaviour in some dogs.

But none of this gives us one universal explanation.

For me, the more useful question isn't “Does my dog eat grass?”

It's “Has something changed about the way my dog is eating grass?”

Sometimes it may be worth investigating.

Does grass eating mean something? Maybe.

Do we know exactly why dogs do it? Not yet.

Sometimes the bowl looks species appropriate.

There’s plenty of meat, but there’s also pumpkin, carrots, beans, greens and other vegetables.

Then vegetables or fruit are given as snacks through the day too.

Individually, none of this may look like much. Add it all together and plant matter can end up making up a surprisingly large part of the diet.

If your dog has frequent gas or loose stools, take a look at the total amount of plant matter they’re eating in a day.

I generally recommend keeping it to around 10% or less.

More vegetables doesn’t necessarily mean a better diet.

What would your dog give five stars? And what would get one?

16/09/2026

Some dogs genuinely do best on a very simple diet.

There are dogs with medical conditions, food intolerances, sensitive digestive systems or individual needs where keeping things simple can make perfect sense.

But an exception doesn’t need to become the rule for every dog.

Somewhere along the way, feeding the exact same recipe every single day for years became the “safe” way to feed, while introducing different whole foods, proteins and sources of fibre became something pet parents were taught to worry about.

A dog’s digestive system isn’t working alone either. It exists alongside a complex gut microbial community that responds to what reaches it.

So no, this isn’t a call to change your dog’s food every Tuesday just for the sake of it.

It’s simply a question worth asking:

If your dog is healthy, tolerates different foods well and has no medical reason to be restricted, why does eating the exact same food every day for years have to be the default?

A little peek behind the scenes at Georgina’s Kitchen.

Every product we make is produced in small batches, with a lot of attention going into what we source, how we make it and what eventually goes into each pack.

And that same care continues when your order reaches our packing table. The team checks, packs and puts every box together carefully before it leaves us and makes its way to you.

Have we made mistakes? Of course we have. We’re human. But when we do, we fix them, learn from them and try to do better.

There are a lot of hands, a lot of work and a lot of heart behind what might look like a simple box at your doorstep.

We talk a lot about how dogs become part of the family. Turns out, even our microbes agree.

Researchers studying 60 families found that people and the dogs they lived with shared some of the microbes found on their skin. Close contact seems to help shape the microbial communities we live with.

So yes, living together really does rub off on you. Quite literally.

After almost 10 years of doing this, one thing I have become very comfortable saying is, “I don’t know.”

I don’t have all the answers. I don’t think anyone does.

There are dogs I have worked with whom I couldn’t help, and I still think about them. I still wonder whether there was something I missed or something I could have approached differently.

But there are also times when I feel there is another path worth exploring, and I need the pet parent to be willing to explore it with me.

I completely understand the fear that comes after trying one thing after another and watching your dog continue to struggle. Eventually, every new suggestion starts to feel like another risk.

But if you come to me for my perspective, I may not tell you what you were expecting to hear. I may ask you to go back to the beginning. I may question something you have already ruled out. I may suggest looking at the problem completely differently.

That doesn’t mean I am right.

It means I am trying to look at your dog without being tied to the conclusions that have already been made.

I will never promise that I can help every dog.

But if you ask me to try, I need a little room to actually try.
