The Benefits of Stinte for Your Dog

Smelts offer a healthy and particularly tasty reward for dogs. Due to their richness in Omega 3 fatty acids, they strengthen your dog's immune system, support brain function and contribute to the health of fur and hair. As an additional source of high-quality proteins and other important nutrients, they promote your animal's well-being. Their pleasant structure promotes your dog's natural chewing behavior when chewing and also strengthens the jaw muscles and teeth.

How are smelts made into a chew snack?

Smelts are small, silvery fish that belong to the salmon family. They are caught from the water, carefully selected and thoroughly cleaned. They are then gently air-dried whole at 95°. The long drying process removes moisture from them, which increases their shelf life. This process also preserves natural aromas and nutrients, which means their delicious taste is preserved. The bones become so tender that they can be eaten without any problems. The remaining consistency is crispy and firm and is an appealing chewing pleasure for your dog.

Our Masterfeed smelts, like all our products, are a purely natural product that is free from artificial additives or flavour enhancers.

For which dogs are smelts suitable as a chew snack?

Smelt as a chew snack is generally suitable for all dogs who do not have a specific allergy to fish. They are an ideal option for dogs with allergies to conventional meat chews, as well as dogs with digestive problems or sensitive stomachs. Since they are small fish, they are also ideal for young dogs, small dogs and dogs with jaw problems. They are therefore a healthy snack option for dogs of all ages and sizes.
