Is Wolfworthy Dog Food Yeast-Free? Here’s What You Need to Know
Updated
Wolfworthy recipes are free from added yeast and are carefully formulated to help support dogs prone to yeast issues.
How Can Wolfworthy Help?
Yeast infections in dogs are often linked to diets high in sugars and starchy ingredients such as rice, white potatoes, wheat, and corn. These can create the ideal conditions for yeast already present in your dog’s body to multiply.
Wolfworthy helps manage this by offering:
High Meat and Fish Content, Low Carbohydrate Recipes Both recipes are rich in animal protein and low in carbohydrates, helping to avoid feeding yeast growth and supporting overall health.
No Added Yeast Our food contains no added yeast, reducing potential dietary triggers for dogs with sensitivities.
Free from High-Starch Ingredients Wolfworthy excludes common starch-heavy ingredients often linked to yeast issues, including rice, maize, wheat, and white potatoes.
Did You Know? Dietary yeast itself does not cause yeast infections in dogs. The real issue is often high sugar or starch content in food, which can encourage yeast overgrowth.
Common Causes of Yeast Infections in Dogs
Diet High-sugar and high-starch foods - like rice, potatoes, corn, honey, and syrups - can promote yeast overgrowth.
Hormonal Imbalances Conditions like hypothyroidism, Cushing’s disease, and diabetes can increase a dog’s risk of yeast infections.
Breed Susceptibility Certain breeds such as West Highland White Terriers, Basset Hounds, Cocker Spaniels, Maltese, Poodles, and Dachshunds are more prone to yeast issues.
Skin Allergies and Conditions Dogs with allergic skin diseases may produce more skin oils, creating an environment where yeast can thrive.
If you suspect your dog has a yeast infection, always speak to your vet for professional advice and diagnosis.
