About Us
You ever heard of that? Sometimes there are moments that change everything. In our case it was the moment we met Eddie. Black Labrador Shepherd mix from the Berlin shelter, with drooping ears and sad eyes. Our motivation to develop healthy plant-based dog food.
The Vegan Dog
To feed a dog vegan is relatively easy if you deal with the nutritional needs of dogs. A balanced vegan dog diet requires a protein source, carbohydrates, vegetables, oil and a dietary supplement for home-cooked food.

Vegan dog food from Vegan4Dogs – Plant-based. Healthy. Good for everyone.
More and more dog parents are choosing sustainable and healthy dog food – completely free from animal ingredients. At Vegan4Dogs, you will find high-quality vegan dog food that fully meets your dog's nutritional needs – developed with veterinarians, tested in independent laboratories and proven in everyday use.
Our products, such as the popular Greta dry food or Pauline wet food, are not only tasty but also particularly easy to digest – ideal for dogs with food allergies, sensitive digestion or special dietary requirements.
What is vegan dog food?
Vegan dog food consists exclusively of plant-based ingredients – free from meat, fish, dairy products, eggs and insect protein. Instead, we use nutrient-rich ingredients such as lentils, peas, potatoes, linseed and hemp seeds. With added minerals, vitamins and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids from algae, our food meets 100% of your dog's nutritional needs – without compromising on health or taste.
You can find out more about the benefits of plant-based dog nutrition in our blog.
Why can dogs be fed a vegan diet?
A vegan diet for dogs is not only possible, but can also be healthy and nutritious if put together correctly. Dogs are naturally omnivores and have a digestive tract that can utilise both plant and animal nutrients. Unlike cats, which are pure carnivores, dogs can adapt their diet flexibly.
Several scientific studies have shown that dogs can obtain all the nutrients they need from a well-balanced plant-based diet. For example, a study published in 2022 (Vegan versus meat-based dog food: Guardian-reported health outcomes in 2,536 dogs, after controlling for canine demographic factors, Knight, Andrew et al., Heliyon, Volume 10, Issue 17, e35578) showed that a vegan diet is safe and healthy for adult dogs when essential nutrients such as amino acids, vitamins (especially B12) and fatty acids are supplemented. Further research also confirms that dogs can be switched to a balanced vegan diet without any health risks.
A plant-based diet not only offers health benefits such as reduced exposure to animal proteins, but is also particularly suitable for dogs with allergies or intolerances to certain animal ingredients. In addition, vegan dog food makes an important contribution to animal welfare and reducing the ecological footprint.
At Vegan4Dogs, our products ensure that your dog receives all the essential nutrients it needs – so you can feed it a sustainable, healthy and nutritionally complete vegan diet.
Vegan food for allergies or intolerances
Many dogs today suffer from food allergies, which manifest themselves in skin problems, itching or digestive issues. The main causes of these problems can be animal proteins such as beef or chicken. Our vegan dog food avoids these triggers and relies on particularly well-tolerated plant-based proteins.
Vegan4Dogs: Developed in collaboration with animal nutrition experts
The Vegan4Dogs products in our shop are scientifically based, developed in collaboration with animal nutrition experts and based on sound nutritional findings. The result is a complete dog food that combines health, animal welfare and environmental protection – whether as vegan dry food or vegan wet food.
Our recipes are:
- 100% plant-based and contain only gluten-free ingredients
- ideal for food allergies
- free from artificial colours, flavourings and preservatives
- particularly environmentally friendly thanks to sustainable packaging
- climate-friendly – with a lower carbon pawprint
Vegan dry food – wholesome plant-based nutrition in crunchy form
Dry food is one of the most popular types of food among dog parents – and for good reason: it is convenient to use, has a long shelf life and is easy to portion. It also has a firm consistency in the bowl and provides many dogs with an enjoyable chewing experience.
Our vegan dry food Greta offers all these benefits – without any animal ingredients. It consists of carefully selected plant-based ingredients such as peas, lentils, sunflower seeds, carrots, pumpkin and flaxseed. Our vegan dry food Greta offers all these advantages – without any animal ingredients. It consists of carefully selected plant-based ingredients such as peas, lentils, sunflower seeds, carrots and beetroot and is free from artificial additives, colourings and flavour enhancers. At the same time, it provides your dog with all the essential nutrients it needs for an active, healthy life – including high-quality plant-based proteins, omega fatty acids, vitamins and minerals.
Vegan dry food is ideal for daily feeding and is particularly well tolerated – even by dogs with allergies or sensitive digestion. The crunchy consistency also supports dental care.
Discover our vegan dry food variety Greta – natural, nutritious and wholesome.
Vegan wet food – juicy, balanced and easily digestible
Wet food has a significantly higher moisture content than dry food, making it particularly juicy, aromatic and easy to digest. Many dogs love its soft consistency and intense flavour – and wet food is often well suited to older dogs or those with sensitive teeth.
Our vegan wet food Pauline consists exclusively of plant-based ingredients and offers a complete, nutritious meal in every portion. High-quality vegetables and grains such as lentils, peas, pumpkin and oatmeal are combined with healthy oils, algae and carefully selected micronutrients.
It contains no animal products, no soy, no gluten – and, of course, no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives. This makes our vegan wet food particularly easy to digest and a suitable choice for dogs with allergies or on exclusion diets.
Whether as a complete meal or in combination with dry food, our wet food provides variety in the bowl while delivering all the important nutrients for a healthy dog life.

Low-purine food – relief for kidneys and metabolism
Low-purine dog food is particularly important for dogs that suffer from certain diseases such as leishmaniasis or have genetic metabolic defects – for example, Dalmatians. Purines are components in food that are broken down into uric acid in the body. Excessively high purine levels can lead to the formation of urinary stones, putting strain on the kidneys and urinary tract.
With low-purine food, such as Greta, you can significantly reduce the risk of such health problems. Our vegan recipe at Vegan4Dogs deliberately avoids purine-rich animal proteins and instead relies on easily digestible plant-based protein sources such as potatoes, peas and lupins. These provide all the necessary nutrients without putting unnecessary strain on the kidneys.
A low-purine diet is not only a sensible preventive measure for dogs at increased risk, but also supports your four-legged friend's general health by reducing the strain on their metabolism and kidneys. Vegan4Dogs offers a specially formulated dry food called Greta, which is low in purines and balanced to give your dog a long, healthy life.
Vegan dog snacks – delicious plant-based treats
Our vegan snacks, such as Olaf and Lorelai, provide plant-based support for your dog's health – without any animal ingredients.
Olaf, our dental care snack, helps to clean teeth naturally and supports oral hygiene thanks to its special shape and consistency.
Lorelai combines high-quality plant-based ingredients such as potato flakes and peanut butter with fragrant herbs such as thyme and rosemary – ideal for a tasty snack between meals.
Both snacks are easily digestible, grain-free and contain no artificial additives.
For anyone who wants to feed their dog a conscious and healthy plant-based diet – even beyond their main food.

Curly Keep Nourished – Omega-3 oil for dogs with DHA & EPA from algae
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for a well-balanced vegan diet for dogs – especially the long-chain fatty acids DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). These are important for your dog's heart, brain, eyes and immune system. Since vegetable oils such as linseed or hemp oil only provide these forms in precursors, we have developed Curly, a purely vegan omega-3 oil from microalgae that contains directly usable DHA and EPA – without any fish.
Curly is obtained from sustainably cultivated microalgae, is free of pollutants, heavy metals and microplastics, and contains precisely measured amounts of valuable omega-3 fatty acids per serving. The oil is tasteless, well tolerated and easy to add to food – ideal as a daily supplement to meet your dog's needs.
Whether in homemade dog food or as a supplement to our dry and wet food, Curly provides your dog with the omega-3 fatty acids it needs for a healthy, active life. For vegan dogs, for sensitive four-legged friends, for a sustainable future.
