Description:

Black Hawk High Meat Australian Red Meat Recipe is inspired by the natural prey diet of dogs’ wild ancestors, delivering a nutrient-rich, highly palatable meal with the flavour they crave. 

Featuring 65% red meats including fresh Australian lamb, as well as beef and pork, this premium recipe provides essential proteins for strong muscles and vital minerals like iron, zinc and copper to support healthy body functions. 100% free from poultry ingredients, suitable for dogs that may have a sensitivity to poultry or prefer the flavour of red meats. 

Our gentle cooking process preserves nutrients and enhances palatability while the inclusion of fresh meat contribute to the natural variation in kibble shape and colour. This complete and balanced formula includes fish oil for a glossy coat and joint health, sweet potato/kūmara for fibre and digestion, and prebiotics to support gut health. 

Black Hawk High Meat Australian Red Meat Recipe is suitable for adult and senior dogs of all sizes, as well as puppies (excluding large breed puppies over 30kg at maturity).

    Transitioning to Black Hawk: When changing foods, it is important to do so gradually so your pet gets used to new flavours and textures with minimal risk of digestive upset. We suggest a slow transition over one week, for example: Days 1-2 add 25% new food mixed into existing diet, Days 3-4: 50%, Days 5-6: 75%, Day 7: 100%.  Slow down the mixing rate should your pet exhibit any gastrointestinal distress or avoidance to ensure the transition to their new diet is smooth.

      I never thought I'd have a dog who was fussy over his food but it finally happened with a Laboradore of all breeds. Thank goodness this biscuit came along as feeding raw wasn't an option, this stuff he eats with out any problems. Good price and being 10 kg bags much easier to lift and move.

      We won a bag and I was pleasantly surprised. My dogs usually eat air dried, raw or wet food and don’t usually like dry kibble. However, they did eat this one. I also appreciated that fresh lamb is the first ingredient. Anything that has a higher meat content gives me better peace of mind feeding it to my dogs and this one by Blackhawk has a much higher meat content than a lot of other brands out there.
