Omuu is formulated using premium insect protein, a highly digestible novel protein that provides all of the essential amino acids dogs need to maintain healthy muscles, organs and immune function. Because insect protein is a less common protein source, it is an excellent option for many dogs with food sensitivities while also offering a more sustainable alternative to traditional animal proteins. Highly digestible and nutrient-rich, it allows your dog to absorb the nutrition they need to thrive.

1. Insect Protein
2. Oral Care
Dental disease is one of the most common health conditions affecting adult dogs. Omuu contains sodium hexametaphosphate, a scientifically recognised ingredient that binds calcium in saliva to help reduce plaque mineralisation and tartar formation. By helping to slow the build-up of tartar with every meal, Omuu supports better oral health as part of your dog’s daily nutrition.
3. Digestive Health
A healthy gut is at the centre of your dog’s overall wellbeing. Omuu combines highly digestible insect protein with a carefully selected blend of prebiotic fibres, including chicory root, psyllium husk and naturally occurring insect chitin, to nourish the beneficial bacteria living within the digestive tract. A healthy microbiome supports efficient digestion, healthy stool quality, nutrient absorption and plays an important role in supporting the immune system.
4. Skin & Coat
Healthy skin begins with the right nutrition. Omuu provides a balanced blend of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids from salmon oil and linseed to help strengthen the skin’s natural barrier and maintain a soft, healthy coat. Combined with a highly digestible novel protein source, this carefully balanced recipe helps support dogs prone to food-related skin sensitivities while providing the nutrients needed for healthy skin and coat throughout life.
5. Kidney Support
Healthy kidneys are essential for filtering waste products and maintaining your dog’s overall health. Omuu is formulated with a moderate phosphorus level to help avoid excessive dietary phosphorus intake while still meeting the nutritional needs of healthy adult dogs. This balanced approach supports lifelong kidney health and reflects our philosophy of promoting long-term wellbeing through nutrition.

Every day, your dog’s body is exposed to oxidative stress as part of normal metabolism. Omuu is enriched with natural antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, to help protect cells from free radical damage and support normal immune function. By helping defend the body’s cells, antioxidants contribute to healthy ageing and overall vitality throughout your dog’s life.

General nutrition questions
Why does Omuu food contain grains?
It is a common misconception that dogs are allergic to grains. Allergies in dogs are caused by reactions to the proteins in their food. Beef, Chicken and Lamb are the most common protein that cause allergies. Grains are packed full of essential vitamins and minerals. Both white and brown rice are the grains used in Omuu and it is a vital source of energy for your dog. The only breed of dog known to suffer from grain related allergies is the Irish Red Setter. A genetic condition known as gluten sensitive enteropathy which is actually a rare condition.
My dog suffers from gastrointestinal issues (vomiting/diarrhoea). Can the proteins in my dog food cause this also?
Yes, the proteins in your dog’s diet can also causes reactions in your dogs gut. AFR (adverse food reactions) can be either an allergic reaction (allergy) or a food intolerance (most common). This will present itself with many different clinical signs such as vomiting or diarrhoea. But it can also cause more vague signs such as flatulence.
Do dogs eat insects?
Dogs are naturally omnivores. Many people liken domesticated dogs to wolves, their ancestors. However, due to breeding, humans have genetically changed dogs. We now know that dogs have enzymes to break down carbohydrates (known as amylase). We see wild dogs rummage through bins and even eat insects in the wild. However, it is impractical to compare domesticated dogs to wild free roaming dogs, since domesticated dogs are now living longer, heathier lives due to better understanding of nutrition and more advanced Veterinary care. To put this into perspective, a wolf in the wild will live between 6-8 years. A wolf in captivity will live between 14-17 years.
Is Insect protein Vegan?
No, insects are still an animal product. However, if you don’t eat meat based products due to cruelty then insect protein is a much better alternative and it is a more ethical practice than your traditional farming.
If you don’t eat meat based products due to the environmental impacts then again, insect protein is a more sustainable protein source.
Is a raw diet good for my dog
There is a lot of debate currently on the use of raw food diets. In the Veterinary community we do not advocate a raw diet due to a number of reasons.
It is difficult to be sure that your homemade raw food contains all of the nutrients needed for your dog. This can lead to different deficiencies which can be detrimental to your dogs health. Many raw diets advocate the use of bones/egg shells which can easily get lodged in many parts of the dogs body which usually ends up needing surgery to remove. You may also be introducing harmful bacteria into your dogs gut with the use of raw food, such as salmonella, campylobacter or clostridium to name a few. This poses a risk to humans too as dogs with a very pathogenic form of salmonella can easily spread it in the environment.
Why does Omuu petfood contains chicken fats and fish oils
Omuu petfood is constantly researching how to develop more sustainable recipes. Omuu believes in the health benefits of the recipe and we want to make sure your dog enjoys the taste of it too. We are constantly researching new ways to balance the nutrients/palatability with environmental impacts.
