Opal Pets is a supplement that caretakers use to cook nutritionally complete homemade meals for their dogs.

All dogs deserve the variety and health benefits of homemade, fresh meals. However, not all homemade diets are created equal. Perfect Powder supplement is formulated to avoid the nutritional deficiencies of a homemade diet with clean ingredients and a tasty, savory flavor.

Advantages of homemade meals with Opal Pets:

  1. Nutritionally complete meal
    • Your dog is getting 100% of nutrients from a home-cooked diet
    • If you cook dog food at home without any supplements, you must ensure that your dog is getting enough of:
      • Taurine & L-Carnitine
      • Methionine
      • Essential B vitamins
      • Choline
      • Vitamin D2
      • Omega-3 fatty acids
    • These are rare nutrients, which is why supplementing is the best way to provide these nutrients for anyone cooking dog food at home
  1. Full control over the ingredients
    • Cooking dog meals at home gives you the ability to select the ingredients you want
      • You can include the ingredients your dog likes, and exclude those your dog doesn’t like
      • For example, you can include sweet potato and green peas, and exclude corn and wheat if your dog is allergic to them
  2. Variety
    • By cooking dog food at home, you have many options when it comes to formulating various flavours, so your dog can always have something different, which adds excitement and energy to your dog
  3. Affordable shipping
    • Cooking dog food at home and supplementing is an affordable way to feed your dog because you only pay for the shipping of vitamins and minerals, which are small in weight. The majority of the weight (and of the shipping cost) in dry kibble or canned food comes from other ingredients, but since you cook at home, you buy all other ingredients from the local store and don’t have to pay for shipping of those ingredients.

Transition Tips

Gradual transition is the key to a successful transition.

Start by mixing 1 part of new food and 4 parts of old food.

During the next 2 weeks, gradually increase the amount of new food to 100%.

Older pets and picky eaters may need longer time and extra care to completely switch.

Digestive Enzymes can be used to harden up stool during transition.

Nutritional Yeast has a cheesy flavour, which cats and dogs love.

Hydration

Provide ample water to cats and dogs, and especially male cats due to their urinary anatomy.

Water aids with digestion and helps to avoid urinary issues. Water flushes out pathogens, heavy metals, and harmful drugs. 

Soak dry kibble in water to make moist food with 1:1 ratio (1 part kibble to 1 part water), and wait for at least 30 min before serving.

Use distilled water whenever possible.

Incorporate wet canned food for better hydration. Mix wet food with dry kibble to increase moisture level.

Use an electric water fountain to entice pets to drink more water.

Care Instructions

Store in a dark, cool place, tightly sealed.

For canned food: after opening, remove remaining leftovers and put into an airtight container for up to 3 days, keep it in the fridge. It can also be portioned out and frozen for later use or served as a frosty treat!

Brush your furry friends' teeth regularly.

Offer dental treats after moist food or add several dry kibbles to help scrape off the plague.

Monitor pH of your pet's urine - more info on this page.
