Your Labrador FAQs, answered

What's the best dog food for Labradors with hip dysplasia?

Labradors with hip dysplasia benefit from Lyka meals containing anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil and sardines, and superfood antioxidants to reduce painful swelling and minimise cell damage.

What's the best dog food for Labrador's with arthritis?

Nutrition plays a crucial role in managing arthritis in Labradors by providing joint-supporting nutrients and reducing inflammation. Lyka meals are formulated with omega-3 fatty acids to support joints and improve mobility.

Arthritis and joint issues are often affected by excess weight or obesity. Maintaining your dog’s healthy weight can alleviate pressure on their joints. Lyka custom-portioned meals can support your dog’s weight management without compromising on nutrition, taste, or satiety.

Mussel Munchies and Lamb Straws from our treat range contain sources of glucosamine or chondroitin, great for joint and cartilage health.

How much should a Labrador eat?

Around a quarter of Labradors have a genetic mutation that makes them feel hungry all the time and reduces their energy use, making it easy to pile on the pounds. This means portion control is vital for Labradors who often beg for more food or scavenge for scraps.

Lyka’s meals are custom portioned to provide complete and balanced nutrition without risking weight gain. Each meal contains high-quality proteins, dietary fibre from fruit and vegetables, and a low glycaemic load to maintain steady energy levels and support your dog’s feelings of fullness.

Why is Lyka the best dog food for Labradors with itchy skin?

If your Labrador constantly licks themselves, gnaws their paws and tail, or has chronic ear infections, they may have a food sensitivity, allergy, or intolerance.

Allergies activate your dog’s immune system, which is mostly regulated by their gut microbiome. Lyka real food is designed to promote balance and diversity in your Labrador’s microbiome, to improve their immune function and nourish their skin. Each ingredient is chosen for its benefits like anti-histaminic shiitake mushrooms, anti-inflammatory spirulina, and omega-3 from fish oil. Lyka meals also include skin-loving zinc, omega-6 from safflower oil, and vitamin E oil to boost their skin barrier.

What is the best Labrador puppy food?

Puppies need food that contains the right amount of nutrients to support their physical and mental growth at a healthy rate.

Contrary to popular belief, puppies don’t need special puppy food if their diet is already nutrient-rich and contains an appropriate amount and balance of calcium and phosphorus, making Lyka the ideal food.
