Dandelion root is a fantastic addition to the diets of small animals, offering a variety of health benefits. Rich in fibre, it promotes healthy digestion and helps keep their gut functioning well. The root is also packed with vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, calcium, and potassium, which support overall health and vitality. Dandelion root has natural diuretic properties that can help maintain kidney health and promote proper fluid balance in the body. Additionally, its slightly bitter flavour can stimulate appetite, encouraging your pet to enjoy a diverse diet. Overall, incorporating dandelion root can enhance your small animal's health while providing a tasty and nutritious treat!
Please note, like with all botanicals and herbs, it’s a good idea to introduce them slowly into your pet’s diet to prevent any digestive issues.

The Importance of Treats in Your Small Animal’s Diet
Treats play an important role in your small animal’s overall wellbeing when offered in the right way. More than just a tasty extra, healthy treats can provide mental stimulation, encourage natural foraging behaviours, and help build positive bonds between you and your pet. They can also be a great way to introduce variety and deliver beneficial nutrients alongside a balanced daily diet. Choosing natural, species-appropriate treats—and feeding them in moderation—ensures your small animal enjoys both the flavour and the health benefits, without compromising their nutritional needs.
Can my pet eat these?
We have carefully curated our pet treats and whilst not all treats are suitable for all, hopefully our checklist helps.
