Little Kibbles: Why We Made our Lucy Pet Foods™ Formulas for Small Breed Dogs
Lucy Pet Foods™ Small Bites Salmon, Pumpkin and Quinoa formula uses our advanced P.B.F. Prebiotic Balanced Fiber™ to produce an optimal environment in the digestive tract for improving gut health and wellness in small breeds. Our dry food for smaller dogs is smaller than our regular formulas as it’s made with the size of the dog’s jaw in mind. Our P.B.F. formulation is based on 40 years of research and studies by one of the top scientists in animal nutrition, Dr. George C Fahey.
Dogs and salmon go great together, which is why the number one ingredient in our Salmon, Pumpkin, and Quinoa Formula is Deboned Salmon from the USA. This formula also includes chicken meal from the U.S., chickpeas (rich in protein and complex carbohydrates, including starches and fibers), delicious pumpkin (a nutritional powerhouse featuring fiber that helps aid in healthy digestion), and quinoa (a premium, digestible seed rich in protein and essential amino acids).
This grain-free formula offers a superfood blend of antioxidants and our proprietary prebiotic fiber blend to support a healthy immune system. Our food is also naturally preserved, includes all the important vitamins and minerals, and does not contain any ingredients from China.
When transitioning your dog to our higher fiber diet, some noticeable changes in stool value may occur. This reflects a healthier digestive tract. We recommend that transitioning to Lucy Pet foods be done over a five-day period.
As your pet is consuming a higher fiber diet, it is normal to observe an increased consumption of drinking water on a regular basis. Water is very important to overall health. Be sure that a bowl of freshwater is always available to your pet.

What Makes Lucy Pet The Best Grain-Free Salmon, Pumpkin & Quinoa Dog Food for Small Breeds?
Lucy Pet Foods™ Small Bites Salmon, Pumpkin & Quinoa Grain-Free formula features deboned salmon from the USA. This isn’t salmon-flavored dog food—it’s premium salmon combined with a complex carbohydrate superstar, chickpeas, for added protein, starch, and fiber. Our grain-free salmon formula also contains pumpkin, sourced from the USA, a delicious nutritional powerhouse featuring fiber that helps aid in healthy digestion.
And instead of packing your pet’s food with simple grains, Lucy Pet Foods uses another popular superfood, quinoa, well-known for its essential amino acids. But perhaps best of all, these healthy, premium ingredients are naturally preserved — nothing artificial — and include our superfood blend of antioxidants along with a proprietary prebiotic fiber blend created to support a healthy immune system.
That’s what makes Lucy Pet’s grain-free salmon dog food a true formula for life!

Feeding Guidelines

Dogs can eat pumpkin, as it offers excellent nutritional value. While your pet is transitioning to Lucy Pet’s Formulas for Life diet, please be sure to follow the suggested guidelines below.
How to Transition to Lucy Pet Formulas for Life ™
The key to switching foods is to do it gradually, so your dog’s digestive system can adapt to our formula and nutrients.
Start by replacing 20-25% of the current food you are feeding with Lucy Pet Formulas for Life. Each day, gradually increase the amount of new food and decrease the amount of the former food until your pet is eating only the new diet.
If your pet tends to have a sensitive stomach, allow up to 10-14 days to fully transition to Lucy Pet’s Formulas for Life (TM)
In some instances, a pet can experience soft stools during the first week when you switch and transition to any new food. Lucy Pet Formulas for Life, digest easily and most pets transition smoothly. However, if your pet’s stool becomes loose, it may be necessary to transition more gradually to the new diet.
Be sure to temporarily eliminate any treats or wet food for the first few days, and follow feeding guidelines closely. Lucy Pet diets may require different feeding quantities than the food you were previously feeding.
