Dried Sprats

Description

What are Dried Sprats
Sprats are small fish (6 to 8cm long) which have been prepared for your dog to eat. They can be fished in many different places in the world, however the Baltic Sea is a common source for European produced sprats.

Air-Dried Sprats
Possibly the most popular form of sprats for dogs. They are gently dried without heat to create a crunchy, crumbly treat for your dog. They are easy to break through and one sprat can be easily broken into four little sections to use as a training treat. You can also sprinkle some broken up sprats across your garden as a fun, mind challenging game.

Benefits of Sprats for Dogs
Sprats have a wealth of health benefits for your dog which include:

• Boosting and maintaining heart function.
• Improving the glossiness of the coat.
• Decreasing itchiness and dryness of the skin.
• Decrease inflammatory processes such as allergies.
• Improve joint health and provide arthritic pain relief.

All of these benefits can be attributed to their high omega-3 content. Omega-3 is an essential fatty acid, which dogs cannot make and must obtain from their food. It is vital for many bodily functions, and a key nutrient for your dog’s diet.

Sprats are nutritionally made up of more than Omega-3 though.

Dried sprats have a relatively high fat content, so if you have a dog which is overweight or has a condition which is worsened by fat, such as pancreatitis or inflammatory bowel disease, you might want to consider a different treat or avoiding dried sprats.
