BugBell develops dog food that not only tastes good, but also specifically supports the health of dogs - for example with digestive problems, skin sensitivities or susceptibility to stress. The food is based on alternative proteins - a particularly well-tolerated, hypoallergenic and sustainable alternative to meat. Depending on the variety, functional ingredients are added such as psyllium husks, hemp, green-lipped mussel, monk's pepper, hawthorn, black cumin and much more - with very specific health benefits.

My "pancreas-plagued" dog is doing well with it so far and he seems to like it too!
Iris with Oris
No more dull coat at last! After a few weeks with the insect dog food, we have noticed a clear change in our dog's coat. It has become much shinier and healthier. Our dog's health is really good!

With BugbBell Belly Vital we have finally found a food that our dog with chronic enteropathy and intolerances tolerates well and, above all, that does not contain potato, sweet potato or rice - but instead contains certain additives such as pre-/probiotics, FOS and MOS that support the intestinal flora.

FAQs: your questions about BugBell
Alternative proteins in dog food come from sources other than traditional meat products such as beef, chicken or pork. These include insects, bacteria, plants (such as chickpeas or lentils) and lab-grown meat. These sources are considered more sustainable alternatives to conventional meat as they require fewer resources to produce and often have a lower environmental impact.
Food with alternative proteins can offer several benefits, including a reduced environmental impact and an alternative for dogs with specific meat allergies or intolerances. Many dogs with food allergies or intolerances react to certain proteins in their diet. Alternative protein sources can be an excellent option as they are less likely to trigger allergic reactions and allow for an elimination diet to identify the allergens.
Start with a slow introduction of the new food by gradually mixing it with the previous food over a period of about 7-10 days. This will help your dog's gastrointestinal tract adapt to the new food and minimize the risk of indigestion.
Insects and vegetable proteins taste different to conventional meat. As dogs are also creatures of habit, there may be a certain reluctance at first. It may take some time for the dog to get used to the new food. However, it is not uncommon for dogs to fall in love with the new source.
Functional ingredients are specially selected components that offer health benefits over and above the basic nutrients. These include, for example, vitamin B components that ensure a shiny coat and healthy skin, probiotics to support healthy intestinal flora or essential oils to strengthen the natural defense against parasites. These ingredients can help to prevent atypical symptoms such as severe itching or eating feces and improve your dog's quality of life.
Absolutely! Functional dog food can be used not only to treat certain health problems, but also as a preventative measure for healthy dogs. It offers an optimized nutrient supply and helps dogs to maintain their general health and vitality.
The length of time may vary from dog to dog, but many owners report positive changes after just 2-3 weeks of feeding functional dog food. It is important to give the food continuously to achieve long-term results and promote the dog's health.
