How to Choose the Right DIBO Protein for Your Dog

A Practical Guide to Matching Your Dog’s Needs With the Best DIBO Raw Meals

Understanding Your Dog’s Dietary Needs

Choosing the right DIBO protein starts with understanding your dog’s age, activity level, sensitivity, and digestive tolerance. Puppies and active dogs often thrive on richer proteins like beef or turkey because they provide higher natural fats for energy. Adult dogs with balanced activity do well on lamb or chicken, which offer steady, nutrient-dense meals without overwhelming the stomach. Sensitive or allergy-prone dogs benefit from single protein options such as lamb, duck, or venison, making it easier to pinpoint and eliminate triggers. For dog owners wanting a deeper overview of the full DIBO range, you can explore every protein type in our complete breakdown here: Exploring the Full DIBO Raw Dog Food Range.

“Dogs benefit most when their diet is tailored to their individual needs. Lighter proteins like turkey and duck support digestion and sensitivities, while richer meats such as beef and salmon are ideal for active dogs needing more energy. The goal is not one perfect protein but the right protein at the right time.”

Choosing Proteins for Sensitive Stomachs

If your dog has a delicate digestive system, selecting the right DIBO protein can make a dramatic difference. Lighter, low-fat proteins such as turkey, duck, or lamb are typically much easier to digest and help maintain consistent stool quality. These proteins reduce the risk of flare-ups in sensitive dogs and support a gentler transition to raw feeding.

For dogs needing extra digestive help, natural tripe-based meals are especially beneficial because they provide natural enzymes and gut-friendly nutrients. You can read more about the benefits of tripe in our focused guide: Benefits of Feeding Freeflow Tripe to Dogs

Balancing Variety and Consistency With DIBO Proteins

Variety is important in raw feeding but should be introduced gradually and with purpose. Most dogs benefit from a stable base protein—such as lamb or beef—with occasional rotation to duck, fish, venison, or turkey for broader nutrient exposure. Multi protein blends like Three Bird Roast or Salmon & Tripe provide excellent balance for dogs already comfortable with raw feeding.

By choosing proteins based on your dog’s goals—growth, energy, sensitivity management, or digestive support—you can create a personalised feeding routine that maximises the benefits of raw nutrition.
