7 brilliant ways to serve pâté to your puppy
Our delicious PÂTÉ varieties for puppies are so versatile you can turn them into all kinds of meals and snacks. But best of all – they’re nutritious, grain-free and packed with fresh meat and berries. If you haven’t tried them yet, prepare to be amazed. And fair warning: before you know it, nothing else will do.
01 As a dreamy topping
Some pups may have trouble chewing dry food initially. Try mixing in THE BEGINNING PÂTÉ to soften the kibble and make meals even more enticing. How much, you ask? For a complete meal, try half pâté + half kibble, but just a spoonful of pâté at the bottom of the bowl works wonders, too.
02 Ideal for distracted puppies
Many puppies can’t concentrate on eating out of sheer excitement and curiosity about everything going on around them. THE BEGINNING PÂTÉ is perfect for making dry food even more appetising and to keep excited puppies concentrated at mealtimes.
03 Lick mat’s best mate
Our pâté is ideal for serving on a lick mat so your puppy can enjoy a long-lasting, soothing activity. This is not just a fun way of pampering your puppy, but also helps relieve stress and provide mental exercise, too.
04 Ice dream for warm weather
In summer, THE BEGINNING PÂTÉ is perfect for freezing in an ice cream cup as a tasty and refreshing treat for pampering puppies and keeping them hydrated when the temperature rises.
05 Pop on a lid
Buy 6 of our tasty pâté varieties and receive a free lid. Use it to reseal the tin after opening so you can store leftovers hygienically in the fridge. That way, the pâté keeps for 3-4 days so your puppy can enjoy the delicious flavour in more servings.
06 Multi-buy saver
We want you to benefit, so if you buy 6 of our delicious pâtés, you’ll be making a nice little saving.
07 From pup to adult
When making the transition from a puppy diet to an adult diet, there are lots of new pâté varieties to choose from, right from fish and venison to beef, lamb and wild boar.
How long can I serve my puppy wet food?
We call our wet food pâté, and you can serve it in every phase of life from puppyhood through adulthood. When making the transition from a puppy diet to an adult diet, there are lots of new pâté varieties to choose from, right from fish and venison to beef, lamb and wild boar.
How much wet food versus dry food should I be serving my puppy?
When serving pâté to supplement kibble, it’s important to adjust the amount to avoid overfeeding.
A good rule of thumb is for each rounded tablespoon of pâté (about 50 g) you should reduce the amount of kibble by 15 g.
Keep an eye on both their body weight and stool. If your puppy loses weight, you can go ahead and increase the amount of pâté, as long as their stools stay firm. If, however, you see that their stool is becoming loose, this may be a sign that your servings are too big.
Is ESSENTIALS pâté grain-free?
Yes! ESSENTIAL FOODS’ wet food is grain-free and contains no other fillers. Instead, our wet food is packed with fresh meat, fish and berries.
Are wet food and pâté the same?
Yes, wet food and pâté are the same. At ESSENTIAL FOODS, we call it pâté because our version is so appetising in terms of the recipe, aroma, flavour and consistency it deserves to be called pâté.
