Our Grain Free Australian chicken provides a deliciously lean and highly digestible protein source packed with essential vitamins and nutrients to support strong muscles, healthy bones and vitality.

With no grains, this recipe uses tapioca and sweet potato as alternative sources of carbohydrate. Tapioca, a natural source of fibre, can support the passage of food through your dog's intestine and assist in the absorption of vital nutrients.

This highly palatable recipe contains glucosamine and chondroitin to assist joint mobility, all in a larger kibble size for dogs with bigger mouths.

This high protein diet may be suitable for dogs with dietary sensitivities, or for those who wish to exclude grains from their dog's diet.

Why Black Hawk Grain Free? We only use the highest quality Australian sourced meats, freshest vegetables, pulses and fruits, because nothing but the best is good enough for your best friends. All we add are flavoursome and beneficial herbs, vitamins and minerals, which ensure our food tastes great and provides complete nutrition for health and vitality.

Specifically formulated for large breeds. Eg. Bernese Mountain Dog, Rottweiler, German Shepherd or Bullmastiff.

Frequently asked questions

Can chronic skin problems and or infections be related to a food allergy?

Chronic skin problems can sometimes be caused by food allergies. Food allergies can be caused by proteins or grains, with beef and chicken being the most common of the protein allergies.

The only way to know for sure if your pet has a food allergy is to complete a prescribed food trial as directed by your veterinarian. If you feel your pet is just a bit sensitive, then they may do well on Black Hawk Original Dog Fish & Potato (try our Black Hawk Original Fish, for cats) or one of our Black Hawk Grain Free options.

For a personalised dietary recommendation for your pet, speak with your veterinarian.

How much should I feed my dog?

The amount of food your pet needs will vary depending on their age, weight, lifestyle and breed. Black Hawk pet foods come with a feeding guide which will offer a recommended serving size for your dog.

It’s important to take into account changes to your pet’s lifestyle when following the standard feeding guide – remember, these guides are general and your pet’s needs may vary. For instance, if you are walking your dog less during the winter months or your pet isn’t as active as it used to be it’s important to cut down its serving size to ensure your pet doesn’t gain too much weight.
