What are insect protein snacks for dogs and where do they come from?

These snacks are made primarily with flour or concentrated protein from insects specifically bred for animal consumption , such as:

  • Black soldier fly ( Hermetia illucens )
  • Meal beetle larva ( Tenebrio molitor )
  • House cricket ( Acheta domesticus )

They are insects raised under strict sanitary controls and fed with plant waste, making them a clean and sustainable source of protein .

Nutritional benefits of insect protein snacks

  • High digestibility: Insect protein has a similar amino acid profile to chicken or fish, but is much easier to digest. Ideal for dogs with digestive sensitivities or food allergies .
  • Rich in essential nutrients: Provides essential amino acids, fatty acids (omega 3, 6 and 9) , vitamin B12, iron and zinc .
  • Hypoallergenic: As a new protein source, it does not usually cause allergic reactions.
  • Immune and joint support: Some snacks combine insect protein with functional ingredients such as turmeric, collagen or MSM to strengthen joints, skin and coat.
  • Low environmental impact: Raising insects requires 90% less water, land and emissions than traditional livestock farming.
