Welcome back to our Team Pet Series, where we take a look inside the bowls of the pets our team cares for every day. This time, we’re featuring Lola and the balanced routine that fuels her day from morning zoomies to evening snuggles.
Lola eats two meals per day, and her bowl is built with a thoughtful mix of high-quality kibble and supportive supplements that prioritize digestion, skin and coat health, and long-term wellness.
Lola’s routine is all about balance and variety. Instead of relying on a single food, her bowl combines two carefully chosen kibbles to provide different protein sources and nutritional benefits.
Her meals are designed to support:
Healthy digestion
Skin and coat condition
Heart health
Balanced energy throughout the day
By rotating proteins and adding digestive support, Lola’s bowl delivers complete nutrition without overcomplicating feeding time.
Lola’s meals begin with ½ cup of Fromm Pork & Applesauce Four-Star Dry Dog Food.
This recipe provides nutrient-dense protein along with a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. Pork is the first ingredient, making it a flavorful option that many dogs love.
Highly digestible protein
Pork is a nutrient-dense, easily digestible meat packed with vitamins that support immune function, energy metabolism, and cognitive health.
Organ nutrition
The recipe includes pork liver, a secreting organ that provides essential nutrients naturally found in a dog’s ancestral diet.
Digestive support
Added probiotics help maintain healthy gut bacteria, which supports intestinal health and immune system function.
Local ingredient sourcing
The apples and applesauce used in the recipe are sourced from a nearby Wisconsin farmer.
Another bonus: Fromm is a fifth-generation, family-owned company based in Wisconsin, and all of their foods are manufactured there.
Even better, this formula works well for dogs at every life stage, from puppy to senior.
The second half of Lola’s meal includes ½ cup of Open Farm Wild-Caught Salmon & Ancient Grains Dry Dog Food.
This protein-packed recipe adds another layer of nutrition, especially for skin, coat, and heart health.
Omega-3 rich protein
Wild-caught salmon is naturally high in omega-3 fatty acids, which support healthy skin, a shiny coat, brain function, and reduced inflammation.
Heart and bone support
Salmon provides vitamin D and nutrients that support bone strength, cardiovascular health, and overall wellness.
Free from common legumes
This recipe avoids peas, lentils, and chickpeas.
Includes functional superfoods
Quinoa — a nutrient-dense ancient grain with essential vitamins and minerals
Pumpkin — excellent for digestion and stool quality
Coconut oil — supports skin, coat, and immune health
Open Farm recipes are also 100% traceable, meaning every ingredient can be tracked back to its source.
Like the Fromm recipe, this formula works well for all life stages.
To round out the bowl, Lola gets one Open Farm Probiotic Supplement Chew per meal.
This chew supports healthy digestion and immune function by helping maintain balanced gut flora.
Supports gut health
Probiotics help maintain normal digestion and healthy bowel movements.
Preventative digestive care
Whether your dog has a sensitive stomach or you simply want to support long-term gut health, probiotics can be a helpful daily addition.
Easy to serve
These chews have a crumbly texture, which makes them easy to break apart and sprinkle throughout the food or use on enrichment mats.
Tastes like a treat
Many dogs see this supplement as a reward rather than part of their routine.
The recipe also includes functional ingredients like:
Sweet potato
Chicory root
Carrot
Each ingredient contributes to digestive and nutritional support.
“Lola’s bowl is built around variety and digestive support. Mixing proteins helps keep meals interesting, and adding a probiotic is an easy way to support gut health every day. It’s a simple routine that works really well for her.”
While many dogs do well on a single food, some benefit from protein rotation or mixed meals.
This approach can:
Provide a wider variety of nutrients
Support digestive resilience
Help prevent boredom with food
Offer targeted benefits like skin support or digestive balance
Of course, every dog is different, so any dietary changes should always be made gradually.
Our Team Pet Series continues each month as more team members share what fuels the pets they love at home.
From energetic puppies to wise seniors, picky eaters to enthusiastic foodies, every bowl tells a story.
Stay tuned for the next pet spotlight.
Many adult dogs do well with two meals per day, which helps maintain consistent energy levels and can support digestion.
Yes. Grain-inclusive recipes can provide complex carbohydrates, fiber, and essential nutrients that support digestion and energy levels.
Omega-3 fatty acids support skin health, coat condition, brain function, and inflammation management.
Many dogs benefit from probiotic supplements because they help support healthy digestion, immune function, and balanced gut bacteria.
Mixing compatible foods can work well for some dogs and may increase nutritional variety. Any diet changes should be introduced gradually to avoid digestive upset.
