The benefits of Emu to Dogs

Coming in May! Say Hello to Emu!

A new protein your pup (and their skin!) will love

You might not have thought of feeding emu to your dog—but this Aussie native is more than just a novel protein. It’s lean, loaded with nutrients, and ideal for pups with sensitivities to common meats like chicken or beef.

Why Emu?

Emu is a novel protein, which means most dogs haven’t been exposed to it—making it perfect for itchy pups, sensitive tummies, or those needing a little variety.

And here’s something interesting…


Emu oil is a prized ingredient in high-end human skincare for its incredible skin-soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. While we don’t use the oil in our meals, it’s no surprise that feeding emu meat could support your pup’s skin and coat too—naturally.

Packed with Goodness:

  • High protein, low fat – keeps energy high and meals lean

  • Rich in iron – twice the amount found in beef

  • Loaded with vitamins A, B12, B6, C & D – supporting immunity, healthy skin, and strong bones

  • Naturally low in cholesterol – great for pups watching their weight or with sensitivities

Coming in Hot (or, Fresh!)

Launching this May, Pip Eats Emu is ideal for:

  • Dogs with meat allergies

  • Older pups needing easy-to-digest meals

  • Curious foodies who love variety in the bowl

Tested by Pip and our panel of taste testers, it's clean, nourishing, and 100% pup-approved.
