A highly digestible menu of 70% gently cooked chicken combined with light rice, fresh vegetables and delicious fruit. Supplemented with valuable, natural minerals and valuable coconut oil. The combination of mango and coconut oil gives the menu a sweet tropical flavour that your dog will love.
We only use fresh, food-grade ingredients for our fresh chicken menu in our in-house pet food kitchen. High-quality chicken meat and offal are cooked slowly and gently at low temperatures. Only then do we add cooked rice, blanched courgettes, fresh mangoes and fruity pears, coconut oil, rosehip, algae lime, brewer's yeast and seaweed meal to the cooked food. This ensures that the flavour and nutrients from the fresh ingredients are optimally preserved.
No high temperatures, no fillers, no artificial vitamin supplements, no extrusion, no sterilised cans. The result: Like home-cooked, healthy food with all the nutrients from the fresh original ingredients that tastes just as good as it looks. 100% natural and 0% artificial additives. Developed with vets and made with love. Quite simply the best food for your dog. The result is an unrivalled, healthy fresh meal for your dog. Just like home-cooked.

Freshly Cooked Chicken (70%, of which 80% chicken meat and 20% chicken innards: heart, kidney, stomach, liver)
Chicken meat is considered to be particularly lean and offers many benefits for our furry friends: it provides high-quality protein without being too high in calories. It is rich in omega-6 fatty acids, supports skin health and ensures a shiny coat. It is an excellent source of essential amino acids and glucosamine, which promotes bone health.
Rice (10%)
Rice contains very little fat, but valuable complex carbohydrates, which are processed more slowly by the body and therefore keep you full for longer. Rice also contains many important B vitamins, which are important for the skin, nerves and metabolism.
Courgette (10%)
Courgettes have a particularly valuable content of calcium, magnesium, iron, B vitamins, vitamin A and vitamin C. They have very few calories and are therefore a light but vitamin and mineral-rich ingredient in vegetable cuisine.
Mango (4%)
Mango can be a healthy addition to a dog's diet as it is rich in important vitamins (contains vitamins such as A, C, E and K as well as minerals such as potassium and magnesium), minerals and fibre.
Pears (3%)
Pears contain numerous vitamins (vitamins A and C and various B vitamins) and can prevent or slow down signs of ageing in dogs. They also contain a high concentration of fibre. This is beneficial for the dog's heart health and can even prevent cancer.
Coconut Oil (2%)
Coconut oil is beneficial for dogs due to its rich sources of healthy medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which can aid digestion, improve skin and coat health, provide antibacterial and antifungal properties, support joint health and help absorb nutrients more efficiently.
Rosehip (0.4%)
In addition to vitamin C, rosehips also contain numerous other ingredients that have a positive effect on health. These include: Fruit acids, essential oils, pectins, tannins, silicic acid, the antioxidants lycopene and flavonoids, the vitamins provitamin A, vitamin B1 and B2 as well as vitamin E, the minerals zinc, copper, sodium, phosphorus, iron, calcium and magnesium.
Algae Lime (0,4%)
Algae lime consists of deposits of red algae. It contains mainly calcium carbonate, as well as magnesium carbonate and trace elements (boron, iodine, silicic acid) and thus prevents a deficiency of minerals and trace elements. The high calcium content supports the stability of bones and teeth and balances out the excess phosphorus from meat feeding, which can otherwise lead to kidney problems.
Brewer's Yeast (0.1%)
Brewer's yeast contains lots of vitamins and minerals and is also a good source of protein. It also stimulates the metabolism and helps to keep blood sugar levels constant.
Seaweed Powder (0.1%)
Seaweed meal contains many minerals such as zinc and carotenoids which support the skin metabolism and the pigmentation of the coat, nose and paw pads. The amino acid lysine it contains optimises feed conversion; cellulose and mannitol support digestion.
Is everything in there?
As a holistic vet, Anita Kröger attaches particular importance to a species-appropriate, natural and varied diet when it comes to dog health. From the perspective of holistic veterinary medicine, nutrition plays a key role in a dog's long and healthy life.

The Fidelis Difference: Gentle Processing, Superior Quality
The gentle steam pre-cooking of our meat allows for sterilization in jars at significantly lower temperatures and shorter dwell times. This keeps the meat in nice, chunky pieces, not overcooked mush.
Thanks to the pre-cooking, less water evaporates during sterilization, eliminating the need for artificial binders commonly used in canned food. These binders, often not listed on ingredients labels, can potentially trigger allergies and other health issues.
By using only fresh, high-quality ingredients without binding agents, our fresh food in jars boasts a fresh, delicious aroma, a world away from the typical unpleasant smell of canned food. Gentle preparation also preserves more nutrients from the original ingredients, minimising the need for artificial vitamins with a varied diet.
Glass: The Healthier Choice
Fidelis fresh food in jars offers additional advantages over canned food. Glass eliminates the risk of metal particles or coating residues contaminating the food. Residues from tin cans have been linked to cancer and other diseases. Glass simply doesn't leach any harmful substances. It's no wonder baby food is primarily available in glass jars.
The glass are also resealable and bad odours from opened cans in the fridge are a thing of the past. The result: fresh-smelling, healthy, wholesome menus for a species-appropriate, varied and digestible diet for your dog. Just as practical as tinned food, only much better.
Fidelis Fresh Menus are thus absolutely unique and simply put: "Better Food" for your dog! We cook for your dog just like you would at home.
Disadvantages of other types of food
What are the disadvantages of other types of dog food compared to the cooked fresh menus from Fidelis?
Extruded/Cold-Pressed Dry Food::
Almost always made with a significant amount of grains, animal meals, and hardened fats. Fresh ingredients like meat, offal, and vegetables are used in very small quantities or not at all. The extrusion or cold pressing process heats the product to very high temperatures, destroying most remaining nutrients and minerals.
- Vitamins and minerals are artificially added.
- Dry food often contains preservatives and attractants.
Wet Food/Canned Food::
Most manufacturers use low-quality meat and slaughter by-products, plant by-products, and artificial additives for can production. Fresh ingredients like meat, offal, and vegetables are used in very small quantities or not at all. The sterilization process in autoclaves during canning heats the food to a temperature of 110–140°C, resulting in the loss of a large portion of nutrients and minerals.
-Vitamins and minerals are artificially added.
-Canned food often contains preservatives and attractants.
B.A.R.F. (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food):
The concept of feeding dogs biologically appropriate raw food, including meat, offal, vegetables, and fruits, has merit. However, raw, untreated B.A.R.F. products can be a significant problem. They are often contaminated with a high number of germs and bacteria, which can lead to intolerance or digestive difficulties for the dog and pose serious health risks for the owner during thawing and preparation. Enterobacteria and E. coli bacteria can cause severe health problems in both dogs and humans. The protein content in B.A.R.F. menus is often too high, leading to health problems in many dogs.
Daily Feeding Guide
This guide provides a starting point for the amount of food to feed your dog daily.
Puppies up to 8 months: approximately 4.5% of body weight
Dogs up to 15 kg: approximately 2.5-3% of body weight
Dogs over 15 kg: approximately 2.5-3% of body weight
Example: A 20 kg dog with a recommended daily allowance of 2.5% would need 500g of food per day (20 kg * 2.5% = 500g).
Please Note:
These are guidelines for healthy, active, non-neutered dogs. Individual needs may vary by up to 50% based on age, breed, or activity level.
Adjust the amount of food based on your dog's individual needs to maintain a healthy weight.
Transitioning to Fidelis
Fidelis recommends switching your dog's food immediately. Skip one meal (preferably in the evening) and start with our food at the next meal. Feed a single flavour for the first 14 days to allow your dog's stomach to adjust. After two weeks, you can alternate between different flavours.
