A highly digestible menu made from 70% gently cooked chicken combined with light rice, fresh vegetables, and tasty fruit. Enhanced with valuable natural minerals and precious coconut oil. The combination of mango with coconut oil gives the menu a sweet tropical flavor that your dog will love.
For our Fresh Chicken Menu, we exclusively use fresh, food-grade ingredients in our in-house factory. High-quality chicken meat and offal are slowly and gently cooked at low temperatures. Only then do we add cooked rice, blanched zucchini, fresh mangoes, and fruity pears, along with coconut oil, rosehip, algae lime, brewer's yeast, and seaweed meal to the cooked food. This ensures that the taste and nutrients from the fresh ingredients are optimally preserved.
No high temperatures, no fillers, no artificial vitamin supplements, no extrusion, no sterilized cans. The result: Like homemade, healthy food with all the nutrients from the fresh original ingredients, which tastes as good as it looks. 100% natural and 0% artificial additives. Developed with veterinarians and made with love. Simply the best food for your dog. This is how an incomparable, healthy Fresh Menu is created for your dog. Just like homemade.

Freshly cooked chicken (70%, including 80% chicken meat and 20% chicken offal: heart, kidney, stomach, liver)
Chicken meat is considered particularly lean and offers many benefits for our furry friend: It provides high-quality proteins without having too many 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 that are processed more slowly by the body, making your pet feel full for longer. Additionally, rice contains many important B-vitamins, crucial for skin, nerves, and metabolism.
Zucchini (10%)
Zucchini have a particularly valuable content of calcium, magnesium, iron, B-vitamins, vitamin A, and vitamin C. They are very low in calories, making them a light but vitamin- and mineral-rich component of the vegetable cuisine.
Mango (4%)
Mango can be a healthy addition to a dog's diet as it is rich in important vitamins (including vitamins A, C, E, and K) and minerals like potassium and magnesium, as well as dietary fiber.
Pear (3%)
Pears contain numerous vitamins (such as vitamins A and C and various B-vitamins) and can prevent or slow down signs of aging in dogs. They also have a high concentration of dietary fiber, which 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 source of healthy medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which promote digestion, improve skin and coat health, provide antibacterial and antifungal properties, support joint health, and can help in more efficient nutrient absorption.
Rose Hip (0.4%)
Besides vitamin C, rose hips contain various other components that have a positive effect on health. These include fruit acids, essential oils, pectins, tannins, silica, antioxidants like lycopene and flavonoids, vitamins like provitamin A, vitamin B1 and B2, as well as vitamin E, and minerals like zinc, copper, sodium, phosphorus, iron, calcium, and magnesium.
Algae Calcium (0.4%)
Algae calcium is composed of deposits from red algae. It mainly contains calcium carbonate, along with magnesium carbonate and trace elements (boron, iodine, silicon), thus preventing a deficiency in minerals and trace elements. The high calcium content supports the stability of bones and teeth and balances the excess phosphorus from a meat-based diet, which could otherwise lead to kidney problems.
Brewer's Yeast (0.1%)
Brewer's yeast is rich in vitamins and minerals and is also a good source of protein. It stimulates metabolism and helps maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Seaweed Meal (0.1%)
Seaweed meal contains many minerals like zinc and carotenoids that support skin metabolism, fur pigmentation, and the health of nose and paw pads. The amino acid lysine optimizes nutrient utilization, while cellulose and mannitol support digestion.
What exactly is gently cooked food? Quite simply: Better food for your dog! Our cooked menus are all made from high-quality, fresh ingredients from food production: Pure muscle meat and healthy offal, fresh vegetables and fruits, selected oils and herbs, as well as a digestible healthy carbohydrate source (rice or sweet potato) together, in a carefully balanced ratio, form complete menus for a species-appropriate, varied, and digestible feeding of your dog.
We consistently avoid artificial additives, preservatives, flavor enhancers, and attractants. While the fresh meat and offal are gently cooked at 90°C, the vegetables and fruits are only blanched, preserving heat-sensitive natural minerals and vitamins.
Only in the final step are high-quality oils and natural ingredients like rosehip powder, seaweed meal, brewer's yeast, and algae calcium added to the menu.
Fidelis Fresh Menus are 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:
- Is almost always made from a significant proportion of cereals, animal meals, and hardened fats
- Fresh ingredients like meat, offal, and vegetables are used only to a very small extent or not at all
- The extrusion or cold pressing manufacturing process heats the product to very high temperatures, destroying almost all remaining nutrients and minerals
- The vitamins and minerals contained in the food are added to the food in artificial form
- Dry food often contains preservatives and attractants
Wet food / canned food:
- Most manufacturers use low-quality meat and slaughterhouse by-products, plant by-products, and artificial additives for can production
- Fresh ingredients like meat, offal, and vegetables are used only to a very small extent or not at all
- During the sterilization process of the cans in the so-called autoclaves, the food is heated to a temperature of 110 – 140°C, losing a large part of the nutrients and minerals present in the product
- The vitamins and minerals contained in the food are added to the food in artificial form
- Canned food often contains preservatives and attractants
B.A.R.F. (Raw Food)
- The fundamentally good approach to feed your dog with species-appropriate raw food consisting of meat, offal, as well as vegetables and fruits often encounters a major problem in practice: raw, untreated B.A.R.F. products are often contaminated with a high number of germs and bacteria. This not only frequently leads to intolerance or severe digestibility issues in the dog but also poses serious health risks for the owner, as they come into contact with the food during thawing and serving. Enterobacteria and E. coli bacteria can cause severe health problems in both dogs and humans.
- Likewise, the protein content in B.A.R.F. menus is often too high, which can lead to health problems in many dogs.
Feeding Recommendation
Puppy up to 8 months: approx. 4%
Dog up to 15 kg: approx. 2 - 3%
Dog over 15 kg: approx. 2 - 2.5%
The percentage refers to your dog's body weight. For example, a dog weighing 20 kg and a recommended daily ration of 2% needs 400g of food per day.
The following values are guideline amounts for the amount of food for normally active, unneutered healthy dogs. However, individual requirements can deviate up to 50% from the calculated values due to age, breed, or activity. These are just starting points for estimating the daily amount of food.
Transitioning to FIDELIS
Fidelis recommends an immediate transition to our food. Skip one meal (preferably in the evening) and start with our food at the next meal. Feed a single variety for the first 14 days so that your dog's stomach can get used to the food. After two weeks, we recommend feeding different flavors alternately.
Delivery & Storage
Our Fresh Menus are delivered to you frozen and are frozen for approximately 6 months.
Cooled in the refrigerator, our menus are easily stored for about 5-7 days.
We recommend using opened menus within 2-3 days.
