Best Dog Food for Small Dog Breeds
Small dogs need more than just smaller portions—they need food that supports their fast metabolism, delicate digestion, and full-body health. Ollie crafts fresh, human-grade meals made with high-quality protein, essential nutrients, and none of the fillers or artificial additives that can weigh little pups down. With personalized meal plans for your small breed dog, we make mealtime simple, nourishing, and delicious.
Understanding the Needs of Small Dog Breeds
Small dogs may be tiny, but their nutritional needs are mighty. They burn calories quickly, often have sensitive stomachs, and require a diet that supports stable energy, healthy weight, and strong immune function. Feeding them properly from the start helps prevent common issues like low blood sugar, digestive discomfort, and weight fluctuations.
Why Small Breeds Need Special Nutrition:
Faster metabolism means they need more calories per pound
Smaller stomachs make nutrient density important
Prone to picky eating and food sensitivities
Risk of obesity if overfed or given low-quality food
Feeding your small dog the right food means focusing on high-protein, low-filler meals that pack energy into every bite.
Ollie fresh dog food is portioned precisely for your dog’s weight and needs, made with easy-to-digest ingredients that keep small pups healthy, satisfied, and full of life.

The best food for my dog!
Bear, French BulldogBear is the sweetest French Bulldog who has some pretty serious food intolerances/allergies. He was suffering from hair loss, skin lesions, bad odor, lethargy, and discharge from his ears from other foods we tried to feed him. Thank goodness your turkey recipe was just perfect for him. He absolutely loves it and he is looking and feeling amazing now!
Her health issues went away overnight
Momo, Shih TzuBefore Momo ate Ollie, she often times would get sick (diarrhea and vomiting) to the point of having to be rushed to the local emergency vet. We tried the prescription dog food the vet recommended, but Momo would not touch it. I tried Ollie on a whim after hearing good reviews from a few friends and it was like Momo’s health issues went away overnight.
Relieved her inflamed intestines
Josie, Yorkshire TerrierJosie was suffering from inflammation of her intestines with monthly loose stool which could be difficult to control. Since she's been enjoying Ollie fresh food, she has had no bouts of diarrhea and her digestive system is much more balanced. She loves the food and jumps for joy when it's feeding time.
Her breath and poop smells better!
Snickers, MaltipooOn Ollie, Snickers’ fur got fluffier and softer. She gained weight and has maintained that healthy weight and her poop is firm and consistent. It doesn’t even stink like it did before with her old food! Even her breath smells good and her teeth aren’t gunky! She is an Ollie baby for life!
