The best food for Labradors

They add tons of fun to family life – and you want to keep it that way. But what’s the best food for fuelling your Labrador’s bouncy personality?
Most Labs will tuck in to most things in their bowl (or, let’s be honest, anything vaguely edible they find out and about!). Still, serving the right food is an important part of keeping them healthy. Here we’ll explain how we make it easy to get this right, with balanced Labrador dog food, made especially for your ever-loyal companion.
Keep weight under control
If even the faintest hint of food is enough to get your Labrador hurtling towards their bowl, you’re not alone. This boundless enthusiasm for food is in some Labs’ DNA – thanks to a gene that stops their hunger 'off switch' from working properly.
With a tails.com feeding plan created especially for your Labrador, you can serve food they’ll love, and keep your Lab at a healthy weight that’s just right for them. That’s because we balance the calories in your Labrador’s recipe against their individual activity, weight, body condition, life stage, and more. And we give you a free portion scoop, so it’s easy to serve the right amount every time.
Boost body condition
Your dog’s body condition score tells you if their weight is the right balance of muscle and fat – a great indicator of overall health. A tails.com blend is nutritionally balanced to help your Lab reach their ideal condition. Not sure how to tell what your dog’s body condition score is? Watch our Head Vet Sean’s video guide.
Keep joints supple
Healthy weight and body condition will also reduce pressure on joints, so there’s less chance of your Labrador developing problems like arthritis, which they can be prone to. If your Lab’s a puppy, we’ll include joint-friendly nutrients to support growing and developing bones and joints. If you’ve got an older dog, we create a feeding plan that focuses on ongoing joint support instead.
Support healthy growth
Puppyhood is an important time, so we support your Labrador puppy with carefully balanced, breed-specific levels of growth-supporting minerals – like calcium and phosphorus. We adjust the nutrient levels as your dog matures, to make sure they keep getting what they need through every stage of life.
Excellent reviews!
"We were recommended by a family member to use Tails.com for our Labrador who would constantly chew his feet as the vets believed he may have an allergy. Within a week of using his custom blend he’d stopped chewing and his energy levels increased. We never have to worry about running out as there is always a few days left when the new order arrives. Amounts/ Calorie intake are detailed clearly with a personalised measuring cup and customer service are so helpful and efficient. So glad we changed to Tails."
