Shimeji is a really cool little mushroom that grows in clusters and is easy to prepare as a topper for your dog’s food. Shimeji mushrooms are rich in polysaccharides and ergosterol steroids, B vitamins, biotin, copper, provitamin D2, niacin, phosphorus, potassium, riboflavin and zinc. They also have antimicrobial and anti-parasitic properties, and compounds that may inhibit the growth of certain cancer cells. Learn more about other medicinal mushrooms here.

Feed sautéed mushrooms in butter/ghee as part of your dog’s daily plant matter and healthy fats intake if you are raw/fresh food feeding. If you feed kibble and would like to boost your dog’s meal, you can add up to 10% of your dog’s calories intake with fresh food ingredients. Start slowly and monitor. Feed in rotation with other fresh food ingredients.
