Key benefits
Astragalus extract to improve proteinuria
May help to reduce proteinuria in patients with chronic kidney disease. It can also enhance antioxidant status and is renoprotective in other species.
Psyllium husk (prebiotic) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentate (postbiotic)
Supports a healthy and diverse intestinal microbiota. Prebiotics may help to also reduce the production of uraemic toxins.
DHA (an omega-3 fatty acid) from marine algae
May help reduce kidney fibrosis. DHA in particular may have renoprotective effects.
Antioxidants from Australian mixed berries
Rich in antioxidants like fisetin and pterostilbene to support renal function and reduce the risk of kidney failure developing.
How to use CompleteMe Renal Canine
CompleteMe® Renal Canine contains essential nutrients, omega-3 fatty acids, and fibre to create a balanced, low phosphorus renal diet at home.
It can be added to a range of raw or cooked meats, vegetables, and other ingredients to produce meals suitable for either:
- Early kidney disease (IRIS stage 1-2)
- Advanced kidney disease (IRIS stage 2-4)
Please discuss with your veterinarian whether feeding raw meat is suitable for your dog and household.
We provide flexible feeding guides for dogs with both early and advanced kidney disease (see below for links):
- Choose the meat, vegetables and other ingredients you want to use
- Makes food that is moderate to low in protein, with restricted phosphorus, and added omega-3 and antioxidants
- Low fat and novel protein options are available

CompleteMe Renal Canine contains moderate calcium in order to produce a balanced calcium to phosphorus ratio.
Excessive sodium intake has been shown to worsen proteinuria in other species. The provided recipes all have controlled sodium which meets but does not exceed the FEDIAF minimum for adult dogs.
EPA + DHA and Astragalus extract
Every 20 grams dose of CompleteMe Renal Canine contains a minimum of 680 mg of EPA + DHA to support renal function and reduce inflammation.

CompleteMe Renal Canine FAQs
Can I use this product with raw meat?
Yes, CompleteMe Renal Canine can be used with raw or cooked meat, like chicken breast or thigh, kangaroo, turkey, or pork. We recommend using human-grade meat, and freezing any meat to be fed raw for a minimum of 10 days. For areas with Trichinella, please freeze pork for 3 weeks before use. Please discuss raw feeding with your vet; it may not be suitable for all dogs or households.
Can I add this product to a commercial diet?
CompleteMe Renal Canine should not be added to any commercial diet, or used with other vitamin and mineral supplements. This could cause harmful excesses of some nutrients.
What is the shelf-life of this product?
For our CompleteMe Renal Canine supplement, the best-by date will be a maximum of 11-12 months. There are several, important reasons for this. As our products contain freeze-dried foods, we want to ensure these foods are fresh and that the fatty acids don't oxidise. Some polyunsaturated fatty acids are at high risk of oxidation, meaning ingredients like marine algae or green-lipped mussel can become rancid.
We also understand that some vitamins degrade over time, during storage. This means we need to ensure that the product contains a safe and appropriate amount of these nutrients from the date of manufacture until the best-by date. These nutrients should not be too high initially, or too low following storage. 12 months is the maximum time we can therefore ensure optimal freshness, nutritiousness, and safety.
