What Brussels Griffons need most from their food
The Brussels Griffon’s flat face and selective palate shape their nutritional needs:
Digestive Health
Brachycephalic anatomy affects digestion and can cause gas. Highly digestible food reduces digestive burden.
Picky Eating
Griffons can be finicky. Real-meat aroma appeals where bland kibble fails.
Nutrient Density
A small stomach needs complete nutrition in a small portion — exactly what freeze-dried raw provides.
Dental Health
Small breeds are prone to dental disease. A clean, sugar-free, additive-free diet avoids the starches and fillers that contribute to plaque.
Why freeze-dried raw is right for Brussels GriffonsBrussels Griffons
Brussels Griffons are small, characterful dogs with a brachycephalic (flat-faced) anatomy that affects digestion — they swallow more air and can be prone to gas. Highly digestible freeze-dried raw, with proteins in their natural structure and no fermentable filler starches, eases digestion and reduces gas.
The breed is also known for being selective about food. The real-meat aroma of rehydrated freeze-dried raw appeals to finicky Griffons where bland kibble is refused. And as a small breed, the nutrient density means a small portion delivers complete nutrition. Loyal Saints is clean, whole-food, and free of synthetic premix.

The standard is King.
Loyal Saints was built because of one dog. King’s digestive sensitivities pushed Kristina Voltin to question the ingredients, processing and nutrition behind every bowl. She formulated a whole-food, freeze-dried raw diet from human-grade quality ingredients — food she felt confident feeding King every day. Every formula is held to that standard: would I feed this to King?
For Brussels Griffons owners navigating the same questions Kristina faced — about ingredients, about what’s really in the bag, about whether the food is actually good — Loyal Saints is the answer she built for them.

For a small, flat-faced breed, digestibility and aroma matter most. Removing filler starches reduces gas, and the real-meat profile appeals to finicky Griffons.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my Brussels Griffon such a picky eater?
Griffons are known for being selective, and many find bland kibble unappealing. The real-meat aroma of rehydrated freeze-dried raw is far more enticing. Add slightly warm water before serving to amplify the aroma — most picky Griffons respond immediately.
How much should I feed my Brussels Griffon?
Brussels Griffons typically weigh 7–12 lbs and need about ¾–1¼ cups of freeze-dried raw a day as a complete meal (Beef or Turkey + Salmon; ¾–1⅓ cups of Chicken), split into two meals. Monitor body condition and adjust.
Does my Griffon’s flat face affect digestion?
Yes. Like other brachycephalic breeds, Griffons swallow more air, which can contribute to gas. Highly digestible food with no fermentable filler starches reduces the dietary contribution to gas. Feeding smaller, slower meals also helps.
Is freeze-dried raw good for small breeds like the Griffon?
Yes. The nutrient density means a small dog gets complete nutrition in a small portion, the high digestibility suits sensitive digestion, and the real-meat aroma appeals to selective eaters — all advantages for the breed.
