About EMMER
Emmer, also known as farro, is an ancient type of wheat (Triticum dicoccum) that is sometimes included in pet foods. It is primarily found in health food markets and specialized pet foods. Emmer is generally safe for cats and dogs when consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. It is not known to be toxic to either species. However, as with any new food, it’s important to introduce emmer slowly and monitor for any adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal upset. If you have any concerns, it’s always best to consult with a veterinarian.
