About Lespedeza

Lespedeza is a genus of leguminous forage plants occasionally used in pet products as a source of plant-based fiber and minor protein and micronutrients. It can contribute roughage and plant phytochemicals that may support gut motility in dogs (less relevant for obligate‑carnivore cats), but some species contain tannins or other compounds that can affect palatability and nutrient absorption, so lespedeza is uncommon in commercial formulas and should be evaluated for quality and safety—consult a veterinarian if a pet regularly consumes it.
