What kind of food is this?
Laver seaweed, toasted and dried. With the water removed, the nutrients are concentrated: dietary fiber is 36g per 100g and vitamin A 2300µg—both the highest among the seafood in our tables.
Iodine is 2100µg per 100g. It offers fiber and minerals you won't get from meat or fish, but it is also high in iodine—something to discuss with your vet if your dog is under care for a thyroid condition.
Seasoned nori contains salt and flavorings. For dogs, use plain toasted nori with no seasoning.

In food-energetics terms
In food-energetics terms it is classified as "cold"—considered strongly cooling and often chosen in hot weather. For dogs prone to feeling cold, keeping amounts small is safer.
(Food energetics is a long-standing idea of supporting the body through everyday meals. Treat it as one extra hint alongside the nutrition numbers.)
