What kind of food is this?
Noodles made from wheat. Cooked, per 100g: 95kcal and 21.6g carbohydrate — on the lower-calorie side among grains.
Like white rice and pasta, its main job is adding energy from carbohydrate. Boiling makes it hold a lot of water, so per 100g its energy density is lower than dry wheat products.
How to serve
Use without mentsuyu (noodle dipping sauce) or condiments, and cut into short pieces. Green onions, a common condiment, cannot be given to dogs even when cooked. Most udon dough is made with salt, and some sodium remains after boiling. Salt-free products also exist, so check the ingredient list.

In food-energetics terms
In food energetics this is classified as "cool." It is considered gently cooling, so it is often chosen when the body is holding excess heat.
(Food energetics is a long-standing idea of supporting the body through everyday meals. Treat it as one extra hint alongside the nutrition numbers.)
