Why Grain-Free?
A grain-free diet helps sensitive digestion
Although most dogs can digest grains without any problems, there are still some that struggle and are prone to digestive problems such as constipation. All our products are of highest quality and specially formulated using the right balance of key nutrients – just without the grains.
Choose high-quality ingredients
Dogs can suffer from food allergies. Although it’s relatively rare for dogs to become intolerant or allergic to grains, when this does happen it can be a difficult time for both pets and owners – that’s why we eliminate the chances all together.
Grain-based ingredients such as wheat, maize, and soya are frequently used as fillers in commercial dog food. While these fillers may create a sense of fullness, they often have low nutritional value and can be difficult to digest. Choose a high-quality, grain-free meal like ESSENTIALS, and you're likely to notice positive changes in your dog's overall well-being.
Behavioral Optimizing Foods (BOF)
What is Behavioral Optimizing Foods (BOF)?
A significant part of the idea behind the ESSENTIALS meals, is to keep your dog's blood sugar stable. In the same way that it applies to people, it applies to dogs (even more so) that when the blood sugar is running low or high, significant fluctuations both mentally and physically takes place.
All of our meals are composed in order to avoid these fluctuations; creating a new standard of foods - for your dog. The principle we have developed is BOF (Behavioural Optimizing Foods) and has been extremely well received.
