Main benefits

• Grain-, soya- and wheat-free - In the case of a food allergy, it is advisable to choose a food that does not contain cereals, wheat or soya.
• Single source of animal protein - Using a single source of animal protein makes the food's composition simpler and clearer. This eases the digestive process and minimises intestinal problems.
• High proportion of animal protein - Dogs and cats are carnivores, so it is important that they have a high proportion of animal protein. Animal proteins contain all the essential amino acids needed to build and repair muscle mass and bone, and to produce the necessary hormones and enzymes.
• Free-range ingredients - Free-range ingredients are a high-quality source of protein. Free-range farming can reduce the risk of substances given to animals in industrial farming being passed on to consumers. Free-range farming has a smaller environmental impact than industrial farming, which is important for protecting the environment.
• Simple composition - The food contains only the most important ingredients and no unnecessary additives. Such foods reduce the burden on the digestive system and minimise the likelihood of an allergic reaction.

 Meat - a source of animal protein:

Lamb - Lamb is very rich in animal protein, which is needed to build and repair muscle mass and bone, and to produce the necessary hormones and enzymes. Lamb usually has a lower fat content than other meats, making it a great choice for animals that are overweight or prone to it. It is easily digestible and less prone to causing digestive problems. Lamb is rich in iron and B vitamins. Lamb is a less common source of food allergies, making it a suitable choice for animals allergic to other types of meat.

 Carbohydrates - a source of energy:

Potatoes - Potatoes are a carbohydrate, a source of energy that is important for supplying the dog with energy. They contain vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, vitamin B6, potassium and magnesium, which are important for health. If an animal has any sensitivity to gluten, potatoes can be a suitable alternative to cereals containing gluten. Potatoes have a low fat content and are relatively low in calories, which can make them a suitable diet for dogs that need to limit their calorie intake.

 Selected ingredients
