WHAT’S IN YOUR BOWL?
Have you recently read the ingredient label of what you are currently feeding?  
If you are paying for a premium food,  shouldn't you be getting premium ingredients?  
We encourage you to compare your current food to the ingredients in any of our foods.
You may be frightened by what you see in your brand and pleasantly surprised to find
what are in our formulas.  We would like to reiterate that most of our formulas contain no corn, wheat or soy
and they do not contain any fillers, by-products, sugars, dyes or chemical preservatives

*Although it doesn’t sound as appetizing, chicken meal is a higher concentrated protein source than raw
chicken.  Chicken meal is the meat with the fat and moisture already removed. Since raw chicken can be
75-80% water, once the food is produced into a dry kibble,  chicken, which may be listed 1st by weight only,
is no longer truly the first ingredient.
