THE BEGINNING SMALL BREED, 2,5KG x 4
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.
We say no to grain allergies
Pets 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.
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.
BOF – A sensation within pet foods
Behavioral Optimizing Foods (BOF) is the principle honoring the many advantages, of keeping the blood sugar levels stable throughout the day. At ESSENTIAL FOODS we have achieved just that with our life-changing and award winning foods. BOF ensures the stability of your dog’s sugar levels.
Our high fresh meat content and the low preparation temperature means your dog gets exceptional nutritional values vs. mass-branded pet foods. The results with BOF are breathtaking. Serving ESSENTIALS positively will affect the mental balance of your dog. Some report seeing a dramatic transformation in the behavior, others note a smaller change, however improvement is always recorded.
