Real Health Benefits
Enhanced Digestion
This slow-cook, low-heat method retains the integrity and bioavailability of nutrients from the raw ingredients while maintaining a high moisture content. As a result, it is highly digestible and gentle on stomachs, which also contributes to the production of better stools.
Improved Skin & Coat
The natural vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and antioxidants in gently cooked food helps support a healthy skin and coat.
Strong Teeth
The high moisture content helps keep mouth pH favourable and prevents excess food from sticking to teeth.
Immune Health
The natural enzymes and antioxidants in gently cooked food support a healthy immune system.
Preparation Steps
Make the Switch
Transitioning your dog from kibble or wet food to a new diet is a journey that requires patience and care. Over the course of 5 - 10 days, introduce foods from our gently-cooked menu gradually, allowing your dog's digestive system to adjust. Keep a close eye on them during this process, as every dog is unique and may require individual adjustment.
