The Importance of High-Quality Dog Food
The food you give your dog affects their muscle health, weight, energy level, and general well-being, so it is important to look for high-quality dog food.
But what is it that makes high-quality dog food?
The ingredients!
Cheaper dog foods are cheap for a reason – they use low quality, more affordable ingredients like grains and unnamed meat (meat meals) amongst other things.
In comparison, high-quality dog foods contain high-quality, natural ingredients like meat, whole grains, and vegetables. They also name a healthy source of protein as the first ingredient while low-quality dog foods will have animal by-products or grains as the first ingredient.
Our range of food
At Broadleaf, we are committed to using only the finest ingredients to make the most wholesome, nutritious and tasty food.
This is why we work with the finest producer to create recipes for our brand that we are proud to put our name on.
It is essential for us to know where all our great ingredients come from.
We are proud to say that our fresh meats are collected from farms and fisheries that our producer both knows and trusts.
The meats are collected in refrigerated wagons to ensure the freshness is maintained, before being tested to confirm they’re of the highest quality.
They are then sent to the kitchen to be gently cooked.
Why gently cooked?
We know that slow cooking meat at home ensures that you create the finest flavours and make the most digestible meals.
That’s why our trusted producer follows the same process for our dog food.
Taking the finest salmon, or most scrumptious duck, the meats are gently cooked to protect the proteins, enhance the flavour and keep in all the goodness.
This ensures your dog is always able to digest the food and get access to all its nutritional benefits.
Because of the way the meats are cooked, we are also able to take the tasty oils within the meats and use these as part of the ingredients on the outside of the final kibble, creating an irresistible tasting meal.
After cooking the meats, all the other tasty ingredients, including sweet potatoes and an array of superfoods, are then added.
With each of the superfoods providing its own unique benefits, it’s a recipe created from the heart to provide the most wholesome, enjoyable and nutritiously beneficial mealtime.
Environmentally friendly
We know that the welfare of the animals and gentle cooking is very important. Still, we also know that caring for the environment when we produce food is equally as important.
That’s why we have chosen a dog food producer that considers not just the local community but also the local ecology and, ultimately, our planet when they make our food.
They are working towards being completely carbon neutral and ensuring they recycle all their water on-site, as well as planting 20,000 trees in the last five years alone!
So, when you buy a bag of Broadleaf Grain-Free dog food, you can rest assured it’s of the highest quality for your dog and the planet.
