Benefits of grain free dog food

You want the most health-conscious food for yourself, so the same should go for your dog. In our previous post, we discussed the benefits of Hypro Premium Puppy & Whelping dog food over budget or supermarket brands of puppy and every-age dog food. But when choosing what your dog eats, why is it important to go grain free?

Grain by-products also used in filler can go by a few different names: gluten meal, brewer’s rice, and wheat-maize flour are just a few. Grain and grain by-product filler are not included to pass on any real health benefits to their canine consumers, but instead serve only to lower costs to the manufacturer by helping to cheaply fill up more bags of dog food.

Dogs were designed by nature to primarily get their protein from animal meat, not grains. There is also evidence that a grain-heavy diet in the first few years of a dog’s life can lead to the development of pet allergies.

The food you choose for your dog should always have animal protein as its first ingredient, not grain. That’s why all our Hypro Premium Dog Food ranges contain the optimal amount of animal protein, no grain filler, and no gluten. Budget and supermarket dog food brands also use cheap, low-quality meat by-products left over from production to provide protein in their formulas, like feet, beaks, undeveloped eggs, and intestines. Hypro Premium dog food only uses real high quality 100% Australian chicken, kangaroo, duck, turkey, lamb and fish to provide nutrient-rich animal proteins and essential amino acids for your dog. Carbohydrates are provided by nutrient-rich superfoods like peas, carrot, spinach, alfalfa, tomato, blueberry, cranberry and apple. These work to help support the development of a strong immune system. Combined, our grain free formulas guarantee the best quality of life and nutrition for all dog breeds, at all stages of life.
