Proud Paws
Pet
Foods Offer . . .
Nutritionally
Complete and Balanced Products
All Proud Paws Pet Food
products are 100% nutritionally complete and balanced for the
appropriate AAFCO dog or cat food nutrient profiles. No additional
sources of protein, energy, vitamins, or minerals are needed in
the pet’s diet.
All Meat
Protein Sources
Dogs and cats efficiently use
meat-based protein sources to meet needs for maintenance, growth,
and reproduction.
High Quality
Ingredients
Strict selection of high-quality
ingredients and manufacturing quality control procedures ensures
products contain only high-quality ingredients beneficial to the
nutritional status of pets.
High and
Consistent Palatability
Nutritional adequacy combined
with great taste ensures pets will consume needed nutrients.
Low-Fiber/High-Energy Content
The result is less stool
volume, a great feature for pet food products.
Vitamin/Mineral Fortification
Proper mineral and
vitamin levels are essential for a vast array of body functions
and health. An improperly formulated pet food predisposes pets to
an inefficient, unhealthy life.
Locked-In
Product Formula
Ensures products are consistent from
one production run to the next. Nutrition and palatability would
otherwise be compromised.
Dry Product
Form
Providing a consistent, palatable, complete pet
food is more easily accomplished with dry pet foods versus canned
pet foods, which typically contain meat, meat-byproducts, cereal
products, and a high percentage of water. Canned pet foods may or
may not be fortified with needed vitamins and minerals.
Poultry
Products and Fish Meal
The use of poultry products in
Proud Paws Cat Foods guarantees a source of linoleic acid
(natural source of Omega 6 fatty acid), which is important in
meeting feline nutrient needs for healthy skin and coat. Poultry
and fish ingredients are crucial to meeting a cat’s taurine (amino
acid essential to cats) requirement.
Low-Ash
Content in Cat Food
Proud Paws Cat Foods are formulated
at ash levels below those known to impact the incidence of Feline
Urological Syndrome (FUS). |
