Biologically Appropriate Food for your Dog:Despite generations of domestication, biologically, our pets still have a carnivorous digestive system and their biological makeup is similar to what their ancestors had. Accordingly, pets need to be fed a diet that is rich in meat with varied meat sources for wholesome nutrition.

WholePrey Ratios:WholePrey Ratios of meat means that your dog’s diet is along the lines of what their counterparts would be eating in the wild. It’s not just muscle or fat, it includes organ meat, cartilage and bones. This ensures that your pet gets nutrients naturally from their food and the only supplement that is added, is zinc.
