At ALT-PRO Advantage, we believe that what goes into your dog’s bowl directly impacts their health, wellbeing and longevity. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to source high quality and the most sustainable ingredients for our recipes. Here’s an inside look at how we carefully and consciously select each ingredient to create nutritious meals and treats that nourish your dog and protect the planet.
Choosing Alternative Proteins
The foundation of our recipes starts with alternative proteins, like black soldier fly larvae. These tiny powerhouses offer several advantages:
- High-quality protein: insects provide a well balanced amino acid profile comparable to chicken.
- Reduced environmental impact: insect farming requires significantly less land, water and feed compared to traditional livestock.
- Novel protein for sensitivities: many dogs with allergies to commonly used proteins can benefit from trying insect protein
Our insects are specifically farmed for pet food and are a clean protein source, producing antibacterial and antiviral properties which limit bacteria like Salmonella and E.coli, and can also benefit your dog's immune system.
Fruits, Vegetables, and Grains
We complement our alternative proteins with a variety of produce and grains grown in Canada and the USA. Our sweet potatoes, pumpkin, oats, brown rice, blueberries, and other fruits and veggies deliver fibre, antioxidants, and essential vitamins and minerals to support your dog’s immune system and digestion.
Superfoods
To boost your pets bowl, we incorporate nutrient-dense superfoods like marine microalgae, flaxseed and cranberries. These ingredients are rich in compounds that can help reduce inflammation or support joint and brain health as dogs age.
Rigorous Quality Control
Each batch of our food undergoes thorough testing to ensure it will deliver all of the nutrients your dog needs to thrive. Each bag includes a lot number to allow us to maintain strict quality standards and quickly address any potential issues.
By thoughtfully sourcing sustainable, wholesome ingredients, we create dog food that nourishes your dog's body while treading lightly on the planet. The result is happier, healthier pups and a brighter future for all.
