Dear Fellow Dog Lover,

Over the years one question we have received repeatedly from caring pet parents is, “why does Best Breed not have a grain free formula?” The simple answer has been that we have not felt comfortable with many of the non-grain ingredients used in grain-free pet food formulas. I have felt, and still feel, that healthy grains, when used as part of a complete and balanced formula, are much better for pets than grain free ingredients like potatoes.

After years of research and careful consideration, we have now developed grain free formulas with ingredients such as green peas, chick peas, ground flax seed and other fruits and vegetables, all of which are healthier and help promote sustainable energy.

Lastly, like all of our diets, the Grain Free Ocean Recipe is formulated without low-grade ingredients that are harder for your dog to digest and may be harmful to his health. Some of these ingredients include animal by-product meal, cheap fillers, any sort of gluten (e.g., corn gluten), and artificial preservatives, flavors, and colors.

Sincerely,
