Be Natural Kibble
Instinct’s aim is to assist pets in living healthy lives with nutritious, high-protein diets from around the world that promote immune and digestive health, lean muscles, healthy coats and skin. Their foods use whole ingredients sourced locally as well as internationally for maximum performance.
All recipes use quality meats as the first ingredient and do not include fillers, grains, wheat, corn, soy or poultry by-product meal as fillers; nor artificial flavors, colors and preservatives. All products undergo cold-pressing to kill bacteria and ensure nutritional integrity.
Instinct’s raw food range features frozen meals, freeze-dried kibble and raw toppers designed for all life stages in dogs. Kibble and toppers should be fed as supplements to your existing diet; frozen meals contain taurine that occurs naturally in meat while these toppers include chelated minerals that are easier for dogs to absorb than traditional mineral supplements; there are even toppers with Functional Ingredients or Multivitamin supplements to meet special health conditions or needs.
