GRAAFF-REINET NEWS - As the gap between pet and human food is growing smaller, discerning pet owners have begun to evaluate their dogs’ nutrition as closely as their own.
The high-end pet food retail landscape has entered the age of humanisation, with customers placing increasing significance on the quality of their dog’s food.
To meet their needs, Field + Forest™, produced by Graaff-Reinet based Montego Pet Nutrition, is a new elite range of grain free nutrition for dogs, is crafted in small-batch recipes and contain wholesome ingredients like butternut, oranges, chickpeas, cranberries, peas, carrots and apples.
The new formulation is comprised of 60% high-quality animal proteins and nutrient-rich meats, 40% fruit, vegetables, herbs, vitamins, and minerals for Optimum Biosuitability™.
It also contains no added grains or poultry by-products. Now, dog lovers can provide their pets with meals that replicate the natural ancestral diets they were born to eat.
“My father founded Montego Pet Nutrition, and since 2000 - when we began producing our primary commercial dog food - we’ve been consistently fine-tuning and improving our formulas,” says Montego MD, Johan Van Jaarsveld.
“Field + Forest™ is more to us than just another elite dog food. From concept, research and development, to the use of cutting-edge new equipment, we’ve spared no expense in making this product,” he adds.
The unique ingredients and holistic nutrition afforded by the Field + Forest™ range has even sparked the interest of South African food blogger, chef, and doggy lover Sarah Graham, who created five recipes inspired by the ingredients in this elite product range.
Brought together through a common love of pets and the belief that they deserve the same wholesome, delicious food their owners are used to, Sarah Graham and Field + Forest™ are a match made in heaven.
Known for her simple, yet healthy recipes, packed with delicious herbs for flavour, for Sarah to find the likes of oregano, mint, rosemary and zero grains in this range appealed to her own gluten free style of cooking.
During a time when so much of the food we eat contains harmful substances, we should be turning more to real foods in their natural state - unprocessed options that allow for all the nutrients, and none of the dangerous additives.
Most of us take great care in selecting tasty, healthy, and nutrient-packed food for ourselves and our families – so, don’t our four-legged friends deserve the same consideration?
With all ingredients steam-cooked in their own natural juices, and with no added water, Field + Forest™ has produced something special - a product fit for man’s best friend.
Suitable for all ages and breeds, the Field + Forest™ range is available in three primary flavours: Turkey + Duck, Game + Lamb, and Salmon + Tuna. This trio is available in-store in pack sizes of 12 kgs, 7 kgs and 2 kgs.
