Super Premium Oven-Baked Pet foods
The Chicken Meal and Rice formula is oven-baked under carefully controlled conditions and temperatures, resulting in
better nutrition, palatability and digestibility for your pet. The ultimate in premium nutrition!
Oven-baking changes
hard to digest starches into easy to digest dextrins, which are readily absorbed into your pet's system. The secret to good
nutrition is not how many nutrients are present in a pet's food, but rather, how available they are and how efficiently they
can be utilized when digested. The good value is baked-in, not sprayed on.
Because the Kibble is high density, you
feed 20%-25% less than other foods. Each serving delivers maximum nutrition without Fillers so you'll also notice a lower
stool volume and less clean-up.
The Chicken Meal and Rice formula is made with rice and wheat. Ordinary dog foods
are made with corn. Rice and wheat are easier to digest than corn; therefore easier on your dog's system. Various selected
parts of the wheat berry are used along with whole wheat flour as it is one of the most nutritionally balanced grains. A combination
of grains provides better nutrition than one grain.
There's no sprayed-on additive or greasy coating to make the taste
acceptable. Ordinary dog foods are extruded under high pressure and extreme temperatures and then sprayed with fat and other
products in order to encourage dogs to eat.
When you buy dog food, you're looking for nutrition. Studies have shown
that dogs were required to eat 3 to 4 times as much of an economy brand than a premium food to provide proper nutrition. Flint
River Ranch dog food is cheaper to feed than other food costing less. There are 80 cups in a 20 lb. bag at a cost of 25 cents
per cup. Daily feeding of 2 to 2.5 cups is 50 to 63 cents. Compare to a daily cost of 70 to 90 cents in feeding 3.5 to 5 cups
of a food costing 18 to 20 cents per cup. So, while initial outlay may appear more costly, the reverse in obviously true within
a few weeks!
You will be able to see the difference
in your dog's healthy skin, coat, and energy level. Healthy nutrition can also mean less medical bills. Flint River Ranch
believes your pet deserves the best possible food!
ABOUT PRESERVATIVES
Food spoils without some form of temperature control or the
use of preservatives. Chemical preservatives are NOT acceptable at Flint River Ranch. We use, instead, only natural Vitamin
E in a fat-soluble compound known as Tocopherol, which works just fine as a preservative for up to twelve months ("peak" preservation
for up to six months). Vitamin E is also an anti-oxidant that retards the oxidation of other vitamins in our food. If necessary,
our food may be frozen to preserve freshness.
Most brands of dog food
include some by-products and chemical preservatives. The use of low quality products and chemical preservatives may be associated
with dry skin, allergic reactions, dental disease, poor health and degenerative organ disfunction. The average dog (44 lbs)
can consume 26 lbs of preservatives each year.
CHICKEN MEAL
The chicken we use is strictly human quality chicken flesh and
edible skin, the same as you would serve your family. Our Chicken Meal and other meat sources do not contain poultry by-products
or other by-products like chicken feet, chicken heads, duck heads, beaks, feathers, fish heads, hides, hoofs and intestines
as are commonly found in many so-called "quality" pet foods.. There is no corn, cottonseed, corn cobs, citrus pulp, breakfast
food by-products, soy beans, fillers, and no screening or other foreign materials such as noxious weeds, straw, hulls or chaff
in our product.
WHEAT BASE
Wheat is far easier to digest than corn or soybean. Utilizing
a combination of various grains, such as ground wheat, wheat flour, wheat germ meal and ground rice, is much healthier than
simply a single type of grain
