Manufacturer's product description
|
|
" Designed by vet Joe Inglis at the Vet's Klinic veterinary practice in Swindon, Vet's Kitchen foods have been developed to deliver specific health benefits for your dog using natural active ingredients.
The Vet's Kitchen Story: "In my Vet's Klinic surgery I see the impact that diet can make on pets and with this in mind I developed the Vet's Kitchen range of foods to offer the best in nutritional care. I use my veterinary knowledge and experience to create the recipes and ensure that each product delivers real health benefits. Vet's Kitchen products are all made in the UK and it's important to me that the ingredients are sourced as ethically and sustainably as possible and of course they are only tested on very willing volunteers (such as my dog Jack!)" Joe Inglis BVSc MRCVS, Founder of Vet's Kitchen
Why Vet's Kitchen is Better Value: Our unique high-density formula is not only healthy for your dog it is also packed with natural ingredients and energy, meaning smaller meals will satisfy your dog - and help each bag last longer This means that, on average, feeding Vet's Kitchen costs around 1/3 as much as feeding wet foods in tins or pouches.
