Belcando grain-free with new products

A growing percentage of dog owners are concerned about grain in dog food and possible intolerances. The German pet food manufacturer Bewital has added three new products to its successful Belcando grain-free line: Junior Grain-free uses well-tolerated and energy-rich amaranth instead of grain. Other selected raw materials like low-ash poultry meat meal and chia seeds, rich in omega-3 fatty acids and prebiotics, provide balanced proportions of energy and minerals. Junior Grain-free is intended for sensitive young dogs from four months of age. Adult Grain-free Ocean contains fish as single animal protein source. This variety is especially suitable for dogs that are sensitive to grain and protein of farm animals. The added krill is a particularly high-quality source of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants. The smaller croquettes of Finest Grain-Free Salmon with krill and salmon are especially well-liked by small, finicky dogs. Valuable salmon oil with omega-3 fatty acids also promotes healthy skin and fur. At Interzoo 2014 Bewital will also launch its new range of Belcando tabs – five varieties of tasty supplements. They specifically improve the supply of certain nutrients and vitamins to dogs with special problems or older dogs: Belcando Agil with freeze-dried green-lipped mussels supports the joint meta­bolism, Belcando Fiber is especially rich in fibre and recommended for overweight dogs, Belcando Derm with biotin promotes healthy skin and fur, Belcando Age contains nutrients known for their positive effect on age-related problems and Belcando Immun supports the dogs’ natural immune defence system. The new Belcando tabs and the new grain-free varieties will be available in selected speciality pet stores from July onwards. www.bewital-petfood.com hall 2, stand 402
