Specific foodHarrison introduces "German Shepherd" adult dog food under its own "Genesis" brand. It's an ultra-premium quality food, carefully created to exacting specifications. The new product features ingredients to address the specific needs of German Shepherds: skin and coat sensitivities (Omega 3 & 6 fatty acids, evening primrose oil), digestive issues (fermentable fibres), and joint and mobility support (glucosamine, chondroitin & green lipped mussel extract).
