Dehydration, or drying, is an ancient and gentle method of food preservation. Food dehydration works by removing only the water. Almost all other nutrients remain–and become highly concentrated. Dehydrated foods are highly nutritious, easy to prepare and store, and light-weight to ship.
Venison - With nearly 85% meat and organs, Ziwi Peak Air Dried Dog Food is a complete breakthrough in the world of pet nutrition.Formulated to mimic the diet of a wild canid, Ziwi Peak's ingredients begin with ranched raised antibiotic free, hormone free and grass fed meat, liver, tripe, heart and kidney.That's the bulk of the food!Add in a little green lipped and blue mussel, fish oil, greens and vitamins and minerals and what you end up with is a food that extraordinarily healthy and digestible which results in a lower stool volume similar to that of a raw fed dog. It's raw without the thaw!
Ziwi Peak contains no grains, artificial colours, salt, sugar, chemicals, or artificial flavours. Formulated to meet the nutritional levels of AAFCO for all life stages, Ziwi Peak is an appropriate food for puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs and dogs in whelp.Highly palatable due to its natural ingredients, Ziwi Peak goes over well with even the pickiest of dogs.Use Ziwi Peak on its own as a daily diet, use it for emergency food ("Oops, I forgot to defrost dinner!"), use it for travel or use it to provide variety into any diet. Heck, you can even use it for training treats (which we do often!).
Feed ZiwiPeak 'Cuisine' to your pet on a daily basis using the portion guide below. It is important when changing your pet's diet to ZiwiPeak 'Cuisine' that you have a slow introduction across a five day period. It is equally as important that you do not over-feed your pet. Our portion guide has been tested and approved by animal nutrition specialists. For your pet's health and well-being they should always have access to fresh, clean water.

Seem like a very good dog food very healthy, but my dog had problems with the dryness of this food, I had to add water. Great food otherwise but expensive.

It is wonderful alternative to raw. My dog loved it! I just wish k9 was selling it in bigger packaging.
Born to Be Wild - Genetic research reveals inside every dog is a wolf. Over thousands of years, wolves evolved to thrive on meat from the wild -not supermarket. Supermarket meats lack key factors of wild meats. It's a myth to believe supermarket meat provides an evolutionary diet. You're fooling yourself and cheating your dog.
Born to Be Wild is the first formula designed to help turn supermarket meat into wild meat. In fact, BORN TO BE WILD helps kibble--or even the best raw foods--become more of a wild diet.

3. Holly on 9/9/2009, said:
I switched Abigail from Timberwolf Organics to Addiction foods. She has had no tummy problems at all during the transition. Since she is a big girl, the dehydrated formula is her "treat" mixed with her dry food in the evening.
4. Frances on 9/7/2009, said:
This is a real palate pleaser. Jeni licks her plate over and over. She loves the venison and fig food. I love how she loves it and how she is enjoying her food.
I plan on ordering more.....

My dog likes Addiction brand better than Honest Kitchen, and it smells better to me also. She, a Bernese Mountain Dog, licks up every crumb.

I mix this with Embark and Force so I don't really know how much the dogs like it by itself. I like the ingredients.

I try to be very well informed regarding dog food ingredients, i'm a pet groomer and boarding kennel owner and often discuss pet foods with clients.
This is the best product i've found for our 2 dachshunds and small poodle, no one has itchy skin anymore. Not even the Chinese Crested.
Very convenient to use, it smells wonderful.
