“Try new things with your pets regularly, and switch things up often.” - Kieran Atkinson-Hardy
Ready-made health food items make a healthy diet a piece of cake for pet parents (no pun intended!). Pick up these selections in-store to scoop and serve or pour over your pet’s bowl: Bone Broth – Supports digestion, joint health, and the immune system as well as adding moisture to the diet. Goat Milk – A digestive aid loaded with natural vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. Some formulas include additional beneficial ingredients such as turmeric – a natural anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and detoxifier. It’s also great for adding moisture to the diet. Green Tripe – Rich in nutrients, this superfood is high in Omega 3s for skin and coat, as well as fibre and Vitamin B. Freeze-Dried & Wet Food Toppers – Toppers are both convenient, and boost your pet’s bowl. They come in a variety of flavours and styles, are great for picky eaters, and are often minimally processed making them rich in natural vitamins and minerals. Puréed Pumpkin – Adds dietary fibre and helps settle upset stomachs. Pumpkin is available in cans and single-serve pouches.
To help train pet parents to build better, more varied meals for their pets, Global Pet Foods offers consultations that help them determine the pet’s individual needs, then provide recommendations based on those needs. With a varied selection of products that are both natural and convenient, it’s easy to give your pets’ health a boost. Still worried? Fret not. The helpful team has some helpful advice for those wary of their pets’ current diets. “Try new things with your pets regularly, and switch things up often,” suggests Atkinson-Hardy. Try rotating proteins or flavours within your pet’s food brand. Many kibble diets come in a variety of formulas like chicken and beef – or more unique flavours such as bison, quail, and kangaroo. Another simple trick? Add fresh, natural food items into your pet’s bowl several times each week.
loving hands - which means your pets are, too.
“We love talking to people about their pets,” says Atkinson-Hardy. “When we say we work at Global Pet Foods, most people are jealous because they think we play with puppies all day – and that’s a part of it, but being a pet parent means getting to know what works and what doesn’t to keep our pets happy and healthy, and we enjoy having the opportunity to share those experiences with others. We also know that every time we speak with a customer, we’ll learn something from them in return – and that in itself is very rewarding.”
