Crafted from ethically-sourced raw chicken from New Zealand's green pastures with a blend of orchard fruits and chicory root to support digestive health. Delicately micro-steamed then gently air-dried via our innovative two-step Z-MicroSteamâ„¢ technology to ensure optimum nourishment and palatability.
Key Features:
Orchard fruits are a rich in fibre to support healthy digestion. We include apples, pears, blueberries, kiwifruit and persimmons which are packed with vitamins and minerals as well being a good source of fibre.
Including fibre in your dog's daily bowl will help to regulate the bowel, improve consistency and prevent constipation and loose stools. Fibre may support with improved absorption of nutrients and can regulate blood sugar.
Chicory root is a source of inulin, a natural prebiotic that can help support the growth of good bacteria in the gut. When the digestive tract is full of good bacteria, nutrients are readily absorbed and distributed throughout the body.
Glucosamine is a combination of ‘glucose’, a sugar, and ‘glutamine’, an amino acid. It helps form and repair cartilage. Together, they’re ideal for building healthy joints and resisting joint tissue breakdown - particularly crucial for our senior pets and puppies. Beef, lamb, poultry, and bones are a good source of these nutrients.
Omega-3 fatty acids are found throughout the body, especially the brain and eyes. These nutrients are crucial for supporting healthy brain function, growth, and development, particularly for puppies. They also play an important role in helping your dog's blood vessels, heart, immune system, and lungs work properly. Omega-3 fatty acids also support healthy skin and coat.
Calcium builds and maintains strong bones. But it’s also needed for the heart, muscles, and nerves to function properly. In the wild, cats and dogs would eat bones along with meat to get the calcium they need. We think they have the right idea, so ZIWI Peak recipes include ground bone to reflect what your pet would eat in the wild.
Phosphorus is essential in the formation of bones and teeth, so essential for our young pups and kittens. It is needed to make protein so the body can grow, repair, and maintain its cells. Phosphorus also helps the body make ATP, a molecule the body uses to store energy. Phosphorus is found in bony raw materials, which is why ZIWI Peak recipes include ground bone.
