MyHealthyPet was established in BC, Canada. Just as the name suggests, we are devoted to protecting the health of our pets. We have developed our pet food and supplements to meet their natural needs, so pet parents can enjoy every moment with their pets without worrying about their health.
AAFCO’s standards only guarantee the minimum standards required for pets to survive, and of course we want to do more than that. Compared with their more active ancestors, domestic pets get a much lower amount of daily exercise.We took this into consideration when designing our pet food diets which all have a low glycemic index to reduce the risk of obesity. Another consequence of pets being domesticated is that they did not evolve to have a strong gastroin-testinal digestion tolerance or anti-allergic capabilities.
In order to reduce their risk of gastrointestinal allergies and discomfort, we created diets with fewer starch sources. We also added high protein content to aid better digestion in general.
In addition to our strict access system for all pet food suppliers that involve raw
materials, all raw materials that are sent to our kitchens are thoroughly inspected under
strict and comprehensive standards that go beyond the industry requirements.
This ensures that every batch of raw materials undergoes a complete inspection, and
only once they have passed this inspection can they enter our kitchens.
The factory conducts safety inspections on all foods before they are allowed to leave, and we
also have indepen-dent third-party inspection agencies on-site to conduct independent
inspections.
We only allow pet food to leave the factory that has passed all of these tests.
We also require our distributors to conduct re-testing according to the standards of
country or region on arrival at their warehouses, which they must also pass before selling
them to the market.
We have established strict raw material procurements systems all around the world
for raw materials that come from Canada, New Zealand and Germany. We know exactly where these
raw materials come from and the standards they are grown by. Our raw material partners fish
everyday at two fishing grounds in the Atlantic Ocean.
The turkeys and sheep we use live on sparsely populated natural farms. Our fruits
and vegetables come from central and northern Canada where the climate is comfortable and the
air is pure.
We have multiple kitchen partners around the world to ensure we provide our pets
with the highest quality, safest and freshest pet food.
Our kitchen partners follow strict requirements that safeguard food safety and
pet health. We also require these partners to be close to the origin of raw materials,
preserving the freshness of these raw materials and the quality of the finished products.
Our recipes are not simply about stacking ingredients together. We know that the
pets in our homes and the environments they live in have changed dramatically, which includes
the reduction of daily exercise.
Pets from breeding houses also tend to have more fragile digestion systems, making
them more prone to allergies. Providing low GI foods and increasing the consumption of fruits
and vegetables help to combat these conditions.
Cats are solitary animals, and as such follow their biological instincts to take
water more from prey than in their homes, as opposed to dogs who are more sociable creatures
with more initiative to take water when provided.
Around the world, domestic cats, and particularly cats that cannot go outside and
hunt freely, are reportedly suffering more frequently from urinary system diseases. This makes
it increasingly necessary to consider the development of wet cat food products in order to
protect the health of cats who do not like to actively drink water.
