ABOUT BORÉAL
Using primarily Canadian ingredient sources, Boréal dog foods will allow you to control the protein and carb sources you feed and help keep weight off and your dog’s energy levels where they belong. Most of our foods use a single source protein, and we lean heavily on peas and beans to keep our foods healthy. We have added an antioxidant and a prebiotic package to our blends to cover not only taste, but digestion and health concerns.
We are trying to reduce the wrong kind of carbohydrates and really focus in on low GI – glycemic index – starches. By basing our foods on low GI foods like peas, beans and single protein meat sources we think your pet will feel full longer after they eat and the diet will help keep blood sugar levels from fluctuating. Add in the right amount of exercise and we think this is a smart way to feed your pets.
We add ProPath®, an easily absorbed trace mineral package containing zinc, iron, copper and manganese to all our pet foods for important health benefits.
We have two lines of canned foods - a new Canadian-made lineup of of Cobb Chicken, Heritage Turkey, Canadian Duck, Atlantic Salmon, Angus Beef and NZ Lamb and a Red Meat Tuna line from Thailand.
Boréal Wet Food is Grain Free, Gum Free, and Potato Free - a limited ingredients diet that is high meat and low carb. Like our dry foods our new wet foods have ProPath® - Organic Zinc for Healthy Skin and Coat.
We know too many dogs and cats are carrying around too much weight. As with people, being overweight is unhealthy. Excess fat means hearts could be strained, joints taxed, and blood sugar levels elevated. Pet diabetes is on the rise. We believe the reason is many pets are eating foods that are heavily processed and full of ingredients chosen for low price and storage benefits rather than for proper nutrition.
