Fishlake Road Process & Foods Free From Common Allergens
Allergies are overreactions by immune systems. Studies have shown that the two most common food allergens in dogs are grain and chicken.
Fish Lake Road has designed all Complete Raw Meals so that they do not contain any grain, chicken, or chicken by-products. While they might be very cost-effective ingredients, healthy feeding, and immune response is more important to them.
A lot of animal allergies are based on a build-up of unneeded ingredients in a pet’s system. This build-up can encourage the wrong enzymes to be in a pet’s digestive tract and can cause poor stomach health.
