Why did we choose to include grains in the ADORE formulas?

Grains can be a controversial subject! The market has swung from grain inclusive, to primarily grain free, now landing somewhere between with options on both sides. The push against grains stemmed from the belief that grains are not an appropriate food for dogs. Although unprocessed grains may be of little nutritional benefit, properly processed grains can be a great source of nutrients. The push back against grain free options stems from current concerns about taurine-deficient dilated cardiomyopathy. Although there is no definitive cause, some experts believe the is a correlation between grain free diets that are high in legumes (peas, chick peas, etc.) and emerging cases of cardiomyopathy.

Our goal at ADORE is to bring you the best nutritional options for your beloved furry family member. To do so we worked with some of the top nutrition and veterinary experts in North America to formulate and develop these products. We elected to work with beneficial, healthy grains that add nutrients to the diet, while still keeping meat proteins the number one ingredient. We strove to bring you a diet that combined the newest nutrition knowledge with a mindfulness for what owners are looking for in a diet.
