Canis Purus BEEF & DUCK
Natural cold-pressed dog food with Black Angus beef, duck and Green-Lipped Mussel

Canis Purus Beef & Duck is a complete, cold-pressed dog food made with carefully selected ingredients. The combination of Black Angus beef, duck, brown wholegrain rice, fresh green herbs, fish oil and Green-Lipped Mussel provides a tasty and balanced daily diet.

This variety stands out through the addition of Green-Lipped Mussel (Perna canaliculus) from New Zealand, a special ingredient that naturally contains various nutrients and is widely used in food and supplements to support the musculoskeletal system.

Our kibble is pressed at a low temperature. This gentle production method ensures that the ingredients are subjected to as little processing stress as possible.

What does cold-pressed mean?
At Canis Purus, quality starts with the raw ingredients. Upon arrival, our ingredients are carefully inspected, precisely blended and then pressed into kibble at an average temperature of approximately 37°C.

Unlike extruded kibble, no high temperatures are used during pressing to give the kibble its final shape. This creates a compact, cold-pressed kibble that breaks down relatively quickly in the stomach.

The shape and texture of our kibble are adapted to the dog’s natural chewing behaviour. Canis Purus also contains no artificial attractants, colours or flavours.

Because we do not use chemical preservatives, our food has a maximum shelf life of 8 months.

Why choose Canis Purus cold-pressed?
Canis Purus deliberately chooses cold pressing at low temperature. This makes our production method clearly different from the conventional production of extruded dog food.

The benefits of Canis Purus:

• Low production temperature of approximately 37°C

Green-Lipped Mussel – a special addition
Canis Purus Beef & Duck contains Green-Lipped Mussel (Perna canaliculus) from New Zealand. The Green-Lipped Mussel is a shellfish named after the characteristic green edge of its shell.

Green-Lipped Mussel naturally contains various nutrients, including the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. It also contains distinctive lipids and other naturally occurring nutrients.

Green-Lipped Mussel is widely used in foods and nutritional supplements to support the musculoskeletal system, joints and cartilage, making it an interesting addition to the daily diet of active, sporting and older dogs.

Other special ingredients:

• Fish oil: A natural source of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA and a valuable addition to the daily diet.
• Linseed: Naturally rich in nutrients and plant-based fatty acids.
• Algae: A natural source of various minerals and trace elements, including iodine.
• Milk thistle seeds: A traditionally used botanical ingredient that provides a natural addition to the diet.
• Fennel seeds: An aromatic seed traditionally used as a botanical ingredient in food.
• Blueberries: Naturally rich in plant compounds and antioxidants.
• Yucca schidigera: A botanical ingredient widely used in dog food that may help reduce unpleasant stool odour.

Feeding guide: The daily amount of Canis Purus depends on your dog’s age, body weight and activity level.

Adult dogs: As a general guideline, we recommend approximately 12 grams per kilogram of body weight per day.

Puppies and young dogs
Puppies have higher nutritional requirements during growth. As a guideline, we recommend approximately 25 grams per kilogram of body weight per day. As the puppy grows, this amount should gradually be reduced to approximately 12 grams per kilogram of body weight when the dog reaches adulthood.

The age at which a dog reaches adulthood varies according to breed and size. Small dogs generally reach their adult weight sooner than large and very large breeds.

Example for an adult dog:
10 kg → approx. 120 g per day
20 kg → approx. 240 g per day
30 kg → approx. 360 g per day
40 kg → approx. 480 g per day

The quantities indicated are guidelines. Actual nutritional requirements may vary depending on breed, age, activity level, body condition and metabolism.

Preferably divide the daily amount over several meals and always provide plenty of fresh drinking water.
