HDP stands for “Highly Digestible Protein”. The HDP proteins included in the recipes are broken down with a natural enzyme, to create perfectly sized peptides for optimum nutritional absorption. This increases the bio-availability of the proteins and nutrients included, ready to be easily absorbed and transported through the cardiovascular system, to where they are most needed in the body to thrive! Our Gourmet kibble range is the first of our recipes to employ this innovative cooking process, ensuring that your dog receives the maximum benefit from every bite.
