Terra Canis Hypoallergen – Highest quality for dogs with allergies
Especially for dogs with allergies and intolerances, highest quality of raw materials is essential. The Terra Canis HYPOALLERGENIC menus consist of pure muscle meat (60%) from a single, exotic protein source. This meat is complemented by a low-allergen vegetable. Rapeseed oil provides high-quality fatty acids and is known to support the gastrointestinal tract and to have a positive effect on skin and coat. A balanced mix of vitamins and minerals ensures that the dog is supplied with all essential vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Terra Canis HYPOALLERGENIC is suitable for dogs with food allergies / intolerances and for the implementation of an exclusion diet.
Terra Canis HYPOALLERGENIC was able to prove in a scientific study* that there is no contamination of a foreign DNA. In the renowned magazine ‘Veterinary Dermatology’ a study* was released by international veterinarians. The variety Terra Canis hypoallergenic horse was examined. Terra Canis hypoallergenic was the only wet food which was untainted and without any contamination of one of the five tested foreign DNA. The results from this study show that 9 out of 12 products by renowned producers contained DNA of one or more of the five tested animal species which were not declared. The DNA of beef (8 products) and pork (6 products) was most frequently detected.

Why are these menus more expensive?
In addition to the exclusive use of muscle and heart meat and the 100% human-grade quality of all ingredients, the extremely high market price for ostrich, buffalo, camel and kangaroo meat makes this product somewhat more expensive.
This meat can cost 3-4 times as much as beef, turkey, or chicken meat. It must be imported as frozen goods from Australia and South Africa.
