We constantly mention our air-dried process – and rightfully so! It’s a process that we are very proud of and see the results of day in day out in the dogs and cats we own and love at ZiwiPeak.  But what do we do exactly? Why is our air-drying so special? And what makes air-drying so different to the kibble extrusion process ? Let’s explain…

Nutritional benefits of Air-Drying

The ingredients that go into a pet food are only half the story. What you put in isn’t necessarily what you get out. Between input and output, there’s a production process – this is a crucial part to preserving the nutritional value of the original ingredients and the final product that we feed to our pets.

Dog treats are a great way to reward your dog, keep them occupied and also to keep them healthy. So there truly is a treat for every occasion!

Deer Antler
Antlers are naturally shed by deer in the wild over a four month period every year. We source them from farms where the deer are reared on New Zealand grass-fed pastures. Antlers contain natural vitamins and minerals...

BROME LAKE DUCK:

Dog owners show their love by giving treats. While many of your every day dog treats are basically empty calories - and therefore should be kept to a minimum - there are some special types of treats that will give your dog a bit of supplemental nutrition. 
Enhancing dog foods and treats with “special” ingredients is certainly nothing new, but these days there are products available for many different desired results. These treats can be found in a variety of forms — including biscuits, freeze-dried, jerky, chews and more. All of these products are formulated to provide some additional benefit to the dog when given on a regular basis.
