Annamaet Petfoods
•  We use human-grade chicken and whole
   grains as well as other natural ingredients.
•  The Catfish and Venison we use are
   human-grade, and farm raised, to help
   preserve our natural resources.
•  We use optimum levels of Vitamins and
   Minerals instead of minimum levels as
   required by the NRC.
•  Fortified with specially coated Vitamin C
   and extra Methionine.
•  Contains Proteinated (Chelated) Minerals
   and Flax.
•  No soy products, glutens, chemical
   preservatives, animal by-products, dyes,
   or artificial flavors.
•  Our Processing includes a preconditioning
   step which increases digestibility.

Why Whole Grains?
•  Many nutrients are stripped during the
   processing of whole grains into
   refined grains.
•  When a grain is refined, most of the bran
   and some of the germ is removed, resulting
   in losses of fiber, B vitamins, vitamin E,
   trace minerals, unsaturated fat, and about
   75 percent of the phytochemicals.
•  A diet containing high levels of refined
   grains can compromise the immune system
   and increase the chance of immune
   mediated diseases in dog such as allergies.
•  Compared to refined grains, most whole
   grains provide more protein, fiber and other
   nutrients, including calcium, magnesium,
   potassium, and many phytochemicals.

Why Catfish?
•  Many farm raised fish like salmon are raised
   in pens in the ocean, often exposed to ocean
   pollutants and heavy metals like mercury.
•  Farm raised catfish are raised in freshwater
   ponds with closed systems and filters,
   having little impact on the environment.
   These ponds are clay-based and filled with
   fresh water pumped from underground
   wells and filtered by alluvial aquifers.
•  The National Audubon Society and the
   Environmental Fund both recommend U.S.
   Farm-Raised Catfish as a safe
   environmental choice.
•  The catfish we use is human grade and is
   tested for pesticide, herbicide, and heavy
   metal residue.
•  Catfish is lower in fat and Histamine than
   many other fish.
•  The over-fishing taking place in our oceans,
   as well as its secondary effects such as
   diminishing the seal population are
   important to us.
•  Our concerns for the depletion of our ocean's
   natural resources as well as the
   contaminants these diminishing reserves
   of ocean fish are exposed to has made
   this an easy decision for us.

Menadione Concern?

Due to concern expressed by many of our loyal customers  concerning the safety of Menadione Dimethylpyrimidinol Bisulfate (MDB), source of vitamin K activity, Annamaet Petfoods removed it from all of our formulas beginning July 2009. Any product with a best used by date of July, 2010 or more recent will be MDB free.

You will not notice the removal of MDB from our ingredient panel right away, because if we upgrade our products, by law we can use up existing packaging.  We print bags in 60,000 production runs, because we are concerned about the environment we will use up all existing packaging and labels before you see the change on the bags.

My experience with Annamaet has taught me that something more than science is often necessary to obtain desired results. Art and craft still account for a substantial part in the creation of a superior dog food -- this is one of the places where Annamaet Dog food stands out.

I recommend Annamaet to my clients because I know that it contains top quality consistent ingredients which are combined in such a way as to prevent the loss of nutrient value in processing. ... It is a superior diet for animals recovering from debilitating conditions such as cancer, bloat, burns or automobile trauma. Annamaet's exceptional palatability makes it appealing to the most finicky pets.
~ Dr. Dawn Simmerman, DVM

I consider Annamaet Dog food to be a good part of my preventative medicine program. I recommend feeding it to all the puppies I see to promote good health and vigor. When presented cases showing skin and coat or digestive problems, switching to Annamaet often eliminates the need for further testing. I've never had a bad experience using Annamaet Dog food.
