Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

Spring is here and our senses are once again focused on the wonders of the natural world – a perfect time for you to get your pet started on a wholesome, natural diet like those from Innova, Evo and California Natural. With an emphasis on fresh meat, whole grains and fresh vegetables and fruits, the dog and cat food from California Natural, Innova and Evo is the healthiest pet food in the world. Better yet, all are on sale at Green Acres Kennel Shop from now until the end of April and they all qualify for our new frequent buyer program for Natura Pet Food.

Natura Pet Products believes that good health depends on fresh whole food.  The company was founded when its future owners were disappointed in the poor quality of pet foods they found in the marketplace. They make three different brands of pet food:

  • Innova – Made from farm-fresh whole ingredients from all of the five food groups – meat, dairy, vegetable, fruit and grain.
  • Evo – the latest in dry pet foods, it comes closest to providing the nutrition and freshness found in a raw diet.
  • California Natural – a food with just a few, simple and pure ingredients, ideal for dogs with allergies or sensitive digestive systems.
