Why should I feed my dog/cat healthy pet food

We are Burns Pet Food Suppliers in Cardiff South Wales

Diet can play a vital part in keeping a dog as healthy as possible. A natural diet containing no artificial ingredients or chemical preservatives is the best type of diet to ensure optimum health.A high quality diet must provide a dog with all the vitamins, minerals and nutrition it needs for its daily requirements but must not exceed this requirement.

Unsuitable diets can cause a build-up of waste toxins which accumulate in the body and build-up over a period of time, eventually beginning to interfere with the proper function of the body's system. As the body tries to maintain a balance the toxins are eliminated in many forms.

Burns Real Food is based on the home-made diet which veterinary surgeon, John Burns, used to recommend. There are no secret or magic ingredients;
there are no added pharmacologically active supplements or ingredients. As the name implies, Burns Real Food is just that; a simple food which is intended to allow the body to function as it should. Burns is not intended to intervene in order to alter the normal metabolism of the body. The aim is to stand back and let the body get on with what it does best; to maintain and repair itself and to prevent deterioration of the organ systems. There are many, many different chemical and physical reactions taking place in the body at all times. Although we can influence one or two of these, by drugs for example, most of these reactions are being carried out by the body itself which is always working to be at its best - to absorb the nutrients it needs, to build and rebuild itself, to resist infection, to eliminate waste products and so on.
