The ingredient “chicken” in a pet food is better than the ingredient “chicken meal.”
Answer: False
Meals are 11 times more protein-concentrated than meat. Foods that list "real chicken" or “chicken” first include the water weight in this ingredient.Chicken in this form consists of 70% water. Chicken meal is considered to be the single best source of protein in commercial pet food. It is an excellent source of Omega 6 fatty acids a natural coat and skin conditioner. This ingredient is very digestible very palatable and very expensive.Pure Woof and Pure Purr contain both chicken and pork meal.All of our meal comes from USDA approved plants and is hormone and antibiotic free.
All living creatures need a certain amount of fat in their diet.Therefore it is good to see the ingredient “animal fat” on a pet food label.
Answer: False
Animal fat is a byproduct of meat meal processing. The origin of the contributing animals is never known, and the resulting oil is very low in linoleic acid (an Omega fatty acid necessary to help keep a dog or cat’s coat in good condition).
Pure Woof and Pure Purr use chicken fat, the highest of all animal sources in linoleic an important element for skin and coat health.Our fat is pure and clear and originates in USDA plants processing chickens for our dinner table.

Like food for humans, pet food must meet FDA requirements.
Answer: False
There is no requirement that pet food products have FDA approval.As a result, almost anything can be used in pet food. “Animal by-products” for example are any part of an animal not acceptable for human consumption. Ingredients listed as by-products may refer to pieces of the animal including feathers, beaks, and chicken feet.“Meat and Bone Meal” is a convenient catch-all term for whatever offal and refuse happens to be rendered that day. This is the source of the worst stories about pet food. Many pet food manufacturers accept for processing items such as road kill, euthanized pets from shelters and veterinary clinics, cut-away cancerous tissue, out of date supermarket meats, restaurant waste and other unappetizing, unhealthy ingredients.Pure Woof and Pure Purr use only high quality meat meals and contain no animal by-products.
