At Beta Dog Food®, we believe that dogs are more than just pets – they are members of the family. That’s why we are dedicated to providing the highest quality nutrition tailored to your dog’s unique needs.
Our History
Beta Dog Food® was founded in 1965 by a team of animal nutritionists and veterinarians. They recognized that there was a lack of science-based dog food on the market and set out to create diets optimized for health.
For over 50 years, we have remained committed to researching and advancing pet nutrition. We work closely with leading veterinary nutritionists, behaviorists, and universities to better understand your dog’s health and wellbeing. This allows us to formulate diets that are precisely balanced with the optimal nutrients dogs need to thrive.
Our Facility
We take pride in crafting all of our dog food in our state-of-the-art facility based in the United Kingdom. This gives us complete control over the ingredients we use and the preparation of every formula.
Our manufacturing facility has achieved the highest European Union Standards for pet food production and holds a BRC Global Standard for Food Safety certification. This ensures we meet the strictest criteria for quality and safety.
Our Nutrition Philosophy
At Beta Dog Food®, our nutrition philosophy is simple – we aim to mirror a dog’s natural, ancestral diet as closely as possible.
Dogs and wolves share over 99% of their DNA. Both evolved as carnivores, thriving on a diet predominantly filled with meat. That’s why every Beta Dog Food® formula contains premium animal proteins like chicken, turkey, salmon, or lamb as the first ingredient.
We complement these proteins with digestible carbohydrates, essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals – all in the ideal ratios to match what dogs would naturally eat in the wild. This results in diets that are highly digestible and deliver complete and balanced nutrition.
Tailored for Every Dog
No two dogs are alike. From tiny Chihuahuas to giant Great Danes, dogs come in all shapes and sizes. Their nutritional needs also vary based on age, activity level, and health conditions.
That’s why Beta Dog Food® offers a range of diets tailored to support dogs at every life stage and size:
- Puppy formulas provide the balanced nutrition growing pups need. We offer recipes optimized for small, large, and giant breed puppies that take into account their unique developmental needs.
- Adult diets deliver the energy and nourishment adult dogs in their prime require. We have options tailored for dogs of all activity levels.
- Senior recipes address changes to an aging dog’s dietary requirements. Formulated with glucosamine and antioxidants, they target mobility, weight management, digestion, and overall vitality.
- Breed-size specific diets cater nutrient levels based on a dog’s expected weight – from tiny breeds up to large and giant breeds.
- ** prescription diets** target particular health conditions under veterinary advice, like mobility issues, food sensitivities, and urinary care.
No matter your dog’s needs, we have a diet to provide the tailored nutrition they need to thrive.
Our Ingredients
At Beta Dog Food®, we take great care to select only high-quality ingredients backed by scientific research:
Premium Proteins
All our diets start with premium animal proteins like chicken, turkey, salmon, or lamb. These are natural sources of essential amino acids dogs need to build and maintain strong muscles.
We source our proteins from trusted suppliers who meet our stringent quality standards. Our sustainable fishing and ethical farming practices ensure humane treatment of animals.
Digestible Carbohydrates
Dogs utilize carbohydrates efficiently for energy. We select highly digestible carbs like rice, barley, and potato. Whole grains like oats provide natural fiber to support healthy digestion.
Essential Fatty Acids
Sources like sunflower oil and fish oil supply omega fatty acids to nourish skin and coat health. They also provide energy, support cognitive function, and reduce inflammation.
Vitamins & Minerals
Carefully balanced vitamin and mineral levels tailored to each recipe promote optimal organ, bone, and immune system health. Natural sources like spinach and blueberries offer antioxidants.
Natural Prebiotic Fiber
Chicory root supports digestive and immune health by providing prebiotic fiber that fuels the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.
