Terra Canis HYPOALLERGENIC
Terra Canis Hypoallergen – Highest quality for dogs with allergies
Especially for dogs with allergies and intolerances, highest quality of raw materials is essential. The Terra Canis HYPOALLERGENIC menus consist of pure muscle meat (60%) from a single, exotic protein source. This meat is complemented by a low-allergen vegetable. Rapeseed oil provides high-quality fatty acids and is known to support the gastrointestinal tract and to have a positive effect on skin and coat. A balanced mix of vitamins and minerals ensures that the dog is supplied with all essential vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Terra Canis HYPOALLERGENIC is suitable for dogs with food allergies / intolerances and for the implementation of an exclusion diet.
Terra Canis HYPOALLERGENIC was able to prove in a scientific study* that there is no contamination of a foreign DNA. In the renowned magazine ‘Veterinary Dermatology’ a study* was released by international veterinarians. The variety Terra Canis hypoallergenic horse was examined. Terra Canis hypoallergenic was the only wet food which was untainted and without any contamination of one of the five tested foreign DNA. The results from this study show that 9 out of 12 products by renowned producers contained DNA of one or more of the five tested animal species which were not declared. The DNA of beef (8 products) and pork (6 products) was most frequently detected.

Buffalo meat can have a strong smell and taste that is not comparable to beef or chicken, for example. This smell is normal and is caused by a combination of factors, such as the diet, the age of the animal and the processing of the meat. Buffalo are herbivores and feed in the wild on plants they find, such as grasses, herbs and other plants – depending on the composition of the food supply, this can affect the taste of the meat and contribute to a strong smell. The age of the animal is also another important factor. The meat of slightly older animals tends to have a stronger smell than that of very young or younger animals.
Why are these menus more expensive?
In addition to the exclusive use of muscle and heart meat and the 100% human-grade quality of all ingredients, the extremely high market price for ostrich, buffalo, camel and kangaroo meat makes this product somewhat more expensive.This meat can cost 3-4 times as much as beef, turkey, or chicken meat. It must be imported as frozen goods from Australia and South Africa.

Our promise of quality
With their unique concept ‘Dog nutrition in 100% human-grade quality of all ingredients, Terra Canis set completely new quality standards in the pet food industry 16 years ago. Thanks to a special permit from the government of Upper Bavaria, pet food was able to be produced for the first time in a genuine human-grade quality company, the traditional Munich butcher’s shop Schäbitz. This was made possible by the fact that, right from the very start, only ingredients were used which, thanks to their freshness and highest quality, were officially approved for human food products at the time of processing. This uncompromising quality and the associated delicious, appetising smell set Terra Canis menus still today apart from all other products on the market.
Due to the constantly increasing demand, the butcher's shop in the heart of Munich has reached its capacity limits. As quality is of the highest priority for Terra Canis, the menus will now be produced in their own new facility just outside Munich. Manufacturing the products within “the own four walls” enables maximum control over the quality of all ingredients and production processes. In addition, both master butchers from Schäbitz butcher’s in Munich and their entire team have been brought over, bringing with them decades of experience and expertise in the butcher's trade. All the ingredients used, the production site and the hygiene concept are still subject to 100% human-grade standards. Terra Canis customers can therefore continue to rely on the human-grade quality of the ingredients in all products.
