Who decides what goes in the bowl? Not us.

Pawzi recipes are not written in-house. They are formulated by a qualified animal nutritionist at an independent South African companion-animal nutrition consultancy, and reviewed against published nutrient standards before anything is cooked.

Independent, not in-house

Our recipes are formulated by a consultancy that develops and registers commercial pet food for the wider industry, working to nutrient standards rather than a marketing brief.

Three standards, not one

Every recipe is formulated to Act 36 (South Africa), AAFCO (United States) and FEDIAF (Europe) nutrient standards.

A premix made for these recipes

Most small brands buy an off-the-shelf vitamin and mineral blend. Ours was formulated specifically for our recipes and is manufactured to that specification.

Checked in a laboratory

Protein, fat, fibre, ash, moisture, calcium and phosphorus, plus a microbiological panel, are verified by an accredited laboratory.
