Frequently asked questions
  • What does complete feed, straight feed, supplement feed mean?

    Complete feed: The feed is sufficient to cover the nutrient and energy requirements of the animal and is composed of several individual feeds. Dry and wet feeds are mostly complete feeds and facilitate the feeding of the four-legged friend in line with the species and requirements.

    Single feed: A single feed consists of only one ingredient and is NOT sufficient to feed the dog according to its needs.

    Supplementary feed: A supplementary feed (compound feed) consists of various individual feedstuffs. However, the formulation is not designed to meet requirements. It should only ever be fed as part of a feeding regime in combination with a complete feed.

  • How do I store pet food properly?

    Dry food should be stored in a cool and dry place. It is best to leave it in the original feed bag and close it tightly after each feed removal. Alternatively, the feed can also be transferred to an airtight sealable feed garbage can. The best protection is certainly obtained by storing the complete feed bag in a feed container.

    Wet food can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days without any problems. To do this, it is best to put the contents in a storage can or close the can itself with a can lid.

    Delicatessen Roll: Cut rolls should be stored in the refrigerator like wet food and consumed promptly. A closed single roll, on the other hand, will keep for several months, but will dry out somewhat over time. The nutrients are not affected by this.

    Important note: Food should always be fed at room temperature and never directly from the refrigerator.

  • What types of snacks does Perro offer?

    We carry small and soft reward snacks, as well as dog cookies and tube snacks, such as liver sausage.

    Each type of treat has different benefits and uses.

    Small and soft snacks are ideal for clicker training as well as for very small or even older dogs.

    Dog cookies come in diverse varieties, from small crunchy bones to hard dental care cookie bars.

    A crispy snack between meals makes every four-legged friend happy. For rescue dog work or even recall training, food tubes offer the ideal reward option, clean, practical and irresistible!

  • Do I need to soak the flakes beforehand?

    Yes, the flakes from PERRO must be mixed with warm water about 1:1 before consumption. Then allow to swell for 5-10 min and then mix into the food. Depending on the life stage and activity, the amount may vary.

    Junior: 20%* Flakes : 80% Premium Pure Tin
    Adult: 30%* Flakes : 70% Premium Pure Tin
    Senior: 40%* Flakes : 60% Premium Pure Tin

    *in the soaked state

    30 g dried flakes correspond to approx. 100 g in the soaked state - differences depending on the product. Info about this you can findYou in our online store.

Crisp and crunchy: PERRO dry food for dogs 

Dry food is very popular in dog feeding and there are good reasons for this. Because dry food offers certain advantages not only for the dog, but also for humans. 

Advantages of dry food: 

  • Easy dosage
  • Clean handling 
  • Long shelf life 
  • Quick and long-lasting feeling of satiety
  • Can reduce tartar build-up 
  • Increased chewing activity 

Complete dry food

It is important to make sure that the food is declared as a complete food . This ensures that the dog is supplied with all important nutrients . Whether PERRO Basic, Select or Grain Free -all dry food varieties at PERRO are complete feeds and thus cover the nutritional requirements of the declared target group (puppy, adult, senior,...) under normal living conditions. 

From puppy dry food to senior food 

No matter what stage of life your dog is in - the PERRO dry food range has something for everyone: from the clumsy puppy to the elderly senior. The harmoniously balanced nutrient content guarantees optimum nutrition for both puppy dry food and senior food. In addition, kibble size and consistency are adapted to the respective age group, bite size and strength. 

Dry food for dogs with allergies and intolerances 

It is a special challenge for dog owners to find the right food for their dog. Especially if the dog has allergies and intolerances, the search can be difficult. Which dry food is the right one for allergies and intolerances can only be determined with the help of an exclusion diet . However, due to the large selection of single protein dog food at PERRO, everyone is guaranteed to find what they are looking for. 

Single Protein Dry Food 

Behind the names single protein , mono-protein or single protein is quite simply the use of only one type of meat or protein source in dog food. Dogs usually do not tolerate a certain protein or even react allergic to it. Then it is important to avoid this protein source in the food. In this case PERRO offers an enormous choice with its Select and Grain Free lines : no matter whether it is horse, lamb or ostrich dry food - PERRO has many types of meat in its range which have a reduced allergy potential due to their rare use in the conventional feed industry. 

Grain-free dry food 

For dogs that are sensitive to certain types of grain or to grain in general, grain-free food should end up in the bowl. PERRO offers 16 different types of grain-free dry food with the Grain Free line and also with Select . From puppy food to senior food without grains - everyone will find what they are looking for! In addition, our grain-free varieties are also single-protein foods - i.e. dog food with only one selected type of meat. This makes feeding your pet much easier for many owners of very sensitive dogs. 

Gluten-free dry food 

Some dogs are allergic to gluten, i.e. the gluten protein in cereals. For us humans, this allergy is known as "celiac disease". However, not all grains contain gluten. Millet and rice, for example, are gluten-free grains and can be fed to dogs with gluten intolerance. If you want to be on the safe side, simply choose grain-free products, because grain-free always means gluten-free. Therefore, the products from the Grain Free line can be fed to dogs with gluten allergies.

Dog food with insect protein 

PERRO dry dog food with insect protein is hypoallergenic. This means that it has a very low allergy potential and is therefore suitable for dogs with intolerances and allergies. It is easy to explain why this is so: insects are usually a source of protein that the body has not come into contact with before. Therefore, most dogs are not allergic to insect protein.
