Trust that we spare no effort in ensuring that only the most natural, hypoallergenic ingredients are used to make our kibble.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Never complacent: Quality Assurance <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The minute our choice ingredients arrive at our plant, they are tested immediately to ensure that they meet the standards and specifications set by New Zealand\u2019s stringent pet food manufacturing processes. This initial step gives us and our customers that peace of mind that cleanliness, high quality, and safety are on top of our priority list.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Start \u2018em small: Small Batching<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Our ingredients are then small-batched according to their formulations. By making the kibble in small batches, Addiction Pet Foods is able to check on its quality and consistency almost up to every 15 minutes per batch, to ensure that our kibble locks in as much nutrients as they can, giving your dog the most nutrition he can get from our kibble.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Making magic happen: Natural Supplementation <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Aside from all that protein goodness in our novel meats, the naturally occurring antioxidant combinations from the vegetables and fruits, we add in essential nutrients like natural vitamins and minerals into the batches, creating that high-grade dry pet food that your dog loves.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Packing the fun: Post-Magic <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>After the kibble has cooled, it\u2019s tested again for nutritional quality before it\u2019s packed, stored and eventually shipped out to our distributors and retailers, and make their way to homes and to your dog\u2019s bowls, where he can enjoy the healthy goodness that each bite has in store.<\/p>\n<p>Want to know more? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.addictionfoods.com\/en-nz\/blog\/whats-in-your-dogs-favorite-kibble\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Here\u2019s what else is in your dog\u2019s favorite kibble.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Trust <strong>Addiction Pet Foods<\/strong> when we say we\u2019re committed to ensuring your dog gets the best nutrition every time they eat our dry pet food.<\/p>\n<p>Treat your dogs to premium kibble with our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.addictionfoods.com\/global\/product-category\/dog-formulas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">wide range of variants<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/addictionpetfoodsapac\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/addictionpetfoods\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instagram<\/a> to get more updates about going further for your pets.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<div class=\"da-reactions-outer TpostID3708\">\r\n            \r\n            <div class=\"da-reactions-data da-reactions-container-async center\"\r\n                data-type=\"post\"\r\n                data-id=\"3708\"\r\n                data-nonce=\"8325f02eb0\"\r\n                id=\"da-reactions-slot-post-3708\">\r\n                <div class=\"da-reactions-exposed\">\r\n                    <img src=\"https:\/\/addictionpet.com\/en-nz\/wp-content\/plugins\/da-reactions\/assets\/dist\/loading.svg\" alt=\"Loading spinner\" width=\"64\" height=\"64\" style=\"width:64px; height:64px\" \/>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever wonder how your dog\u2019s favorite Addiction Pet Foods kibble is made?
