Our Quality Standards

We combine intensive market research with world-class industrial design and engineering to create innovative, safe, and nutritious dog food. Every batch goes through the following quality processes before it leaves our facility.

• 1
  Aflatoxin & Mycotoxin Testing — all grain-based ingredients are tested for mycotoxins and aflatoxins before use. Kenya's climate makes this a critical safety step, and we take it seriously on every batch.
• 2
  Mycotoxin Stabilisers — we add mycotoxin stabilisers directly into our formulas as an extra layer of protection, ensuring safety throughout the product's shelf life even in warm or humid storage conditions.
• 3
  Digestibility Enhancement — our formulas include scientifically selected digestibility enhancers that ensure your dog absorbs the nutrients they need, rather than passing them through.
• 4
  Nutritional Formulation Review — our recipes are developed and regularly reviewed using current nutritional science to meet the dietary requirements of dogs at every life stage — puppies, adults, and senior dogs.
• 5
  GMO-Free Puppy Range — Top Dog Puppy (Rice & Chicken and Rice & Fish) are produced using non-GMO ingredients, giving parents of young dogs greater peace of mind.
• 6
  Packaging Integrity — our food is packed in properly designed heavy-duty bags that are heat-sealed to be airtight and leak-proof, protecting the product from spillage, contamination, and damage during handling, transportation, and storage.
