Horizon Pet Nutrition Makes a Bold Step in Developing a Revolutionary Grain Free Dog Food, with Introduction of Pulses, in Pulsar

Calgary, Canada (PRWEB) January 24, 2012

?We are very excited about this dietary formulation. With its inception, we asked ourselves:


1) How can we fundamentally raise the bar on the nutritional attributes of grain free diets (and)

2) How can we offer grain free food at a truly affordable price point?


The answer is Pulsar, a truly unique combination of leading edge grain free nutrition available at an unmatched consumer price point. From our point of view, it was not impossible to achieve quality and affordability and we have done so, with Pulsar.?


-Jeff English, Co-Founder of Horizon Pet Nutrition


Grain free nutrition was a new advent to commercially produced specialty pet foods about 7 years ago. When introduced, it embraced the core idea that grains were not historically a prominent component of dogs and cats ancestral diets.


By replacing traditional grains with other carbohydrate alternatives such as potato and tapioca, it was believed that this combination was a new balanced, highly digestible and protein enriched diet. Since then, consumers have truly embraced the grain free concept and as a consequence there has been very strong growth in grain free diets in the last 5 to 6 years.


?Why would you feed your dog a grain-free potato formulation and pay more for it? Pulses, in Pulsar, provide superior nutrition at a more affordable price.?


With Horizon Pet Nutrition?s newest formulation, Pulsar, they have gone further in continuing the evolution of grain free diets. They strongly believe the benefits of a low glycemic index can be enhanced beyond the current levels in conventional grain free pet foods. The approach Horizon has taken is to increase the use of pulses as a primary source of carbohydrates in our Pulsar formula. Pulses are the edible seeds of legume plants. Peas are a pulse and have been an innovation that Horizon has used for several years ? in fact, they were one of the very first.


Horizon has added red lentils as a new primary pulse in combination with peas. The addition of red lentils combined with peas packs a very powerful nutritional punch by reducing the glycemic index but enhancing both digestibility through superior dietary fiber and elevating antioxidant qualities to help fend off dangerous toxins. Quality animal protein remains the number one ingredient in Pulsar grain free dog food. Horizon Pet Nutrition now offers a chicken and salmon alternative for consumers to choose. The evolution of Pulsar is their mission to improve the health benefits available from grain free food ? with no compromise.


Food Description


Pulsar is a moderate level and single source animal protein grain free food available in both a chicken and fish protein formula. It represents the first concentrated focus on ?pulses? as a carbohydrate alternative as opposed to lower grade carbohydrates such potato and tapioca. It is a high-end grain free formula that offers an exceptionally compelling price point for consumers.
