ABBA dog food

ABBA dog food is considered a premium nutrition and contains 70% real meat. The advantage of this line of food is its versatility. ABBA is suitable for both small Yorkies and large St. Bernards.

Manufacturer

The Netherlands and Germany are considered the countries of origin for this food. ABBA dog treats have been known in Europe for 82 years. Their introduction began with Jonker Petfood dry food. Since then, pet food experts have been refining formulas and modifying recipes, all under a strict control. The production team goes beyond standard veterinarian recommendations and conducts daily research, monitoring dogs' health and behavior after feeding them ABBA.

The food is made exclusively from high-quality ingredients. The line includes not only food, but also treats for training rewards and oral care products. The company employs veterinary nutritionists who understand the specific needs of each breed.

Feed composition

The average energy value of 100 g of ABBA food is approximately 365 kcal. All daily diets are perfectly balanced in protein, fat, and carbohydrates. The formula's key ingredients include:

• Dehydrated (dried) meat. Its content, as stated in the package insert, reaches 60-70%. This is a high figure; in cheap brands of dog food, it does not exceed 4-5%.
• Fish meal;
• Sources of carbohydrates: barley, rice, corn, peas;
• Sources of dietary fiber: dried apples, beet pulp.

According to veterinarians, one of the significant advantages of ABBA pet foods is the inclusion of hypoallergenic grain-free options in the line, which can be used for dogs with gluten intolerance.

Veterinarians and owners give positive reviews of ABBA dog food, which is not inferior to holistic products.

• Fiber is an essential component of ABBA products. It is essential for proper gastrointestinal function. Fiber-rich foods keep your pet feeling full for a long time.
• Omega-3. Helps maintain healthy bones and especially joints.
• Omega-6 for beautiful fur.
• L-carnitine for muscle mass and improved metabolism. This component prevents obesity, which is especially important for large, older dogs.

• Vitamins A (retinol), B4 (choline), D (calciferol), E (tocopherol), C (ascorbic acid) - participate in the metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, serve as antioxidants, and improve immunity;
• Minerals Potassium, Calcium, Iron, Iodine, Zinc, Phosphorus, Manganese, Copper are part of various types of tissue, provide acid-base balance in the body, and participate in metabolic processes.
• Chicory is a source of inulin, a prebiotic that stimulates the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract.

These are the common ingredients found in every ABBA food, but the nutritional content varies depending on the specific line. Most importantly, the high meat content allows ABBA to be considered premium, effectively placing it slightly ahead of its competitors.

Recommended daily allowances for dogs of different weights and ages, as well as the exact ingredients of each type of ABVA food, are available on the manufacturer's official website, avva-food.ru. The website also includes a list of specialty stores in Moscow where these foods are available.

Advantages

The main advantage is the high content of natural meat, which is a source of protein. Dogs consuming ABBA don't need additional vitamins, as all foods are enriched with essential microelements and minerals. Thanks to its wide range, these Dutch products are popular both as puppies and as adults: the less experimentation with nutrition, the better health your dog will enjoy. Along with the main foods, ABBA also offers treats and canned food.

Unfortunately, ABBA dog food isn't available in all cities, which is a significant drawback. Among the shortcomings, experts point out inaccurate information on the packaging, specifically the content and nature of the antioxidants, which remain unclear.

Reviews

Marina V.

"I feed lamb-based dry food. This is my dog's favorite meat. We have a cocker spaniel, so we buy food for all breeds. The kibble is large but easy to break apart, so it's easy to feed even to small dogs. What I like is the natural ingredients; you can even smell it. There are no strong odors. The cubes are oily. We feed dry food almost constantly, but there are no problems with fluid excretion, and the vet confirms that her kidneys are normal."

Anna K.

"My dog ​​is allergic; he won't eat anything other than natural food and a strict diet. We tentatively tried grain-free ABBA, but there was no reaction. Now he can vary his diet, especially since he eats the food with great gusto."

Boris and Inna Vinogradov, Moscow:

"I've been feeding my Spitz ABBA canned food for a while now. It's well-balanced, with lots of meat and no salt, which is contraindicated for my dog's breed. The price is also reasonable; it's significantly lower than other brands in this category. Sometimes I also treat Dezzy to tasty treats from the same manufacturer—bones, sticks, and strips. They clean his teeth and gums well and eliminate bad breath. Kibble hasn't caught on with us; they're too large and difficult for a small dog to chew, and crushing the kibble every time isn't an option either."

Victoria A.

"I feed them canned food and add it to their cereal. My Yorkie is fine, no issues or allergies. A friend fed her puppy canned food for babies. Her dog couldn't eat ABBA and developed stomach problems. The vet switched them to natural food and recommended introducing dry food in the future."
