Shop Help FAQs

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

Of course, this depends on the respective availability. In addition, the transport distances are short which has a further positive effect on our climate balance.

Pro Joint 100 is pure green-lipped mussel powder. It has a high natural content of glucosamine glycans, which are needed by the body as building blocks of cartilage and for joint lubrication. It also has natural taurine, which is essential in cats and must be supplied with food.

Pro Joint 40 is a complex preparation in tablet form, which in addition to 40% green lipped mussel powder also has other ingredients for healthy joint development, such as wild salmon and evening primrose oil with a high omega 3 fatty acid content. The contained grape seed oil is a very good antioxidant. Pro Joint 40 should be used as a starter product for acute problems, then Pro Joint 20 powder can be fed on for maintenance.

Pro Joint 20 powder also consists of several components, including 20% green-lipped mussel as well as gelatin and DL-methionine. DL Methionine is an amino acid that is needed in the formation of body tissues such as muscle. The powder is suitable for permanent administration and can already be used in puppies and young dogs for optimal joint development.

Snacks and rewards should generally be given only in small amounts. They should make up a maximum of 5% of the daily feed quantity.

Especially in animals that tend to be overweight, the daily feeding amount should be reduced when snacks are given in order to prevent an increase.

In growing animals, sometimes a larger amount of rewards is needed for education and training. Since snacks are not a balanced diet, they should be reserved for absolute jackpot rewards. For everything else, a portion of the main diet should be used.

SPF stands for Super Premium Moist. Semi-moist or also called soft feeds differ from dry feeds by the higher content of residual moisture. This is in the PERRO SPF varieties at 17-18%. The advantage of these products is, among other things, that the croquettes do not swell up in the dog's stomach.

"Wet food and dry food should not be mixed." There are currently no scientific studies on this subject. This type of feeding must therefore be considered and decided on a very individual basis. However, we can serve with empirical values. Therefore, our tip: If both types of food are to be fed, simply divide it into 2 meals. For example, the dog can be offered dry food in the morning and wet food in the evening.

Soft dog food from PERRO combines the advantages of wet and dry food and is characterized by a high proportion of fresh meat. This gives the food a particularly high moisture content of approx. 18%, which ensures that the kibbles are incredibly tasty and juicy. This makes the acceptance even with picky dogs exceptionally high.

Yes, a small dent is normally no problem at all. If the content looks and smells as usual, you can feed them without hesitation.

Not only can you, you should! The cat, unlike the dog, should have access to food all day, as this corresponds to their natural diet.

Our advice: Fill the bowl in the morning with the appropriate daily amount of dry food. In addition, offer your cat a bowl of wet food in the morning and in the evening - just as much as is taken in by him at one time, since wet food spoils quickly and also attracts vermin. So your cat is optimally supplied!

At PERRO, we actually offer the possibility to actively choose a more environmentally friendly option. At the customer's request, we package PERRO products in line with our "zero waste strategy".

What is behind this? We process our used cartons into filling material and put this into the cartons instead of the bubble wrap. At the moment this is not enough for all orders. If you wish to transport the products in zero-waste packaging, please note this in the comments field when ordering. No new cartons will be purchased for this purpose, but used cartons will be recycled. Since the cardboard filling material is unfortunately not enough, we resort to bubble wrap as a second option.

We would like to briefly explain why we do this and what advantages this also offers

• Bubble wrap has a lot of volume due to the contained air at a comparatively very low material input (plastic).
• Goods are well protected by the bubble wrap.
  
• Breakage or damage are optimally prevented.
• Replacement of goods due to damage is minimized, which in turn leads to less transportation costs.
• The bubble wrap is not a composite material, but pure plastic. Therefore it is completely recyclable and reusable!

Depending on the product and supplier, the measuring methods differ. It is best to measure with a flexible measuring tape. The dimensions should always be measured close-fitting, without addition. For long-haired dogs with particularly dense fur, however, the fur must be included.

For the correct instructions for each product, please refer to the product page in our online store. Our customer service team with its many years of experience and product knowledge is also happy to provide advice. Here are the most important dimensions at a glance:

Neck circumference: is usually measured at the point where the dog usually wears its collar.
Chest circumference: at the widest or deepest part of the chest.
Back length: starting at the transition from neck to back to the base of the tail (on a standing dog).
Muzzle length: about 1-2cm under the eyes to the tip of the nose.
Muzzle circumference: at the widest point of the muzzle.
Paws: to choose the right booties you need the paw length, paw width and for some manufacturers the circumference. Width and length are easiest to determine by placing the dog on a white sheet of paper and with a loaded paw both front and back, as well as right and left directly on the paw put a mark on the paper. Length and width can then be easily measured with a ruler on the sheet of paper.
