Why we recommend The
Rockster Food

"Rockster was an emaciated street dog from the steps of La Conca del Sogno, south of Naples. He lived at least 21 years and had puppies at 18 on THIS food. He passed of an accident in great health.

 

The Rockster never wanted to eat commercial pet foods, choosing to eat leftovers instead. An expert explained that as a genuine street dog, he was genetically wired to avoid anything that could be harmful. 'You’ll never see a genuine street dog eating chocolate'.

​

Zoe created a superfood with a team of expert nutritionists using some of Zoe’s late Godfather’s theories on immunological responses to dysbiosis in the gut (Sir John Vane, Nobel Laureate for Medicine 1982). 

 

Rockster is the only bio-organic dog food in the world that is certified as a superfood in its own right. Rockster products use only muscle and vital inner organs of animals raised under strict organic criteria without use of antibiotics or added growth hormones and fed biologically appropriate food without exposure to chemicals or pesticides. Animals have been raised humanely and are certified to have only been fed biologically approved feed or grass. Meaningful levels of a wide variety of bio-organic superfoods, are added in specific combinations to support the health of dogs. Each recipe includes natural prebiotics which support nutrient absorption in the digestive tract as well nurturing the gut microbiome.

 

Unlike other commercial pet foods, Rockster Superfood is gently poached from raw in the can at low temperatures, mirroring sous-vide cooking methods. Cooking from raw in the can at lower temperatures without exposure to oxygen. This means that the food does not contain any added preservatives.  Each recipe has been meticulously formulated with up to 87% meat content and specific combinations of nutrients coming from plant based sources resulting in optimum Omega fatty acid ratios and very high levels of antioxidants.

​

The raw ingredients are cooked only once, without any exposure to oxygen. Rockster canned products are gently steamed from raw in the BPA free can at minimum permitted temperatures for 2 hrs until the centre of each can reaches 121 degrees Celsius retaining nutrient value due to lack of oxidisation. Most canned pet foods are cooked (often processed multiple times) and then sterilised in the can for shorter periods at very high temperatures. The anaerobic manufacturing process means that no artificial preservatives are required.

​

Rockster Superfood is suitable for dogs with allergies due to its genuinely single protein formula, and absence of any harmful chemicals, allergens, cereals or gluten. This food contains Fermented Jerusalem Artichoke which is one of the richest sources of inulin (an indigestible fiber); fruit and vegetables such as Pumpkin and Spinach are also good sources of prebiotics.
