Cold pressed dog food is an increasingly popular choice for owners looking for a natural, minimally processed alternative to traditional dry kibble. Produced at lower temperatures, cold pressed food retains the natural properties of ingredients. Here are some features of cold pressed kibble that some owners appreciate:

A gentler feeding option: Some find the texture and composition of cold pressed kibble a gentler option on their dog's stomach. If your dog has specific digestive sensitivities, consult your vet.
Alternative to raw: Cold pressed kibble offers a convenient and dry alternative to raw food without requiring refrigeration.
The natural taste: There's no need to add artificial flavours or preservatives, as the original flavours and natural taste are preserved better when cooked at lower temperatures.
The simple texture: Cold pressed dry dog food tends to be less crunchy, making it easier for dogs of different ages to chew and enjoy.
