Our in-house pet nutritionists play a crucial role in the creation of Purina Beyond® dog food. From choosing ingredients to overseeing every step of the formulation process, they optimize the way ingredients and essential nutrients come together to support your pet’s long-term health and well-being. No one is more qualified than a pet nutritionist to formulate and monitor the food you give your pet each day.

5 Steps to Evaluating an Ingredient

	Consider the ingredient as one part of a total formula for optimal nutrition
	Work with the product specialist to evaluate the ingredient throughout the cooking process
