Our dry food has been prepared with FSG (Fleischsaftgarung). FSG is a method of preparing fresh meat. It comes from the kitchen rather than the feed industry. It was modelled on techniques that top chefs often use to prepare meat, in a tastier and also healthier way.
With FSG (Fleischsaftgarung), fresh meat is cooked in a vacuum at low temperature, using only its own meat juices. After a long cooking time, during which the moisture of the meat juice is slowly reduced, this dry food is created.
The dry food prepared with FSG (Fleischsaftgarung) is primarily cooked meat which means following for your dog:
extra tasty,
as nutritious as BARF,
excellent for building muscle,
quickly digestible,
effectively absorbed and
chewable-soft due to the meat juice.
Our dry food also reduces the risk of gastric torsion because it does not swell in the stomach.
Safe and honest For you, we have our dry food tested regularly and independently by one of the most renowned test centres in Germany, ELAB Analytik GmbH (formerly TÜV SÜD ELAB). What is tested:
Our fresh meat content: Checking recipe compliance at the point of preparation
For contaminants, to protect the health of your best friend
Our declaration
Food change We recommend an immediate change of dog food without a transitional phase. Due to the differences in digestibility, mixing PLATINUM Dry Food with another dry food is not advisable.
Please note the following points when feeding:
Serve dry or slightly moistened with water.
Do not let the food soak for a long time, serve immediately.
Always provide your dog with fresh water.
Initially please feed using the lower recommended amount, only serve more if required.
Luke has had stomach problems since he was a puppy. Even changing over to well-known food types has not helped. I heard about PLATINUM from a friend, but I was very sceptical initially. As with all recommendations, I did some thorough research first, but I was quickly convinced by the many positive customer reviews and the excellent composition of the food. Ordering and delivery were both very quick. I immediately switched Luke to PLATINUM and after 4 days he was feeling better than ever.
No more stomach problems
and he was much better in general. I definitely won’t change again, and my next dog will also get PLATINUM.

My 1.5-year-old French Bulldog Cuba has been fed PLATINUM Iberico+Greens dry dog food for about four months. We had previously tried dry foods from other manufacturers, but we always had problems with tolerance or taste. Someone recommended PLATINUM to us and now we are loyal customers! The food smells pleasant, doesn’t swell and is easily digestible for Cuba. The fact that he runs like crazy to his food bowl every morning shows how tasty he thinks his food is.
We have also been using PLATINUM's Click-Bits and Fit-Sticks as motivation for dog sports for a while now. We have only had good experiences with these products too!
We highly recommend PLATINUM!

We only have positive things to say about this dog food. Jago has a PLATINUM Chicken subscription. He loves to eat the food, which is very good for him.
We’re also really happy with Platinum's excellent service

We have been using PLATINUM wet and dry dog food since we got our dog in 2015. No matter what flavour, she enjoys eating it and tolerates it very well.
Many people notice that Sally has a beautiful shiny coat
and I think this is mainly due to her diet.
We usually add a little “sauce” from the wet food to the dry food, which she really loves :)

Unfortunately, Loki is quite picky with food. After weeks of trying everything, we were recommended PLATINUM. We tried the wet food MENU Pure Fish. I have to say that the TetraPaks are a bit strange at first and I had certain reservations about the portion size. However, the food comes out of the pack easily and can then be thrown in the bin to save space. It has a very soft consistency, a bit like a mousse. It is really well digested, and Loki appears to enjoy it :)
No more diarrhoea or flatulence!
We have only been a customer of PLATINUM for a short time and are so far very satisfied.
If you want to offer your dog a little variety, you can easily switch
between all types of PLATINUM food. It does not matter whether you give
wet food in the morning and dry food in the evening or vice versa. A
combination of wet and dry food in one meal is also possible, as both
forms of feeding have the same digestibility with PLATINUM.
Every dog is descended from the wolf, and the digestive tract is designed for the consumption of meat. Our dry food and wet food are designed to be easily consumed by all dogs - from Chihuahuas to Great Danes - and meet the needs of all breeds equally. Different sizes of dry food and wet food make it easier to portion out the food. The recipe and composition remain identical in all sizes to ensure consistent quality and optimum nutrition.
Healthy senior dogs can continue to be fed with PLATINUM, as our food is very easy to digest and the ingredients it contains are of very high quality. Please note, however, that a dog's metabolism decreases with age and the amount of food should be reduced if necessary.
However, if your senior dog has special dietary requirements and a reduction in the amount of food is not enough to maintain its weight, we recommend that you switch to special senior food. Our subsidiary PLATINUM VETACTIVE offers senior dogs nutrition that is tailored precisely to their needs.
If your dog is diagnosed with a disease in old age, we recommend an individual consultation with our veterinary department.
We recommend an immediate change in dog food without a transition phase. Due to the different digestibility, it is not recomendable to mix PLATINUM dry food with any other dry food.
No, you can rely on the fact that no animal experiments are done for the product development and production of our food and care products - neither by us, nor by any other third party.
Whether you give your dog Adult Chicken (Mini), Adult Beef (Mini), Adult Lamb (Mini) or Adult Iberico (Mini) depends on your dog's preferences and which flavours they like best. Of course, you can also switch between the three flavours as you wish. Your dog will be optimally supplied with all the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals they need with each of our food varieties. We offer smaller kibbles for dogs up to 10 kg with our “Mini” variants.
You can obtain more information on the optimum feeding quantity via our digital feed advisor, which calculates your dog's individual requirements quickly and conveniently.
We recommend storing our dry food in the included bag. The food is packed airtight in the bag immediately after production and is not stored temporarily. To keep the contents as fresh and flavourful as possible, our bags have an integrated freshness seal.
In principle, a change is possible at any time. Different varieties can also be fed on the same day. However, we recommend feeding the opened bag first. In addition a selection in the bowl should be avoided, especially during the change phase to Platinum or if there are known intolerances.
The dry food can be kept unopened or opened after production for 18 months until the best-before date. The wet food can be kept unopened for 36 months and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days after opening.
All information regarding the minimum shelf life of unopened PLATINUM food can also be found on the product packaging.
