Happy Tails Manufacturer
We are very pleased to be associated with our manufacturer who has state of the art equipment, the highest quality control and highest grade inspected ingredients. This, combined with qualified personnel, produces our 'superior' food for Happy Tails families' best friend!
In 1999 the manufacturing plant licensed to produce nutritious Happy Tails became the first plant to install a high tech 'Vacuum Infusion System' which forces the oil into the kibble for increased palibility.
The newly updated plant also has an 'Infrared Analysis System' to monitor the moisture, protein, fat & ash contents of our food. This infrared system allows the Quality Control System to continuously display these all-important content factors. In turn, this allows the quality control staff to adjust the manufacturing process, to hold these critical parameters, with narrow tolerance limits!
The production plant in Chilliwack, BC is the only Category #3 pet food facility in Canada and USDA (USA) and EU (Europe) approved. Happy Tails Manufacturer is a member of the 'Canadian Food Inspection Agency' (CFIA) also the PFAC industry information group.
Our holistic ingredient list meets and/or exceeds theNutrientProfiles of the AAFCO for assured ingredient nutrition.
