Akela kibble is extruded with a Thermal Twin extruder using the lowest temperatures possible; producing more digestible foods without the nutrient degradation that can be seen at high temperature processing. The extrusion and drying processes do not use very high temperatures – just over 90 degrees centigrade (the minimum for safety reasons) and under 180 degrees centigrade - this is lower than you would cook a pizza at! This means that proteins stay highly digestible and natural vitamins and minerals survive the process better. Some ingredients are added after extrusion too - for example all vitamin levels stated in the nutritional additive section are added after cooking to guarantee minimum levels.

But now she scoffs the lot when we put down her bowl.
Can't believe I found a dry food that she eats so quickly, was getting worried she wasn't eating enough before!
The bite size pieces also helped I think as Millie's was on the big side.
Would highly recommend this food for your dog! (Posted on 04/02/2016) - Best food I've found Review by Tina

I have given him 'the best foods' possible over the years, going through at least 4-5 different ones over his lifetime. None have completely stopped his sloppy poo, improved yes but never has he had firm faeces - until now. Even his flaky skin has completely gone; just a shame it didn't stop his allergies but that is environmental so nothing to do with his food intake.
I thought he would need as much each meal as his old food but this isn't the case, in fact its half of what he is used to have so this food is sooooo good in so many ways and best of all - HE LOVES IT.
Thank you Akela for giving us a damn decent food for our beloved animals. (Posted on 06/11/2015) - Puppy loves it Review by Sam
