Why fermentation?

People have trusted fermentation for thousands of years. Now it’s your dog’s turn.

Bread, yoghurt, cheese, tempeh: fermentation is one of the oldest and most trusted ways to create nourishing food. With LEVENDO™, HenArt brings this craft to the dog bowl, with our own fermentation blend at the heart of every recipe.

What is the LEVENDO™ fermentation blend?

It’s our own blend of several complementary ferments: proteins that are grown through fermentation instead of being harvested from a field or a farm. Each ferment brings its own nutritional strengths, and together they create a protein base unlike anything your dog has eaten before.

Nutrition grown in, not added on.

Why we chose fermentation-derived proteins

  • All 10 essential amino acids for dogs, naturally present in our ferments.
  • Highly digestible: in published dog studies, fermentation-derived proteins reach a digestibility of well over 80%.
  • Vitamin B12, naturally present in our ferments.
  • Naturally sourced beta-glucans and prebiotic fibres that support a healthy gut and the body’s natural defences.
  • A protein your dog has never met, which also makes LEVENDO™ a low-risk recipe for dogs with food allergies or intolerances.

Gently baked, never extruded

LEVENDO™ comes as semi-moist morsels: all the ease of dry food, all the love of wet. Instead of being extruded, they’re gently baked, which keeps them soft, aromatic and simply irresistible, while staying just as easy to store and portion as dry food.

  • Grain-free and gluten-free
  • No corn syrup, no propylene glycol, no artificial colours
  • Packed in small resealable bags to keep aroma and texture at their best

Made for every dog

LEVENDO™ is complete food for adult and senior dogs of every breed and size. It’s a delicious everyday choice for any dog, and a particularly good one for picky eaters, older dogs, weight-conscious dogs and dogs with a sensitive stomach.

Grown, not farmed

Fermentation grows protein in closed vessels, all year round, independent of weather, seasons and farmland. We believe this way of making protein has a big role to play in the future of pet food.
