"As a dog breeder, I am aware of the limitations of conventional dog roll. As a science graduate, I am also aware of the need for dogs to have a steady diet of fresh meat.
With Essentials I have created a nutritionally balanced dog food that only uses ingredients that your pets require in their diet. Essentials is enhanced with natural amino acid concentrates to give your dog a complete range of digestible protein designed to promote your dog's health and well being."

| Isoleucine | (See valine) Involved in protein synthesis and energy production. Supports optimum growth in immature dogs. |
| Leucine | (See valine) Optimises growth. Helps maintain muscle strength during times of stress and intensive exercise. |
| Lycine | Promotes bone growth in puppies. |
| Methionine | Help fat accumulation in the liver. Supports liver in detoxification. precursor of L-carnitine (essential for energy and muscle production). |

| Threonine | Regulates energy requirements. Essential for optimum growth and feed conversion. |
| Tryptophan | Aids in blood clotting. Produces serotonin which is needed for sleep. |
