Nutrition done differently: Science with superpowers from nature
At Alvar Pet, nutrition starts with one simple belief: dogs have different needs — and their food should reflect that.
We develop needs-based dog nutrition, combining cutting-edge science with functional ingredients sourced from nature. The result is food designed to support long-term health, not just fill the bowl.
This approach is brought to life through our detailed nutritional compositions that define the health benefits of every recipe. Each formulation includes:
- Precisely balanced nutrients
- Carefully selected functional ingredients
- Vitamins and minerals in the right amounts
Whether your dog is picky, sensitive, slowing down with age, or bursting with puppy energy — there’s a composition designed specifically for them.
Meet Dr Alvar: Veterinary expertise at the core
Behind every recipe is Dr. Alvar herself.
Henna Söderholm, co-founder of Alvar Pet, veterinarian, and Head of Product Development, is the driving force behind our nutritional philosophy. With over a decade of experience in animal nutrition and a PhD in food safety, Henna brings rare expertise to every formulation.
This means our food isn’t just developed to sound good — it’s designed to work, backed by veterinary insight and rigorous safety standards.
