About Halo Purely for Pets®:
For twenty years, Halo, Purely for Pets, has created holistic pet products of uncompromising quality. At Halo, we believe nutrition is the single most important factor in the quality of your pet?s life. With it, good health follows. By staying as close to nature as we can, we have seen phenomenal changes take place in the lives of thousands of pets and the owners who love them.
In 1986, Andi Brown founded Halo, Purely for Pets® after her cat ?Spot? was plagued by digestive problems, skin irritations and excessive shedding. Andi soon learned that all of Spot?s symptoms were a direct result of nutrients lacking in his diet. Finding ?premium? cat foods seriously lacking, she created a ?stew? made from all natural ingredients and Spot was soon cured of his ailments and healthy again.
Since Halo?s inception, the company has been an active advocate helping conscientious pet owners better understand how nutrition plays a role in their pet?s health and vitality. Named for our belief that pets are our little angels, Halo continues to develop innovative and high quality pet products which help pet-owners better love and care for their 'extra member of the family.'
