Why raw is best.
Raw food is the most nutrient-rich, least processed diet available for dogs—their biology requires nutrition that only a raw diet can provide.
Most kibble companies don’t want you to know that, but the science is simple. When we listen to what our dogs really need, they reach their longest & fullest lives possible.

Supplements that support.
We source our vitamins from food ingredients, never artificially isolated nutrients, so they're safer and more easily digested.
Weight & Digestion
Digestive Enzymes
Enzymes work in your dog’s stomach to help break down their food and promote essential nutrient absorption. While our dogs produce digestive enzymes naturally, sometimes they don’t produce enough for optimal nutrient absorption, which causes stress on their entire digestive system. By fortifying the naturally-occurring enzymes found in raw foods you can be sure that your dog always gets the most out of their meal.
Probiotics
The balance of good and bad bacteria that help with digestion and immunity depends on your dog’s diet. We use species-specific probiotics because the bacteria in your gut evolve species-specific traits. (Crazy, right?)
Chicory Root
Chicory root is a naturally-fibrous prebiotic and probiotic that encourages gut restoration and smooth digestion. A centuries-old digestive remedy, chicory works in your dog’s stomach to promote good bacteria while dispelling the bad.
Anxiety & Mental Health
Thiamine B1
Thiamine is critical for metabolizing carbohydrates, and aids in the nervous system. It’s believed to support brain function, as well as prevent confusion and fatigue. Dogs require this essential vitamin for metabolism and can’t synthesize it themselves, so it must be incorporated into their diet.
Chamomile
Eases stress, indigestion and gas.
Chamomile, often used in human herbal medicine, acts as a mild sedative to relax muscles and relieve anxiety. It also contains apigenin and chamazulene which provide anti-inflammatory benefits.
Bovine Colostrum
A nutrient-rich form of bovine milk that we add in powder form. It contains extraordinary antibody proteins with hyperimmunity and anxiety-reducing properties that rival the effectiveness of synthetic benzodiazepines.
L-Theanine
An amino acid known to calm, increase serotonin and dopamine, and reduce anxiety. Commonly found in green tea, L-theanine helps regulate your dog’s physiological stress response, resulting in less panting, drooling, lip licking, yawning, and barking.
Skin & Coat
Omega 3, 6 Fish Oils
Fish oils are rich in fatty acids to support fur, skin, joint, and immune health.
Hip & Joint
Elderberry
A natural, plant-based supplement, elderberry is packed with calcium, potassium and iron, and is easy to integrate into your dog's diet to maintain strong bones.
Turmeric
Turmeric, which contains curcumin, helps reduce inflammation and joint pain while also potentially preventing diseases caused by chronic inflammation such as arthritis.
Chondroitin
Chondroitin helps alleviate stiffness while also strengthening, repairing, and maintaining joints.
Glucosamine
Glucosamine rebuilds cartilage, reduces inflammation, and improves overall mobility.
