REAL FOODS ONLY
Every bag of Maev is made with whole foods you recognize. No fillers, no preservatives. Just real, functional ingredients. Raw means every nutrient stays intact: easy to digest, highly bioavailable, and packed with benefits. It's food that does more than fill a bowl — it supports healthy digestion, a shinier coat, stronger immunity, and a longer life.
Your dog is biologically primed to eat and absorb their daily intake of nutrients from a diet of high quality unprocessed foods.
RIGOROUSLY TESTED
Maev is the first 100% human-grade raw dog food — formulated by vets, backed by science, and built for how dogs are meant to eat.
Dogs are naturally equipped to thrive on raw. Their digestive systems are short, acidic, enzyme-rich and designed to break down raw meat and absorb nutrients efficiently.
WORLD-CLASS FOOD SAFETY
Our Raw Food is Human-Grade, PhD-Vet Formulated, made with USDA proteins, and rigorously tested for E.coli, Salmonella, Listeria, and Micro (APCs).
DOGS KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
You'll see it in their energy, their coat, their excitement at mealtime. It's not just that they love the food — their whole body responds to it.
Real food makes a real difference. Your dog's transformation starts here.

Why Frozen Is Best
Why Frozen Is Best
BENEFITS OF FROZEN
Frozen isn't just how Maev is stored — it's what makes the food so effective. Freezing locks in moisture and preserves the natural integrity of raw ingredients, so your dog gets the full nutritional value of every bite. Unlike high-heat processing, which degrades nutrients, freezing keeps them intact and fully bioavailable. It also supports hydration, promotes better digestion, and helps maintain the texture dogs love. That texture works naturally to reduce plaque buildup and support fresher breath.
Just open, pour, and serve.
NO MESS, NO PREP
Raw doesn't have to be complicated. Maev is ready to scoop and serve — no prep, no mess, no thawing required.
Nothing Compares to Maev
Thinking of switching your dog's current diet?
Use this tool to compare Maev to all your options.
When reading your dog's nutrition label, pay close attention to two things: "Dry Matter" and "As Fed" values. "Dry Matter" values provide the most accurate snapshot of protein, fat, and fiber content your dog's receiving. "As Fed" values indicate the food's moisture content (the amount of water found in the food). Proper hydration supports digestive function (think: better BMs), and dogs rely on diet to supplement their daily water intake.
FAQ
FAQ
Yes. Our Raw Food is PhD-Vet Formulated, USDA-Certified, AAFCO-Approved, Human-Grade, and rigorously tested for E.coli, Salmonella, Listeria, and Micro (APCs). Your dog is biologically primed to eat and absorb their daily intake of nutrients from a diet of raw meat. Unlike humans, your dog has a shorter gastrointestinal tract with higher levels of acidity which neutralizes any bad bacteria. (Also, contaminants cannot survive hostile, frozen states.) Oh, and if you're worried about cross-contamination after your dog eats raw meat and comes over to kiss you, don’t stress! Their saliva contains lysozyme — an enzyme that neutralizes bad bacteria.
It’s better — for a few reasons.
- It’s higher in protein than other “better-for-you” options like fresh or DIY home cooked.
- Unlike fresh, Maev does not utilize additives, fillers, synthetics, or high heat degradation of nutrients. Maev is made and served Raw while Fresh is highly processed and cooked using high heat temperatures.
- Most dog parents see, feel, and smell benefits — like a softer/ shinier coat, balanced energy, regular BMs, and better breath — in 28 days or less.
- It’s frozen for optimal nutrient absorption. (Fresh foods can still be highly processed and cooked at high heat temperatures which degrade nutrient values.) Because we freeze our key ingredients at approximately -14°F, smaller ice crystals form (which helps prevent moisture loss) to better protect the cell membrane of our whole ingredients. Your dog receives a fresher, cleaner feeding experience as well as better nutrient absorption during digestion. Plus, the frozen texture helps remove plaque buildup on teeth to support their oral health (and promote better breath).
- It’s easier. Unlike labor-intensive home cooked foods and stinky, hard-to-unpack-and-plate fresh, Maev comes bite-sized and ready to eat. No mess, no prep, no thawing necessary. Just open, pour, serve, and repeat.
Yes — for a few reasons. Kibble, dehydrated, and most fresh dog foods rely on binders (like carbohydrates) and preservatives to keep their foods shelf-stable (have next year’s expiration date). They also tend to be highly processed — they rely on high heat temperatures which degrade nutrient values and absorption of key vitamins, minerals, and macro and micro nutrients. Maev, on the other hand, is made with 11 straightforward ingredients (including USDA lean proteins, whole fruits and vegetables, and scientifically studied supplements). It’s frozen at approximately -14°F, forming smaller ice crystals (which helps prevent moisture loss) to better protect the cell membrane of our whole ingredients. Plus, the frozen texture helps remove plaque buildup on teeth to support their oral health (and promote better breath).
