Nutritional Integrity<\/h1>\n
\n

QUALITY INGREDIENTS<\/h2>\n

When we made the conscious decision to only make pet food you\u2019d be proud to feed your own pet, we didn\u2019t skimp on quality. That’s why we source nutritious ingredients and establish solid relationships with our trusted suppliers. All of our formulas are unique, based on your pet\u2019s needs and life stage, but here are just a few of the quality ingredients you\u2019ll find in our products.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Real chicken, lamb, salmon, turkey, fowl, bison, venison and beef<\/li>\n
  • Vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes and spinach<\/li>\n
  • Fruits like raspberries, blueberries and cranberries<\/li>\n
  • Whole grains such as brown rice, barley and oatmeal<\/li>\n
  • Ancient grains like grain sorghum, millet, quinoa and chia seeds<\/li>\n
  • Prebiotics and probiotics for healthy digestion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
    \n

    SUPPLIER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM<\/h2>\n

    Our ingredients suppliers are approved through a rigorous process intended to validate commitments to food safety and ingredient quality, and also to ensure financial viability. Our method is to work with fewer suppliers under longer-term arrangements, rather than engage with a host of suppliers participating in a continual bid process. This approach fosters trust, collaboration and continual improvement, and works to encourage vendor-partners to make investments in quality control, food safety training and laboratory testing equipment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
