Novel or 'exotic' proteins like bison, venison, salmon, kangaroo, insects, rabbit, duck, mussels, and even plant proteins for our pups and cats can be a pivotal dietary addition. Studies have shown that dogs who consume the same protein source, meal after meal, are more prone to food or environmental allergies and the symptoms that come with them.

Our extracts are made from certified organic mushrooms, the fruiting body specifically. The functional mushrooms we source are grown naturally on substrate materials native to each particular mushroom. We currently use:

Red Reishi: Supports a state of calm and reduces stress. Enhances immune system response.

Shiitake: Can reduce inflammation and boost longevity, cell function, and gut function.

Maitake: Helps suppress physical and mental stress and stimulates the immune system.

Lion's Mane: Stimulates healthy gut bacteria and boosts the immune system. Also known for reducing improving memory, focus and concentration; great for training!

Turkey Tail: Restores healthy immune response a powerful immune modulator rich in Beta D-Glucans. This mushroom also possesses anti-viral, anti-microbial anti-bacterial properties.

Chaga: Anti-inflamatory, antioxidant boost, improves gut, immunity and total organ health. Also helps with muscle fatigue.

Alfalfa: Rich in vitamins and essential amino acids. Alfalfa has a long history of use as a powerful antioxidant to treat conditions caused by inflammation and oxidative damage.

Kelp: This is the Super-Superfood! Regulates glandular activity in the adrenal, pituitary, and thyroid glands. Great for skin allergies, as it helps reduce itching and inflammation. Contains protein and amino acids that help tissue repair. Iodine content helps to stimulate thyroid activity, speeding metabolism and weight loss. Improves glandular activity and healthy metabolism. High-fiber content helps digestion.

Noni: Sweet blue cheese aroma dogs love. Houses a broad spectrum of nutrients and antioxidants and acts as an anti-parasitic.

We use USDA human-grade livestock that are safely ground, blended then formed into bites and slowly freeze-dried for 48 hours. Our process not only preserves nutrients, but also naturally preserves the intense aroma, irresistible flavor and crunchy bite of these rewards. Bones and organs are an essential part of the canine appropriate diet.

Studies suggest that like their wolf ancestors, or even African wild dogs, our domesticated pups greatly benefit from whole animal nutrients. Dogs instinctively crave organs and bones and not just for flavor and texture. Bones and antlers are dense in calcium which is vital to your dog's skeletal health and magnesium, which helps their body absorb calcium and other minerals. Organs are B-vitamin and vitamin A power foods and are rich in minerals like zinc, iron, magnesium, copper and manganese. Each organ has different concentrations of these nutrients which is why we blend them to reflect a more species-appropriate diet.

Some fruits and vegetables are great snacks for dogs and are beneficial to good health when used sparingly. Chef adds just enough blueberries to our natural duck dog (&cat!) treats to mimic what a predator may find in the stomach of its prey in the wild. Wolves in Minnesota have recently been observed eating wild blueberries right off the bush and feeding them to their pups. This makes perfect sense to us. Blueberries are powerful superfoods, high in antioxidants and possess anti-inflammatory benefits which easily fit into your pet's daily wellness routine.

Natural mixed tocopherols are forms of vitamin E that help maintain the freshness and shelf life of our treats. We use them because they are a natural alternative to synthetic antioxidants, such as BHT, BHA and TBHQ. Also, vitamin E is essential to the canine diet and helps stop the cycle of cell damage.
