We use real, unprocessed, bioavailable, and nutrient-rich ingredients that are in their natural state. Our meats are inspected and approved by the USDA for human consumption, and all our ingredients are the same as yiu would find in a restaurant or grocery store. In fact, we use the same premium suppliers as the restaurant industry to source the highest quality ingredients for our meals. We never use preservatives, by-products, additives, or fillers.

Yes, and we went beyond AAFCO's requirements. Frankly, nutritional deficiencies and other health issues can take longer to develop than a six month trial period. AAFCO requires a feeding trial period of six months. To ensure dog owners are getting the best human-grade pet food products available for overall health, JustFoodForDogs completed 12-month feeding trials instead. AAFCO protocol simply doesn’t cover all the bases. Since day one, we have balanced our food to National Research Council (NRC) standards. The NCR reports directly to the FDA and is the most up-to-date authority on nutritional guidelines.

JustFoodForDogs is the most research-and-education-focused fresh pet food company in the industry. Each of our recipes has gone through extensive research at a major university and is involved in ongoing clinical trials.
