freshfetch™ Real Meals for Dogs

Concerned about raw food recalls? So are we. Here's what we do to help keep freshfetch™ foods safe and to keep your trust:

Our gentle cooking uses common sense to greatly reduce the possiblity of food-borne pathogens, while leaving the amino acid profile virtually identical to that of raw.
All food operations in our kitchens employ ServSafe™ guidelines and are supervised by a ServSafe™ certified food handler.

Easily exceeds AAFCO standards

AAFCO uses a modified technique for calculating the metabolizable energy (ME) in most dog foods. They must do this because most dog foods aren't highly digestible. Real Meals for Dogs™ ME are calculated using the same techniques that apply for human food.

Our real-food meals exceed every nutritional category requirement for Macronutrients (Protein, Fat & Carbohydrate) and Micronutrients (Vitamins, Minerals, Amino Acids, etc.) set by AAFCO. Then, we add Omega-6 & Omega-3 essential fatty acids in a proper ratio.

And, these meals meet or exceed even the more demanding National Research Council's nutrition guidelines.

As Digestible as your own food, and Suitable for Your Table

To answer the question of suitablilty for your dog, answer the question for yourself. Veterinarians and nutritionists alike all say, the best food for your dog is the same food you eat yourself.

We prepare the same quality of food for these meals as you would expect to be served at your own table, so it's fully digestible, appetizing, and nutritious.

The Nutrition of Raw, Meets the Safety of Homestyle.

We cook meats & fish to temperatures that leave amino acid profiles virtually identical to that of the same protein when raw, while greatly reducing the possibility of food-borne pathogens.

USDA Inspected

All of our ingredients are USDA inspected Grade A.

Zero Processing

Except for gentle cooking we don't process our foods at all. We pack every meal in transparent, environmentally conscious packaging, so you can see exactly what you're feeding before you buy.

Complete Nutrition

You won't have to add any supplemental vitamins or minerals to your dog's food when you feed Real Meals for Dogs. They're included. And, they're from the best natural vitamin and mineral sources we can find.

FDA-Nutrition Labels

No other pet food manufacturer provides FDA nutrition labels like the ones you see on your own food. Why? FDA labeling requires accurate disclosure. It's hard to hide just what and how much is in your food. That's why we use them. We want you to know.

No Preservatives

And we mean none.

No Artificial Anything

We even reject "organic" foods when we test them and find trace chemicals in them.

Recognizable Ingredients

You'll recognize, and be able to pronounce, every ingredient.

Why freshfetch™?

We went right for the best. Forget trying to cut corners for profits or for big box pet food stores. We include all the cancer protecting, heart disease preventing fresh-to-market whole foods you'd expect for yourself in our Real Meals for Dogs.™ Our preparation retains the best of raw nutrition, leaving vegetables substantially raw and selectively and gently cooking meats & fish just enough to greatly reduce the presence of food-borne pathogens; and so that the resulting amino acid profile is virtually identical to the same protein when raw.

Then, there's our OURganic Screening. Did you know that foods with "Organic" on the label are still allowed to contain up to 5% synthetic substances? We think this is unacceptable. Read more about what we're doing here.

It's can be hard to tell which food for your dog is best. Every new entry into the group of new frozen foods for dogs all claim to be the best options for feeding your dog. There's raw frozen, cooked frozen, frozen patties, frozen chubs...

Then, there's freshfetch Real Meals for Dogs.™

Your eyes don't lie.

What does color tell us about food? Colors in foods signal the presence of potent micronutrients. Over-processing changes the color of foods, because it changes food properties. Here is just some of the color code working in freshfetch meals:
Red (Meats)	Iron, Zinc, Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Protein, B-Vitamins, Selenium, Vitamin-D
Orange & Yellow	Cancer & heart disease fighting antioxidants, beta carotene, Vitamin-A, Vitamin-C, colon cancer fighting folate
Green	Lutein, phytonutrients, colon cancer fighting folate
Blue	Flavonoids, a cancer fighting rich antioxidant and free radical scavenger.
