freshfetch™ Real Meals for Dogs

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 home style.

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.

After a year eating freshfetch foods, Otis is seizure-free, and, in an added surprise, his chronic ear infections and insomnia have also cleared up! Here's Maryellen & Otis' story!
