What's Inside:
-
Vet-Approved Recipes
All of our recipes have been developed and reviewed by veterinary nutritionists and are formulated to meet or exceed AAFCO guidelines.
-
Human-Grade Ingredients
We only use fresh, whole USDA-quality ingredients when crafting your pet's meals. All of our ingredients are consciously sourced from farms we trust.
-
Minimal Processing
When we say raw, we really mean it. We do as little as possible to process your pet's meals to maintain good bacteria and nutrient bioavailability.
FAQs
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes! We offer free shipping to most of the US on all orders over 20 lbs.
Who formulates your recipes?
Our recipes are formulated with top experts, veterinarians, and veterinary nutritionists. All of our recipes are reviewed and approved by our advisory panel of vets and vet nutritionists.
Are you ingredients ethically sourced?
Yes. All of our ingredients are sourced from farms we trust. We visit each farm regularly to ensure not only the quality of the ingredients but to ensure the farm meets are rigorous standards for humane treatment of both staff and animals.
What's the difference between BioLogics and Natural Selections?
We strive to make raw feeding as accessible as possible for as many pet parents as possible. We recognize feeding large dogs or a large pack of dogs can be expensive, and so we developed our BioLogics Line.
BioLogics uses the exact same recipes as our Natural Selections line. Both are complete and balanced for all life stages. Both are minimally processed, biologically-appropriate, and inspired by their ancestral diet. Both use human-grade ingredients only sourced from farms we trust.
The primary difference is that while Natural Selections uses only antibiotic-free meats and organic vegetables, BioLogics uses conventional ingredients. These farms still meet all of our ethical standards. But sourcing conventional ingredients for our BioLogics recipes allows us to price them about 15% lower than our Natural Selections line, making it a more accessible way to feed raw.
