We’ve been trained to feed commercial supermarket “dog food.”
5 things every dog parent should know
Meat by-products are common in cheaper supermarket brands, which are composed of rendered leftover animal parts. Instead of going to landfill, diseased meats are allowed in dog food if rendered at high heat (source: AAFCO). These by-products are generally not fit for human consumption, so why would we feed our dogs this?
Cooking wet and dry food using extreme high temperature vats results in significant vitamin and nutrient loss. Cooking at very high temperatures is known to produce carcinogens. Artificial preservatives are used to preserve dog food so it can sit on supermarket shelves for months and months.
While the picture on the bag suggests that the brown ball inside was made with a beautiful chicken breast on a picturesque farm, the reality can instead be low quality by-product chicken leftover waste, mixed with grains, fillers and artificial preservatives.
Mars and Nestle together own most of the brands on our supermarket shelves. Choice is a misconception. They train our vets, publish the research and own some of the vets. Read the packaging, understand the ingredients if you don’t want a candy company making your Fido’s food.
Obesity is the biggest health issue facing our dogs. According to research conducted by the RSPCA, 33.5% of dogs are overweight, and of that, 8% are obese. Feeding guidelines by pet food companies have conditioned us to over feeding with a one-size fits all approach.
What's AAFCO and FEDIAF?
Complete and balanced dog food should follow AAFCO guidelines (American Pet Food Industry Guidelines) and/or FEDIAF guidelines (European Pet Food Industry Federation). These guidelines help ensure that the dog food you're feeding your Fido has undergone the appropriate analysis and has the necessary, required nutrients.
Fido Fresh recipes exceed both guidelines.
Nutritional Analysis
When buying food for your Fido, make sure AAFCO and/or FEDIAF Pet Food Industry Guidelines are clearly displayed, and the nutritional breakdown shown.
- Guaranteed Analysis - lists the percentage of each of the nutrients in the food.
- Nutritional Adequacy Statement - indicates that the food is complete and balanced for a particular life stage.
- Feeding Guidelines - indicates how much to feed your Fido. See our Feeding guidelines for our Chicken Dish with Salmon recipe here.

I have two fussy poodles and so far they’ve been on Fido fresh for a month and are still loving it. I like the ease of having quality food for my dogs with real ingredients I can see and know are healthy for my dogs without having to make it myself and can see the benefits it is having on my dogs health and well being
Fabulous company with amazing customer service. My dog says the food itself is completely yummy!
Since adding Fido fresh to our 12 years olds diet we have seen a significant change in his mobility, coat and excitement at dinner time. A great local business we are so happy to support.

Having a chihuahua that has Addisons disease keeping her food ultra healthy to keep her stress levels down (in addition to regular monthly vet visits) is paramount. Daisy loves her Fido Fresh meal and it is the first thing she eats if she has other foods in her bowl. Highly Recommended
