FRIDA’S COMMITMENT TO QUALITY FOOD

Before food or treats appear on our shelves they must pass a multi-step approval process. We look for foods with a simple list of carefully-chosen ingredients, avoiding any foods with unnamed animal parts, by-products, preservatives and added coloring. Most dogs seem to do better without grain, so the majority of our foods are grain-free.

We buy only from food makers we trust. We question who makes the food and where ingredients are sourced, and we stay on top of that as changes occur in the industry. As a smaller store we can be highly selective in the foods we carry and we only add a new food to our inventory after looking at reviews on Dog Food Advisor and Whole Dog Journal, and researching it thoroughly. We source foods regionally when possible and look for products which carry organic ingredients, human grade ingredients and use humane treatment of animals and humane processing of meats.

FEATURED FOODS

Answers Pet Food

Answers Pet Food is specifically formulated by a nutritional scientist to find the most appropriate fermented diet, using only whole raw foods. And, the only thing better than raw food is fermented raw food. Answers has 3 unique feeding formulas, each providing superior nutrition, using only the highest-quality sourced and fermented ingredients.

Nature’s Logic

Nature’s Logic is committed to providing the highest quality & safest nutrition for the furry members of your family.

Pea & Legume Free. Kibble needs a starch to hold its shape, but Nature’s Logic uses Millet- a grass seed. Millet is low in carbohydrates and sugars, and is a more natural starch that would be found in a wild dog’s diet.

100% Natural. All nutrition derived only from whole foods and all-natural ingredients.

Probiotics & Enzymes. Increase bio-availability and aid in digestion; found naturally in whole foods, plus added to dry kibble after cooking.

Free of Common Allergens. No corn, wheat, rice, soy, tapioca, or potato.

Nothing Artificial. No chemically-synthesized vitamins, minerals or man-made nutrients; no artificial flavorings, colorings or chemical preservatives.
