Frequently Asked Questions
Currently our NEW Performance Formula is sold exclusively through WildEarth.com, but will be added to Amazon.com, Chewy.com and Walmart.com inventory soon! Our Complete Protein formula and other products are available on Amazon.com, Chewy.com and Walmart.com. We are working hard to have our products available through local retail stores, so be on the lookout.
Short answer: No! Long answer: Dogs have evolved from their wolf ancestors into true omnivores. Meaning, they can break down protein from animal and plant sources. We created dog food formulas with only plant-based ingredients because plants allow us to provide your dog with a nutritionally-complete and balanced diet. That also saves millions of lives in the process. Dogs need protein and a specific blend of essential amino acids—both of which our formulas are guaranteed to have. Learn about our ingredients →
This depends on your dog’s age, size, breed, and any specific health goals you may have for your dog (ie weight gain, weight loss). Check out the feeding chart on this page or reach out to our knowledgeable Customer Success Team through the chat icon in the lower right of this page.
Yes! Our Performance Formula and Core Formula dog food meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for Maintenance.
We believe the AAFCO guidelines are a baseline requirement and our dog food formulas in many cases exceed these requirements.
Our new Performance Formula and Core Formula dog food recipes do not contain any legumes so even though there is no correlation between plant-based diets and DCM we have eliminated this from our new recipes! This is a complex issue, but with current information there is no correlation between plant-based diets and DCM.
All current data suggests that if a link, in fact, exists between diet and DCM, it may be due to nutritional deficiencies in the diet and since our food is nutritionally-complete, this won’t be an issue. For a full breakdown, read this article from our Chief Product Officer, Dr. Abril Estrada: What We Know About Canine DCM and It’s Link to Diet
