Nature's Blend Food Safety

Uncompromising Safety Standards for Your Dog's Health

Bacteria that cause spoilage or foodborne illness need moisture to grow. So by freeze-drying, we remove moisture to inhibit bacterial growth. Our freeze-drying process is so exact, our formula has even less moisture than most dry food and kibble!

We also use a process called High-Pressure Processing (HPP) to help destroy harmful pathogens in the raw ingredients we use. As a result, Nature’s Blend is delicious and full of nutrients like fresh food. But it’s shelf-stable, high-quality for your dog, and convenient like kibble.

Our Comprehensive Safety Process

We use a specialized process called High-Pressure Processing (HPP) to help eliminate harmful bacteria and ensure your dog's food is nutrient-rich.

The average dog food company uses nutrient-destroying heat to kill bacteria and artificial preservatives to make their food shelf-stable. But HPP uses water pressure to destroy harmful pathogens at the cellular level without heat. This helps protect the essential nutrients from REAL food your dog needs to thrive.

Gold Standard Testing

All of our freeze-dried raw food goes through independent certified laboratories — the gold standard for analytical testing accuracy. Every single batch must pass pathogen screening including salmonella and E. coli testing before release. In other words, we go above and beyond to ensure EVERY bag of Nature’s Blend is safe for your pup to eat.

Certified Facilities You Can Trust

Our freeze-dried raw facilities maintain FDA registration, BRC Certification (British Retail Consortium Global Standard for Food Safety), and CFIA registration (Canadian Food Inspection Agency). We're also APHIS certified for international export standards. So every batch of your dog’s premium freeze-dried raw food is made in our top-grade facilities, right here in the US.

Why Our Safety Protocols Matter

Some raw foods may harbor bacteria that can make your dog sick, which is why we follow the most rigorous safety protocols in the industry.

We use a combination of HPP technology, freeze-drying, and third-party validated testing to help eliminate bacteria and ensure your dog's safety.
