The Honest Kitchen Whole Grain Chicken Dry Dog Food for Small Breeds, 10 lb Bag

At our core, we believe that providing pets with fresh, clean ingredients that undergo minimal processing ensures they receive the best possible nutrition. Crafted in collaboration with a veterinary nutritionist, our 100% human-grade clusters use cage-free chicken (with no rendered meals!), an array of vegetables, salmon oil, and probiotics, all tailored specifically for small dogs. To preserve the flavor and nutrition of whole foods, we utilize a combination of cold pressing, slow roasting, and dehydrating, resulting in perfectly sized bites for their small mouths. Each batch is lovingly produced in our human-grade kitchen, embodying a commitment to quality without compromise.

ABOUT OUR GRAIN-FREE CHICKEN WHOLE FOOD CLUSTERS

We hold firm to the principle that fresh, clean ingredients with minimal processing deliver the finest nutrition for pets. These clusters, developed with the expertise of a veterinary nutritionist, consist entirely of real whole foods. Each batch is carefully prepared in small quantities, subject to cold pressing, slow roasting, and dehydration processes to maintain the essential nutrients, flavors, and textures that whole foods offer. They look different because they are truly different, freshly made in our kitchen for you and your pets!

THE HONEST DIFFERENCE

Unlike most pet food manufacturers, who would hesitate to welcome you into their processing plants, we invite you into our kitchen. Founded in 2002 within our founder's family kitchen, where meals were lovingly prepared for both humans and pets, we continue to use that same passion and uncompromising quality. The ingredients we select are those you would recognize from your own kitchen, meeting the rigorous standards of safety and quality that apply to human food. If we wouldn't serve it at our own dinner table, it certainly won’t be fed to your pet.

INGREDIENTS WITH INTEGRITY

We use only wholesome, recognizable ingredients—from eggs and salmon to pumpkin and parsley. The absence of undesirable components is just as significant as what we include. All our food is made in the USA and is free from unsafe or unhealthy ingredients commonly found in feed-grade products:

• No by-products or fillers
• No additives or preservatives
• No “4D” meats or feathers
• No corn, wheat, or soy
• No ingredients sourced from China
• No GMO ingredients

Our suppliers are required to comply with our strict standards for food safety, health, sustainability, and fair trade. Annually, they sign our “Human Food Grade” and “Statement of Quality and Integrity,” demonstrating our high expectations.

MADE HONESTLY, WITH LESS PROCESSING

Our process involves:

1. Starting Fresh: We begin by mixing 100% human-grade batches of fresh meat and produce.
2. Cold Pressing: Whole foods are then cold pressed into pure and flavorful food clusters.
3. Slow Roasting and Dehydrating: Each cluster is carefully slow roasted and gently dehydrated to lock in maximum nutrition.

WHY HUMAN GRADE MATTERS

For veterinarians, food safety experts, and informed pet owners, the distinction between 100% human-grade foods and feed-grade products is clear. Our food is superior, promising a level of quality and safety unmatched by any feed-grade offerings. We only use the finest ingredients from reliable sources, avoiding any inferior, feed-grade components. Our preparation methods exceed safety standards that are seven times stricter than those for feed-grade products. Not only do we meet the highest criteria for food safety and quality, but we also pioneered these standards. While some brands have followed our example, many still rely on lesser-quality, feed-grade ingredients. Once you grasp this difference, you'll never want to revert to feed-grade options again.

THE WORLD’S FIRST HUMAN GRADE DRY DOG FOOD

Traditional pet food is typically classified as ‘feed grade.’ Our Whole Food Clusters are groundbreaking as the world’s first human-grade dry food, composed entirely of 100% human-grade ingredients and produced in a facility designed for human food. This commitment ensures better quality ingredients and enhanced safety standards akin to what you would expect for your own meals.
