Established in 2006.
It all started with a passion to help our own aging cats and dogs get healthier. After a lifetime of eating processed food and a consequential lack of graceful aging, we realized that there was clearly a better way to feed them. We immediately started adding generous portions of real food to their commercial processed food. Not only did their quality of life and vitality increase by leaps and bounds, we believe they lived years longer as a result.

It all started with a passion to help our own aging cats and dogs get healthier. After a lifetime of eating processed food and a consequential lack of graceful aging, we realized that there was clearly a better way to feed them. We immediately started adding generous portions of real food to their commercial processed food. Not only did thier quality of life and vitality increase by leaps and bounds, we believe they lived years longer as a result. Our beloved eighty-five pound dog Rufus lived sixteen years and both our ten pound dog Pepper and our cat Dexter made it past seventeen. This only after the four years of fresh food additions to their diets. Over the years we started noticing the same trend with all the pets we knew. The pets fed name brand commercially processed food maintained what we called “surviving” mode, yet the fresher fed pets were always healthier! We called that “thriving” mode. These cumulative and clear-cut results were a driving force for us to open up our store
