Vitamin and mineral supplements are added to meet AAFCO nutritional profiles. Chewy’s Chicken Dinner for dogs, for example, contains farm-raised chicken as the primary ingredient plus organic cranberries, spinach, broccoli and beets.

And just like every Stella & Chewy’s dinner and treat, it’s made without grain, fillers, artificial preservatives or colorings – not even sugar or salt are added.

Anecdotal evidence suggests that pets are healthier, more energetic and less susceptible to disease when fed a raw diet. Among pet professionals, the verdict is still out on this issue. But like a growing number of consumers, Stella & Chewy’s founder Marie Moody is a raw diet believer.

The origin of Stella & Chewy’s traces back to an animal shelter in Los Angeles. Marie rescued Chewy (a real dog with serious health problems) from the shelter and upon a veterinarian’s recommendation, put him on a natural, raw meat diet.

To her amazement, Chewy was well on the road to recovery within days. Stella, Chewy’s best friend, also thrived on this diet.

This experience taught Marie that wholesome, less-processed food (and a lot of love) can dramatically improve a pet’s health. But the more she learned about animal nutrition, the less she could understand why there wasn’t a commercial product as good as what she could make at home.

So with the help of several veterinary nutritionists, Marie developed Stella & Chewy’s raw diets.

For all dogs and cats, Stella & Chewy’s offers a range of 100% nutritionally balanced and complete frozen dinners with fanciful names such as Duck Duck Goose, Charming Chicken, Dandy Lamb and Stella’s Super Beef. And playtime wouldn’t be complete without Carnivore Kisses and Carnivore Crunch freeze-dried treats.

The company also makes a full line of freeze-dried dinners made from the same premium ingredients as their frozen dinners.

For their complete peace of mind, pet owners can rest assured that every ingredient is sourced from reputable United States suppliers. And since every dinner and treat is made with real, raw meat, they’re full of flavor dogs and cats naturally crave.
