Commercial Diet Formulations
My recipes prioritize the use of premium-quality ingredients to ensure optimal nutrition that complies with the nutritional guidelines of your choice, including AAFCO, NRC, or FEDIAF. In addition, I focus on utilizing suitable ingredients that can be effectively absorbed by dogs. Unfortunately, many commercial pet foods only consider the nutritional composition on paper, while disregarding ingredient bioavailability or nutrient interactions.
Maintaining brand integrity is an integral aspect of fostering a reputable business. A well-formulated diet plays a critical role in preserving the health of dogs and establishing a robust, long-term clientele base. Therefore, business owners must prioritize the quality of their products and services to ensure sustainable growth and profitability.
Features
Free initial consultations are provided to discuss your companies goals and beliefs, expectations and deliverables. All consultations will be completed through email. A phone or video consultation can be purchased.
I offer both full diet formulations and base mix formulations. Both options will provide complete and balanced nutrition based on AAFCO or NRC nutrient guidelines for your selected life stage. All formulations utilize the same science backed information as my tailored formulations just at a larger scale.
Full Diet Formulations: These diets are prepared in full by your company and can be fed as a complete diet straight from the package.
Base Mix Formulations: These diets include a recipe for your company to prepare and sell with additional steps for the customer to prepare. These are similar to the “just add meat” dehydrated base mixes you can purchase.
I offer limited therapeutic commercial formulation options.
If you already have a recipe in mind but are unsure if it meets nutritional requirements or are looking for feedback, you can purchase a commercial diet analysis.
NOTE: This MUST be a recipe you formulated yourself. I cannot audit recipes you found online or purchased from another professional.
Each recipe comes with a chart of the expected nutritional analysis of the recipe compared to your selected nutritional requirements.
I always suggest completing full lab testing to confirm these numbers as they are simply an estimate based on known nutritional data.
A detailed feeding guideline chart will be provided so customers know how much to feed based on age, weight and energy levels.
One free adjustment is included per recipe incase of major supply chain issues, lab testing, desired changes based on client feedback, etc.
