Details
Stella & Chewy’s Cage-free Small Breed Recipe is a grain-free baked kibble with added features for small-breed dogs. The kibble is about half the size of other Stella and Chewy’s kibbles, making it even easier for small breed dogs to chew. This recipe is slightly higher in protein and fat—and therefore in calories—which means that this kibble is a fabulous option for finicky small dogs who don’t often eat all of what is put in their bowl. Chicken cartilage increases the glucosamine and chondroitin content, and turmeric aids with digestion and joint health. As with the original Cage-free Chicken Recipe, the Small Breed Recipe is a single-protein kibble made with USA sourced chicken and coated with freeze dried raw chicken. This diet incorporates a variety of fruits, vegetables, and organ meats that contribute to the vitamin and mineral content of the food, meaning fewer vitamins and minerals need to be added to make the diet complete and balanced.
About The Manufacturer
In the early 2000's, Stella & Chewy’s founder, Marie found out her rescue dog Chewy was sick with distemper and began to prepare and feed him a raw diet. When Chewy’s health quickly and dramatically improved, Marie decided to bring raw food to the masses. Starting from a tiny kitchen in a Manhattan apartment and making deliveries by taxi, Stella and Chewy’s is now based out of Wisconsin, but is still committed to making the highest quality and safest food for your pets.
