Frequently Asked Questions
Each Perfect Dog Food Mix recipe has been formulated to ensure your dog consumes the proper amounts of vitamins and minerals per AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles. We have created everything from simple, two-ingredient recipes for a variety of meats to fun, picky eater recipes like Beef Wellington and Chicken Pot Pie. View our chef-created recipes made specifically for Perfect Dog Food Mix on our recipe website here.
There are several key factors that may indicate insufficient nutrients in your dog’s current food. The most common are bad breath, skin issues, lack of energy, body odor and excessive fur loss. Yumwoof uses all-natural ingredients without any fillers, soy, gluten, wheat, rice, peas, lentils, legumes or potatoes. All of our homemade recipes meet or exceed AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles, making sure your dog consumes all the vitamins and minerals they need to live an active, healthy lifestyle.
Cooking for your dog can offer many benefits, including diet management, improved metabolism and lower rates of diabetes, cancer and heart disease. However, the most common mistake pet parents make with homemade recipes is that they are nutritionally incomplete—lacking essential vitamins and minerals your dog needs to stay healthy. Perfect Dog Food Mix takes out all the guesswork ensuring your dog receives the proper amounts according to AAFCO’s Dog Food Nutrient Profiles.
Yes. Add extra 1 Tbsp of water to recipe seen on bag and serve to your dog raw. Although PDFM recipes can be served raw, we suggest our baking method for optimal health. Raw ground meat is exposed to different bacteria than fresh raw meat in the wild. Did you know cooked meat has higher digestibility than raw?
Yes. Cook a single meal portion in the microwave for 2½ minutes. Your dog will receive the same amount of vitamins and minerals as our baking method.
Carbohydrates are chains of sugar molecules used by your dog’s body for energy. When too many carbs are consumed in a single meal, their body cannot utilize them all, and an excess of insulin is produced storing the remainder as fat. Over time, their body can become insulin resistant, causing diabetes. A low carb diet prevents this cycle and is in line with a canine’s ancestral diet of 54% protein, 45% fat and 1% carbs. While dogs can safely consume more carbs than this, we recommend limiting carbohydrates to 25% of their diet.
Perfect Dog Food Mix is proudly made in the USA. All of our ingredients are human grade and sourced in the USA as well. You won’t find any fillers, soy, gluten, wheat, rice, peas, lentils, legumes or potatoes in our food.
Yumwoof sends each batch we produce to a licensed third party food lab that performs testing on yeast, mold and bacteria levels. We always confirm our food will remain fresh for the entirety of its shelf life, leaving dogs with a fresh healthy meal, everytime!
