Storage Instructions

Store in the freezer, thaw one day before feeding in the refrigerator. Once opened, store the leftovers in the original packaging or in a food safe container in the fridge. 

If food is still cold to touch at meal time, it is optional to leave it out at room temperature or heat it up in your microwave before feeding. Or try both ways to see what your pup loves most!

Once opened, consume within 5 days.

Transition Guide

Transition slowly over a period of 10 days, and especially slow if your dog is not used to fresh foods.

Day 1-3: Replace current food with 25% of Root & Tail food

Day 4-6: Increase to 50-75% of Root & Tail food

Day 7-10: Increase to 75% and completely replace current food at the end.

If at anytime during the transition, your dog experiences loose or soft stool, go back to the previous stage for 2 more days.

Testimonials

  • ★★★★★
    It smelt good enough to eat myself! The texture was great, mixed easily into his kibble. He's usually a grazer but now he eats everything in his bowl.
    Shelly, Enzo's Mom
  • ★★★★★
    Nice texture, thaws well, easy to portion. Would work well in a squeeze tube reward system too!
    Aleesia, Mom to 4 dogs
  • ★★★★★
    Tim LOVES his Sensitive Skin & Tummy food. Being a small dog, his meal sizes are so tiny when he is fed kibble, he is much more satisfied with these fresh cooked foods. And our mastiff Bruce literally jumps for joy (and shakes the house!) when he sees Root & Tail in his bowl!
    Sarah, Tim & Bruce's Mom

    My dog Yuki loves it! I just mixed some to her regular food and it's the first thing she eats.

FAQ

Find the most frequently asked questions below.

  • Food allergies are predominantly due to protein-rich ingredients, the most common being beef, dairy, chicken and eggs. Plant-based diets with novel proteins like lupini beans and oyster mushrooms like Root & Tail Sensitive Skin & Tummy Recipe can be excellent to avoid these common allergens. 

    Antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables also provide active anti-allergenic benefit, meaning plant-based diets like these are not only hypoallergenic, but also beneficial for sensitive dogs.

  • Yes, this recipe is formulated to meet and exceed the nutritional levels established by AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for dogs of All Life Stages including growth of large size dogs (70lbs or more as an adult).

  • Novel proteins are proteins that are not common, meaning that dogs are less likely to develop an adverse reaction to them. In this recipe, we use Lupini Beans and Oyster Mushroom Protein which are highly nutritious sources of proteins (that are also taking the human world by storm - so you should check them out as well).

  • Though not definitive evidence, studies have determined that owners of dogs fed plant-based diets report better health and longer lives (up to 18 months) than dogs fed conventional meat-based diets. We will be sharing more about this exciting research in our blog!
