Why Homemade Dog Food?

A few years ago, our adopted dogs Bea and Jax suffered from dietary and health issues that created the need for specialized foods. Through our research, we learned most dog food is mass-produced and supplemented with copious amounts of sugar, salt, and animal by-products, as well as chemicals and toxins used to increase shelf life. This didn’t fly with us.

We learned that serving standard store-bought food to our pups can have a negative impact on their health and well-being. Poor nutrition choices lead to malnutrition, allergic reactions, toxicity, obesity, shorter lifespans, and even death.

So we tossed out the canned and dried dog food and got to work cooking. We selected wholesome ingredients from our kitchen and added the right balance of supplements to create nutritious meals for our own dogs… and voilà, Barkin’ Creek Kitchen was born!

We carefully prepare each delicious recipe daily by hand using USDA quality, human-grade, meats, fruits, and vegetables. All Ingredients are locally sourced and our meals are formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for all stages of life.

Switching Dog Food

When you make the decision to switch your dog to a new food, it is necessary to gradually add the new food over a period of time to prevent stomach upset. This even includes switching between any of our recipes.

To ensure a smooth transition, we recommend the 20% Transition Rule and suggest transitioning over a period of 5 days. If your dog has a sensitive stomach, the transition may take 7-10 days (adjust percentages accordingly).
