Frequently asked questions
Have questions? We’re here to help.
Yes. Our recipes were formulated, by Integrative Veterinarian Dr. Susan Bohrer. She worked with Dr. Edward Moser, an certified veterinary nutritionist, to balance our diets to meet and exceed AAFCO’s standards for all life stages, including the growth of large breed puppies. This means Chi Dog can be fed to all dogs, even growing puppies who will reach a mature weight of over 70 pounds.
Whole foods are real foods. When you read an ingredient on a package, you should be able to see it in the food. Chi Dog uses human grade ingredients that we would eat, not feed grade ingredients as in kibble and canned dog foods. When our labels read beets, carrots, and peas, you can see, feel, and smell these ingredients in the food.
Dog’s wild cousin’s diet of raw meat may be better than kibble in that it is not processed, but there is benefit in cooking. Lightly cooked, fresh whole-food ingredients are a more gentle way to nourish your pet. This is especially true for our sick, old, and young pets; any animal who is a little delicate. Raw meat may be fine if you are a young adult and have abundant “Qi” (pronounced Chi) to digest your food. If you want to feed more gently, then cooked whole foods are ideal.
No. We have supplemented our diets with Vitamin E (tocopherol) to help maintain the freshness of our diet and support your dog’s coat.
Carbohydrates are essential to living beings and can be found in grains and plants. They are an excellent source of stored energy in our dog’s diets. Processed carbohydrates, which are in most if not all kibble (dry dog food) recipes, are poor sources of nutrition. While carbohydrates from whole foods, as found in Chi Dog diets, are excellent sources of energy. As any healthy person knows, a fresh pasta and veggie salad is healthy, while processed mac-n-cheese in a box is not
Our eco-friendly shipping boxes are lined with Green Cell Foam and packed with enough dry ice to ensure that your pet's meals; stay cool until midnight of your delivery day. If your pet’s meals arrive after this time frame or they are partially thawed, the meals are still safe to consume as long as the food is cool to the touch.
