This has been a life saver for me and my Manx Calico. I’m so pleased to know that it is made in America for America Pets! My pet is very finicky and have a difficult time to get food that is quality, healthy, avoiding all of the “junk” that most commercial brands like to put on food for consumers that prefer wholesome food for their pets and not dry food it can be a real challenge. Thanks to Stellas & Chewy’s my pet has been able to put back some weight.

I’m not sure how a company that is largely freeze dried raw has a low rating for manufacturing… is freeze drying a risk for contamination? My puppy definitely loves freeze dried raw.

Hi Ryan,
Freeze drying is among the safest types of pet food

Love this brand. I am a pet nutritionist and have worked in the field for many years through independent pet partners. This was my go to food for customers, especially in compared to ProPlan. I know the overall score on here is higher for proPlan but that’s because it’s been pushed by so many vets. And most vets don’t have nutritional training.
