We use only free-range, USDA-inspected, approved-for-human-consumption meats and the freshest produce, organic where possible, with real bone ground in (NOT bone meal). We do not "water down" the nutritional content of our food by packing it full of grains that your pet does not need and cannot fully utilize. Stella & Chewy's contains no preservatives, no chemicals, no dyes or colorings and no sugar or salt. Our food meets the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for all Life Stages.
