What's in the bag

Read the first five, not the front.

Ingredients on any US label are listed by weight. Wild & Natural® opens with chicken meal, chicken and chicken fat — the animal named every time. A named fat is a traceable fat; "animal fat" isn't.

Timberwolf kibble in a bowl
Dakota Legends
Straight from our team

Quality over quantity.

"Dogs and cats are carnivores. They deserve meat." — Eric, Timberwolf

That belief sets the whole line: meat-first construction, named animal proteins, and a guaranteed analysis we're happy to have compared.

Switching over

Change the bowl gradually.

Straight from the back of the bag — no guesswork.

STEP 01

Start small

Add a small amount of the new formula to the food you're feeding now.

STEP 02

Shift the ratio

Over about 7 days, increase the new formula and decrease the old.

STEP 03

Watch the bowl

A denser recipe often means less food per meal — check the feeding chart on the bag.

Real bowls, real dogs

Questions people actually ask

Where can I buy Timberwolf?

Through independent pet retailers — never big-box. Use the store locator to find the closest shop, or order a 4-lb trial bag here on the site.

How much protein is in your food?

Dog recipes run 34–40% minimum crude protein: Wild & Natural® 40%, Ocean Blue® 36%, Dakota 35%, Black Forest® 35%, Wilderness 34%. Our high-protein cat recipes run 50%. Every figure is on the guaranteed analysis panel.

Which recipe should I start with?

If your dog does well on poultry, Wild & Natural® is our highest-protein option. For a novel red meat, Black Forest® leads with venison and Dakota with buffalo. Wilderness is lamb-first. Ocean Blue® is fish-forward.

Is any recipe chicken-free?

Black Forest®, Dakota, Wilderness and Ocean Blue® all contain chicken fat, so we don't describe any of them as chicken-free. If that matters for your dog, bring us the label and we'll go through it with you.

How long does a switch take?

About 7 days. Add small amounts of the new formula to the old, increasing gradually — that instruction is printed on the bag.

Do you make cat food?

Yes. Serengeti® and Dakota Feline run 40% protein; Wild & Natural® and Ocean Blue® High-Protein run 50%.
