right recipe.
Every dog recipe leads with a named animal protein and includes named fish. Pick the one that fits your dog — each opens its full ingredient story.
Your dog never stopped
being a carnivore.
Timberwolf has built meat-first recipes since 1996. A named animal protein leads every bag, the fat is named too, and the guaranteed analysis is printed where you can check it against anything else on the shelf.
See the recipes
Read the label,
not the front.
Pet food labelling follows rules most shoppers have never been shown. Three worth knowing before you compare any two bags.
“Animal fat”
An unnamed fat can come from any species. Ours is named on the panel — chicken fat, preserved with tocopherols.
“Made with ___”
Under AAFCO’s “with” rule, an ingredient named on the front of the bag can legally be as little as 3% of the food.
“___ Flavor”
The flavor rule asks only that the flavor be detectable — not that the ingredient be present in any particular amount.
These are AAFCO labelling rules that apply to every brand, ours included. We list them so you can read any panel — not as a claim about a competitor.
Real, named,
meat-first food.
Three ways to start, depending on whether you want to try it first or you already know what your dog eats.

Simpler for you.
No subscription, no auto-ship, no plan to configure. Buy a bag when you need a bag.
How the switch works
Straight from the back of the bag — no guesswork.
Start small
Add small amounts of Timberwolf to the food you’re feeding now.
Shift the ratio
Over about 7 days, increase Timberwolf and decrease the old food.
Watch the bowl
A denser recipe often means less food per meal. Check the chart on the bag.
What’s on the panel
Everything we say is
printed on the bag.
- A named animal protein, first
- Named fish in every dog recipe
- A named fat, not “animal fat”
- Guaranteed analysis on every bag
Straight from our team
“Dogs and cats are carnivores. They deserve meat.”
Eric, Timberwolf
“We believe in quality over quantity of our food.”
Eric, Timberwolf
“I break it down on cost per day — not cost per bag.”
Eric, Timberwolf
“We can replace four cups of food with three cups of ours.”
Eric, Timberwolf
Thirty years of
the same idea.
Timberwolf has made high-protein, meat-first food since 1996, and has never sold it through big-box stores.

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%.
