Our Recipes

Have you ever wondered what really is in your dog food? What is the difference between byproducts and a protein meal?  At Pets 1st we offer premium quality ingredients that are mostly sourced within 100 miles of the manufacturing plant or North American sourced with the exception of Lamb which is imported in from New Zealand. We have no ingredients sourced out of China, nor do we produce any recipe using byproducts. Byproducts are most commonly know as what is left over after the intended product has been made. In the case of animal feeds, including pet foods, it’s often the excess materials left over after processing human foods.

Quality doesn’t just come in our ingredients, but also in the process of our manufacturing. Earth Options by Pets1st recipes are made in small batches with exceptional ingredients like Chicken, Lamb, and Salmon.  Each batch is quality tested before it is packaged and date stamped.  Fresh is ALWAYS best. We are ALWAYS very diligent about freshness. That is why we source only the best and get your order out quickly and efficiently.

The owners of Pets 1st know first hand how well their puppies and dogs do on Earth Options. Over the past several years these breeders have been feeding their dogs Earth Options pet food to their dogs and puppies from 3.5 weeks of age to seniors.

Earth Options by Pets 1st recipes are proven to help all our furry families thrive into their senior years. We know you want the best for your family. Earth Options Grain Free and Limited Ingredient Diets provide the balanced nutrition that keeps our furry families HEALTHY in an all-natural way.

Our recipes are packed in UV resistant packages that help keep our recipes fresh. WE offer a unique ‘recycle program’ so our bags stay out of landfills. As we continue to come up with unique ways to give back, this is yet another one of those initiatives that no other dog food company offers. We not only care about the quality of our food, but we care about protecting our environment. We hope you will join us in giving back.

We Work in Unique Ways

Our Passion

Our real passion is the furry families we take care of as customers. We recognize that we are small but that makes us big. We devised a unique plan of action very early in our almost 30 years existence. We found that not every food is for every dog. Dogs are much like us there were always nutritional nuances that we could navigate successfully throughout a pet’s life. Instead of developing 40 different foods that would satisfy individual breeds or sensitive stomachs or goopy ears or an overweight issue we developed a stable of recipes that we could blend to provide you with a ‘custom pet food solution’ to any or at least most issues that arise throughout the life of your furry family. It’s really quite a novel to explain so here is a simple description.

If your dog has an issue we will work with you at using a combination of our healthy pet food recipes to solve that issue. In some cases we delve into the environment that your pet lives in. We also ask about outside factors other than diet. If we can’t resolve an issue then we will recommend a different course of action that will hopefully help you and your furry companion live a healthy life. We have found that fresh nutritious pet food offered in proper amounts helps avoid obesity and a good exercise regime for both you and your pet are instrumental in the health and well being of your furry family. We are here to provide solutions, answers and ultimately peace of mind.
