Fresh means you're always getting a new batch of food for your dog, made from only high quality ingredients. When we say that our food is human-grade we mean that the ingredients and processes used to make our recipes make it fit for human-consumption. In other words, you are feeding your pet something that we would feel comfortable eating too!At Barkful, we exclude all artificial preservatives, additives, and fillers that are found in commercial kibble and canned dog foods.
