Thinking of switching your dog from kibble to fresh food?
It doesn’t have to be all-or-nothing — or overwhelming.
Start slow: begin by mixing Dozers Dinner Blends into their usual meals over the course of about a week.
Some pet parents are all-in, others do a half-and-half approach. Both can work beautifully — just go at your dog’s pace.

As your pup adjusts, the benefits start to show. You’ll likely see a shinier coat, cleaner teeth, smaller and less smelly poops, steady energy, and an all-around happier dog. That’s the power of feeding what their bodies were designed for — fresh, species-appropriate food full of real nourishment.

Every dog is different, so watch how they respond, trust your instincts, and enjoy the journey. You’re doing something amazing for your dog’s health and happiness — one bowl at a time. 🐶✨

NEW for Cats (but dogs love it too!) 🐾🦘🦌

We’ve created a raw meal blend just for your feline carnivores—using the Prey Model Raw (PMR) approach to support what cats are biologically built to eat.

Made in small batches at Dozer & Co., using only whole, species-appropriate ingredients:

✔️ Kangaroo or Venison muscle meat – lean, gamey, and loved by cats
✔️ Beef heart – naturally rich in taurine, critical for cat vision, heart & brain health
✔️ Liver + kidney – nutrient-dense organs for essential vitamins and minerals
✔️ Crushed chicken frames – finely ground bone for calcium and joint support

💡 Did you know?
Cats must get taurine from their food—unlike dogs, they can't make it themselves. Without it, they risk vision loss, heart disease, and more. That’s why we’ve made sure this blend supports their true needs.

🐶 And yes—dogs can absolutely enjoy this too! A lean, nutrient-rich option, especially great for variety or sensitive tummies.

Not quite ready to go raw? That’s totally okay!

Many pet parents feel more comfortable starting with cooked food — and we’ve got you covered. Our Boneless Blends are specially designed to be safely cooked or even lightly seared.

They’re still made with the same fresh, human-grade ingredients you trust — just with more flexibility in how you feed. Cooking can be a great option for senior dogs or those with sensitive tummies, too. 🐶💛

Just a heads-up: since it’s missing raw bone, the meal is no longer complete and balanced on its own. But don’t worry — you can easily round it out with options like:
🦴 Raw meaty bones on the side
💊 Supplements we carry in-store
🍲 Fresh-made bone broth

Whether raw, cooked, or somewhere in between, we’re here to help you feed fresh with confidence. 🙌

When Dozer was a puppy we made the switch to raw & the difference was night and day. His coat became glossier, his digestion improved, his energy soared, and backyard clean-ups? Let’s just say they got a whole lot easier.

At Dozer & Co., we’ve seen firsthand how powerful fresh feeding can be — and we’ve crafted our specialty blends to deliver those same results for your dog.

Our recipes are packed with real, whole ingredients that are free from preservatives and fillers that often cause itching, ear infections, and digestive issues.
Whether it’s better digestion, brighter eyes, or reduced sensitivities, the transformation is real — and it can start in just a few weeks.

Ready to see the Dozer difference? Try one of our custom raw blends today and give your dog the fresh start they deserve.

The Truth About "Pet Grade" vs. Human Grade Food for Pets 🐶🐾

Most commercial pet foods use "pet grade" ingredients — a term that allows for meat by-products, fillers, and substances deemed unfit for human consumption.

At our store, we do things differently.

💯 We use human-grade ingredients, which means every bite is made from the same quality meat you'd eat — just carefully formulated to meet your pet’s nutritional needs. No rendered meats. No hidden chemicals. Just real, clean, species-appropriate food.

👉 Why does it matter?
Human-grade food is produced under stricter safety and sanitation standards, unlike most pet-grade products that follow only minimal feed-grade guidelines (AAFCO standards allow for lower-quality sourcing).

Because your pet is family — and family deserves the best.

New Product - Whole Quail

Quail, often overlooked in pet food, is a highly nutritious option for dogs that can benefit from a more varied, protein-rich diet. Whole quail provides an excellent source of lean protein, essential fatty acids, and important vitamins and minerals like B-vitamins and iron.

Feeding your dog whole quail helps mimic their natural prey-based diet, supporting muscle growth, energy levels, and overall health. It's also a great choice for dogs with food sensitivities, as quail is often less likely to trigger allergies compared to more common proteins like chicken or beef.

Key Benefits of Whole Quail for Dogs:

High in lean protein, perfect for muscle maintenance
Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, promoting a healthy coat and skin
Packed with essential vitamins (B12, Niacin) and minerals (iron, phosphorus)
Hypoallergenic alternative for sensitive dogs
Supports joint health with natural cartilage and bones

Treat your dog to the goodness of whole quail and give them the nutrition they deserve!

Wow, how emotional is this picture, firefighters were amazing.

Photos you can feel.

The intense fire surprised Mr. Mario Alberto, who is deaf man, in the middle of the night. His humble house and his vehicle were on fire, but his only concern was his best friend, Gordo, who was still inside him. Desperate, he even tried to put out the fire with a hose but the flames were destroying everything, including his hopes of finding his dog alive.

He kept pointing out to the firefighters that nothing mattered more than his pet and when he thought he would never see him again, suddenly in the midst of the raging flames, one of them came out with his pet.
