How It Works

Homemade Feeding In 3 Simple Steps.

1. Choose a recipe

Pick from complete and balanced recipes designed for healthy adult dogs.

2. Go Shopping

Follow your recipe’s shopping list so you know exactly what to buy before you cook.

3. Cook and Serve

Prepare your dog’s meals at home with clear instructions, accurate portions, and no guesswork.

Why DAFY Is Different

Homemade food can look healthy and still be incomplete.

A bowl of meat, vegetables and rice can look fresh and healthy, but that does not mean it provides everything your dog needs long term.

Dogs need nutrients in the right amounts, including calcium, phosphorus, essential fatty acids, vitamins and trace minerals.

That is where 95% of homemade dog recipes fall short.

Supplements in our recipes:

V-Integra

The vitamin and mineral blend used to balance the recipe

Fish oil

Provides EPA and DHA, important omega-3 fatty acids.

Plant oil

Provides linoleic acid, an essential fatty acid for dogs.

Testimonials

My baby girl is a 3 year old goldendoodle. She had been having intermittent loose stools. Gaia was kind enough to use her formulating technology and expertise to reconstruct my diet. We are on about week 3 with the new food with much improvement. Gaia has been instrumental in our journey.

I just wanted you to know that I had Stewart in for a complete blood panel this week and his results were excellent! This makes me so happy, so I wanted to thank you for your expertise with his recipes. Stewart and I truly appreciate you.
