Time-Honored Family Tradition
Handcrafting premium pet food in small batches is a long-standing Blackwood tradition. For three generations, they've created nutritious, flavorful recipes at their family owned and operated facility in Ohio. Their commitment to tradition and quality starts with choosing the right ingredients. That's why they've spent years building lasting relationships with suppliers they trust and know on a first-name basis.


Slow Cooked for Better Nutrition
Blackwood has been perfecting their process of slow cooking for over 20 years to create an appetizing and more digestible pet food. This method leaves valuable proteins, vitamins and minerals intact, making them more bio-available. It helps maximize useable energy, which leads to increased stamina and nutrient uptake, better immune system response and—best of all—less stool.
Promotes Healthy Coats and Tummies
Blackwood recipes are both appetizing and gentle on the stomach. That's because they've included prebiotics and probiotics to ease digestion and help the body absorb nutrients. All formulas except for the 1000 Everyday Diet and 2000 Active Diet are free of fillers like corn, wheat and soy that can cause skin allergies or irritate sensitive tummies. And they're packed with omega fatty acids from natural sources for superior skin health and a lustrous coat.


Quality Guaranteed in Every Bowl
Blackwood takes care in every step of preparation. They use only the finest all-natural ingredients that contribute to your pet's healthy lifestyle, which means no artificial flavors or colors. And because they own their own facility, Blackwood can ensure the integrity of their diets. All products undergo 360-degree quality control and are tested before they're even shipped, and all dry food is made right here in the USA.
Add in a Performance Mix for Active Dogs
Blackwood's ExPro Total Diet Supplement is made with multiple protein sources that provide essential amino acids plus pre- and probiotics to aid digestion. This recipe combines three meat meals for a concentrated source of rich animal protein. ExPro is made to complement a performance or active diet with 33% protein, 23% fat and omega-3 for a lustrous coat. It can be easily added to your dog's diet for extra energy and endurance.

Great all life stage food
By FD57 on Dec 23, 2019
I have a rottweiler puppy and 2 mixed adults. All 3 did fantastic with this. Great muscle tone, loved eating it, solid stools, and great coats. It's hard to keep weight on my rottweiler puppy and this worked very well. I fed 2 bags of this formula and am currently feeding the Blackwood puppy formula to my rottweiler.

15+ year Fan
By FCRmom on Oct 9, 2019
Began feeding Blackwood 2000 in 2004 when it was used by the breeder from whom we adopted our Flat-Coated Retriever. We have fed it since then to all of our Flat-Coated males. We have shown our dogs in conformation and worked them in the field. They have had beautiful coats and proper energy levels for their active lives. Plus, our dogs have loved the food. We also have found the smaller kibble size of the 2000 to be very beneficial, especially for our current younger male, because it is more easily digested.

Excellent products!
By EastGSD on Aug 1, 2016
I've been a huge fan of Blackwood products for years. After the sale to the actual manufacturer prices went way up, reducing one of the great features of the product; affordable quality. I'm very pleased to see prices, through Chewy, have stabilized at a reasonable price yet again. So excited for my next autoship! Feeding Dr Tim's currently, I'm satisfied with it but it's 20 dollars more per bag. I love any product manufactured at Ohio Pet Foods!
