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.

Trusted, All-Natural Ingredients
Blackwood recipes contain no artificial flavors or colors and are purposely formulated with natural ingredients from handpicked suppliers. Check out the health benefits of these featured ingredients from Blackwood's premium dog foods:

BEETS
Edible root vegetables that provide phytonutrients and are high in immunity-boosting vitamin C, iron for healthy blood cells and magnesium for bone health.

Not As Advertised
By DogMom on Mar 24, 2021
I purchased this food because the ingredient list on Chewy showed that it didn't have peas ( one of the many ingredients that the FDA is recommending against for now), and because it was fairly priced. The bag's ingredient list, however, showed that it DID contain peas. Also the guaranteed analysis list on the bag was considerably shorter than that shown on Chewy. Now I see that the price has nearly doubled. Really?!?

Price raised
By Cathy on Mar 31, 2021
I'm on the autoship and have been getting this a few months now for my dogs, the food isn't bad my dogs love it.. my issue is that they doubled the price but they don't even send you a email letting you know that.. or a alert I'm glad I saw it before I was charged double.. guess it's back to their old dog food.

My picky eater loves this
By Halu10 on Mar 13, 2021
Usually my dog slows down to clean his bowl for his new food but not this one. Every time I reach to the bag, he runs towards to his bowl. I usually have to switch his food after each bag he finishes. I might order this again. Will see.

Differently Interesting
By BlaundNordic on Jan 16, 2021 top1000Contributor
My pups are getting older and not bounding around as much, altho outside the same hiking and working together, they are laying down a ton more vs running and playing like they used to, thus, their ribs aren't as noticeable, HehHeh. So, ordered some "slimming" selection of kibble, and boys are happy. I like the size of the kibble, fits better in the toys the boys have to earn/work out their meal, it's slightly bigger than small kibble nuggets. And yep, in 14 days, can see the slimming is working.

Best of the Best
By Comeauxfam on Dec 30, 2020
I have two dogs, a Pit and a Heeler. I can honestly say this is some of the best food I’ve given them. Hands down will trump Solid Gold or Blue Buffalo. The quality and care has been put into this. If you love your pet and want the best for them, I suggest you feed them this.

Happy all around

Something new
By DOZER on Dec 4, 2020
My Dog is a bottomless pit that will eat anything. He can devour his 2 cups of food in under 5 seconds. Due to a food allergy with my other dog, I had to switch his food. Dozer eats this with no problem and even licks the bowl and sniffs the food bucket for morsels. I would say he likes it.
