Premium All-Natural Pet Foods and Treats
Dr. Tim's offers honest, nutritionally sound kibble, wet foods, dietary supplements and freeze-dried treats designed for every life stage. The high-quality ingredients include low-ash protein along with the right blend of carbohydrates, fats and fibers to allow your pet to lead a healthy life.
Foods Made to Match Your Pet
When shopping for Dr. Tim's pet foods, you'll notice the labeling indicates an activity level. That's because they're made to complement your pet's lifestyle, with ideal ratios of protein, fat, carbohydrates and fibers to help her thrive. You'll find recipes that are specially formulated for active pets, low-key pets, extreme athletes and those in need of weight management.
ACTIVE: This food is designed for the sporting dog that's active more days than not—dogs who hunt or jog every day, herding dogs, police dogs and the like. It's made for maximum digestion, an important consideration for these dogs that's often overlooked. Protein types and levels, fat types and levels, and fiber sources are formulated to maximize performance and recovery.
CASUAL LIFESTYLE: This is a diet intended for the dog who lives a normal lifestyle—sleeping on the couch, running around the backyard or going on car rides, walks or hikes and basically just living the good life. The only regular exercise she might get is tail wagging when she sees you at the end of the day, or some loving nose nudges.
EXTREME ATHLETES: This food is for dogs who are serious about working nearly every day for long periods of time, such as sled dogs and dogs who hunt most days of the season. It's extremely high in fat, high in protein and low in carbs, with the highest levels of essential omega-3 fatty acids and loads of antioxidants. Performance, endurance and recovery are all enhanced.
WEIGHT MANAGEMENT: This diet is intended for the dog who has put on some extra weight. High protein allows your overweight dog to be more active, and moderate fat allows her to feel satiated so she doesn't beg—an essential part of the equation. The omega-3 and antioxidant profiles help reduce the inflammatory stress that's prevalent in an overweight dog, too.
Treats That Deliver
Dr. Tim's freeze-dried treats are formulated for both cats and dogs—perfect for multipet households. They're made from 100% real, USDA-inspected meats from Wisconsin. And since they're freeze-dried, you can give your pet all the nutrition and flavor of raw meat without any of the mess or inconvenience.
Top It Off With Nutrition
Dr. Tim's Flavor Booster is made of 100% real, USDA-inspected beef liver powder from Wisconsin that is freeze-dried to maintain more nutrients. It's perfect for use as a food topper to encourage pets to eat and enjoy their meals, which makes it a great choice for finicky dogs or those who are ill or tired of the same formula.
About Dr. Tim's
As a veterinarian and accomplished musher, Dr. Tim Hunt understood his dogs' need for a food that promotes stamina, endurance and performance through proper digestion. Armed with a cement mixer, a cache of ideas, and an aversion for other diets on the market, Dr. Tim took to his Michigan garage on a mission to formulate a food that replicated a natural, wild diet for his Alaskan Huskies. Today, Dr. Tim's focus has since expanded to bring an honest, nutritionally sound food—sourced only from North America's highest quality ingredients—to every dog.

When we got our first dog we did all the research on top quality dog foods. I went through many on the list. Too expensive. Too hard to find. Too gimmicky. When we found Dr. Tim's it was just right! It's good to know my husky has something better than even some of the more expensive foods. She's always been on the smaller side, but she zooms like the best of them and has a great coat with this food. Even better, she hasn't gotten tired of this food like huskies are known to do. But, I do plan on mixing in the Active dog dr. Tim's food to make sure she stays happy.

My dog is getting older, and he seemed to have grown tired of the food I had been feeding him for several years. It was a good, high-quality food that I'd researched pretty intensely before switching him to it and off the cheap, grocery-store brand the breeder had been feeding him as a puppy when I bought him, and he'd never had any problems eating it before, but suddenly he was refusing to eat. I took him to the vet to see if there was a medical reason he wasn't eating, but they cleared him as perfectly healthy if a little underweight. He's only 8 lbs when healthy, so a little underweight means he'd lost a pound and was showing a few ribs, but I was concerned. A pound for him was 1/8th his body My dog is getting older, and he seemed to have grown tired of the food I had been feeding him for several years.

I started researching dog food brands again and subscribed to a website focused on dog food comparisons and recommending foods with high-quality ingredients with high product and quality-control standards. Dr. Tim's was on their list of top recommended foods for a budget-conscious consumer. I decided to buy this and another Dr. Tim's grain-free food and have my dog try them. After an initial honeymoon period where my dog was excited to try something new, it seems this food and the other we tried are getting somewhat of a better reception than his old food. Instead of eating one meal every other day after much prodding and pleading and only after I'd put mixed human food with his dog food, he's back to eating at least one meal a day on his own. It's still not ideal; I'd like him to eat both meals every day and be happy to do it like he used to, but at least this is better. I'm also satisfied that the food is good quality and the company that makes it is reputable with high quality standards, which is important to me. … more

I can’t not believe that my super picky GSD, who will not eat cheese, lunch meat, any raw meat or anything loves this dog food! I have two dogs and separate their dog food. Each dog will not eat the others food all day... The other bowl can be full all day and only that dog will eat it. My GSD not only eats his food asap but will eat our other dogs food if we aren’t watching. This has never happened in the 7 years we have owned him. My mom was here for a visit and was shocked as well. THANK YOU! (BTW, my dogs have turned down ever quality dog food out there, Merricks, Zignature, you name it!)

After doing my research, we decided to try Dr. Tim's. Great food and our puppy likes it a lot. This is also made by our vet in town so it's nice to be able to support a local small town company.

My 8 month old lab puppy enjoys eating any food or even non foods! He seems to be doing fine on this food. Since it has 3 or 4 kinds of fish, I am concerned that it might be more fish than chicken.Also, for an all stages food the feeding instructions for puppies are very vague. The price has also risen each of the last three times I ordered.

I did my research and this is one of the top brands i wanted my pup to try. After Acana has the lawsuit I was trying to find a new one for my husky. He’s usually not picky with his food. He ate on the first day. But after that he doesn’t like it. I try to put it in his mouth and he spits it out. I wished he liked it. I ordered 40lbs. -_- I’m giving to my friends to try. He just doesn’t touch it. I wish he would have liked it. Now on the prowl for a different brand again

Our dogs seem to love anything by Dr Tim but this one has them running around the table in pure joy before they eat. We have three huskies and their coats are glossy and soft, they eat their food with gusto, and their poops are healthy and normal. Our dogs range in age from 6 to 9 and all maintain healthy weights. Their energy levels are that of pups. We love and trust Dr Tim's food. I even had a question about the food and got an email answer from Dr Tim himself!

My 3 senior standard poodles seem to like it so far. I was feeding Taste of the Wild and they all stopped eating it recently so after research I narrowed it down to Dr. Tims, Fromm or Origen. The only thing I have noticed is that one of the poodles has recently had some smelly farts. There is less poop in the yard to pick up though - and it has only been about 3 weeks so far on this food but so far so good.

We have a 6 month old labradoodle. The breeder had him on TOTW, so we originally continued him on that. He didn’t eat well, was under weight and had loose stools. We tried a couple other high end foods, but he always had loose stools and bad gas. We switched to Dr Tim’s and by the end of day 3, solid stools and no gas! He eats it all at each feeding and seems to like it.
