Archetype is the original raw dog and cat food diet from Wysong, and emulates the food canines and felines eat in the wild – the diet they are genetically programmed for. Wysong raw dog & cat food products are manufactured with a proprietary TNT (True Non-Thermal) technology, and are the safest, most genetically appropriate raw pet foods on the market. Archetype, first and foremost, is not heated above 118 degrees Fahrenheit – a True Non-Thermal freeze-dried raw product! These products are designed to achieve optimal nutrition that is beyond minimal regulatory standards for so-called “100% complete and balanced” diets.

Archetype may be fed dry or soaked in water for 10 - 15 minutes. Excess moistened food should be refrigerated for the next feeding or discarded. Fro maximum health benefit, rotate Archetype with fresh foods and other Wysong Diets.
Always keep fresh, pure water available (enhanced with Wysong WellSpring water rejuvenator) and offer plenty of fresh air, sunshine, exercise, and big doses of your tender loving care.
Keep tightly sealed, and store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
To avoid digestive disturbances, mix with the present diet beginning at about 10% and then gradually increase proportions.
My cat digests best with a freeze dried raw diet. Once upon a time I got "Primal" brand quail and it was my cat's favorite but when the pandemic hit it was permanently discontinued. As soon as I saw Wysong's quail available on Chewy I jumped on it and my cat loves it! I hope this one doesn't suddenly disappear on me too.
I love the ingredients in this food other than the high Taurine level, hence I am giving it a 4 star review. Cats need higher Taurine levels than dogs and this would be a fabulous food for them, my dog didn't feel well a few days after starting on this food. Taurine is the third ingredient in this food, which is way too much for dogs. So if you are feeding this to your dog, just be aware of this.
My 12 yr old cat was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism last year. After extensive research I put him on Wysong Epigen 90 dry food as well as the Archetype freeze dried food. He is thriving. I add the different flavors to his wet food for added bulk and nutrition. The quail isn't his favorite flavor but I absolutely recommend the product.
Well liked by cats and dog. I like to use this in a food rotation with raw diet. Dog loves it. Cats are back and forth, some days they eat it right away, others they may be picky. Consistency is made up of some chunks and the rest is shreds and powdery.
I put this on top of her wet food and she had great ph results and also ate everything underneath it even though it was not her favorite wet food.
I had difficulty finding kitty’s preferred quail cookie and ordered this pricey swap as the ingredients are the same. She’s not pleased.
She will eat the chicken but wouldn't even try the quail.
My 9 year old cat recently decided she didn't like most of her usual favorites. She gobbles this right up! I give it to her as a treat or as a topper for her canned foods and if nothing else she will eat up all this food without question!
I got four cats and three of them won’t touch this, dehydrated or rehydrated. Doesn’t mean it’s a bad product- a friends dog ate a dehydrated piece as a treat and looked delighted.
Very inconsistent product...after feeding this product for several month, I had all of my four cats refuse to eat the latest batch. I called to ask for a replacement...was told on the phone that Wysong would be sending me one - rep even took my address down. Several days later I received an email saying that since no one else complained, Wysong was unwilling to do anything for me. Thumbs down all around.
