From Bobby, founder of DASH
You switch to fresh food. Your dog still walks away.
Human grade tells you about food safety. It doesn’t tell you whether your dog will want another bite.
- 100% grass-fed beef
- Certified organic chicken
- Sous-vide at 165°F
Meat we’d be proud to serve at our own table
Before this, I spent over 10 years helping families buy better meat at ButcherBox. One thing I learned: human grade tells you about food safety. It doesn’t tell you whether your dog will want another bite.
With DASH, we start with 100% grass-fed beef and certified organic chicken, then gently cook our meals sous vide. We call our standard Table-Grade: meat we’d be proud to serve at our own table.
Your dog won’t read the label. They get the final say at the bowl.
Fresh raised the standard
Table-Grade raises it again
Human-grade tells you food is safe for people to eat. Table-Grade goes beyond that.

Label words aren’t standards
A lot of ‘premium’ fresh food leans on label language with nothing behind it. Our protein is 100% grass-fed beef and certified organic chicken, humanely raised, with no antibiotics ever and no added hormones.
“We have tried other premium fresh human grade foods & they end up in the garbage. She really likes this one.”
Deborah, Trustpilot
Ours is slow-cooked at 165°F
We cook sous-vide at 165°F to lock in nutrients, rather than using the higher-heat processing most fresh brands use.
“I have had a problem getting him to eat his food... He sniffs it and walks away... I have given him the DASH Beef food and he scarfs it down and i looking for more.”
Janice M.
Pre- and postbiotics in every recipe
We include clinically backed pre- and postbiotics in every recipe, supporting digestion and nutrient absorption.
“I’ve tried just about every premade food out there for my big girls. Even after the adjustment period, my girls always had soft stool. This one is different.”
AP, Trustpilot

“She did like ollie's and she did like farmers dog, but she seems to really devour the DASH.”
Geraldine S., Trustpilot
Other fresh brands. Then DASH.
“I have tried Ollie, Pets Table, Farmers Dog, and Fresh Pet, and this is the only food that my dog ate without hesitation. He would normally smell the food first and walk away if he does not like it.”
“I've tried several companies of the wet food, and my small dog would always turn her nose up at all of them, until I found DASH for dogs, finally one that actually looks really good and smells really good, and my dogs agree it is really good!”
“My Yorki has been eating the same food for 10 years. We have tried other foods but she did not like them or she would throw up the food. ... We could not take the bowl away from her after it was licked clean.”
“My what used to be picky dog has eaten two weeks straight this food. Hes 15 months old and ive had to change alot of foods to get him to eat. But now wow he loves this food.”
“Our dog Cartman is extremely picky. He would starve himself rather than eat dog food. I have never seen him eat anything like DASH before.”

How is DASH different from other fresh dog food brands?
Other fresh brands stop at “human-grade” ingredients, which can include meat from animals given routine antibiotics and hormones, practices the USDA allows in human food. DASH goes further: 100% grass-fed beef and certified organic chicken, no antibiotics ever, no added hormones, and every meal is sous-vide cooked at 165°F to lock in nutrients rather than using higher-heat processing. We call this standard Table-Grade.
What if my dog doesn’t like it?
That’s what the money-back guarantee is for. If your dog doesn’t love their first box, we’ll refund it, no questions asked, no return needed.
How do I transition my dog to DASH?
We recommend a gradual transition over 7-10 days, mixing in a little more DASH each day while reducing your dog’s current food. A detailed transition guide is included with your first box.
Is this food nutritionally complete?
Yes. All recipes are vet-formulated and tested to meet AAFCO standards for complete and balanced nutrition. Safe for daily feeding as your dog’s sole diet.
How much does DASH cost?
Plans start as low as $4 per day depending on your dog’s size and needs. Small dogs (10-15 lbs) start at $4/day, medium dogs (15-25 lbs) start at $6/day, and large dogs (55-75 lbs) start at $12/day. Take our 2-minute quiz to see your dog’s exact pricing and customized meal plan.
Can I cancel or pause my subscription anytime?
Absolutely. Cancel or pause anytime with one click in your account. You’re also free to adjust portions, change recipes, or modify delivery frequency whenever needed.
