Why Freeze-Dried Raw?
Most commercial pet food is cooked at high temperatures — which destroys many of the nutrients.
Dr. Marty’s is gently freeze-dried. This helps protect the nutrients that help keep your pet trim, active, healthy and happy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Nature’s Blend — Essential Wellness and some other store-bought dog foods?
Nature’s Blend is:
- 81% REAL premium cuts of meat… because a high-protein diet can support your dog’s active playtime, vital organs, and healthy lifespan.
- FREE from artificial preservatives and synthetic vitamins and mineral powders… We naturally keep our food fresh — that way, your dog can easily absorb the nutrients from REAL meat, veggies, fruits, and seeds.
- Minimally processed, not blasted with high heat… We freeze-dry our food so it’s full of nutrients, bursting with savory flavor, and has a fresh, irresistible texture.
Is grain-free food ok for dogs?
Dogs need a diet rich in taurine, an amino acid found only in meat, to thrive.1
However many commercial foods are packed with ingredients like tapioca and white potatoes. These ingredients contain very little taurine.2
That’s why the first five ingredients in Nature’s Blend are premium cuts of real turkey, beef, salmon, duck, and organ meat. This supports your dog’s healthy heart and youthful vitality.
Of course, it’s always a good idea to talk to your veterinarian before starting your dog on a new diet.
Why is this formula freeze-dried?
Most dog food companies cook their food at high temperatures, which can destroy many of the nutrients.
Instead, we gently freeze-dry Nature’s Blend — Essential Wellness to help protect the nutrients your dog needs and the delicious flavor they love.
Does each dog breed need a different dog food?
Nope! We designed this formula to help dogs of all breeds live a long, healthy, happy life.
How do I serve Nature’s Blend — Essential Wellness to my dog?
If your dog likes dry food, Nature’s Blend is ready for them to enjoy the moment you scoop it from the bag.
But if your dog prefers wet food, it’s easy to prepare. Just combine 2 parts Nature’s Blend with 1 part water. Then let the food sit for 3 minutes before mixing it up and serving it to your eager pup.
Do I need to refrigerate Dr. Marty Nature’s Blend — Essential Wellness?
There’s no refrigeration necessary! Because Nature’s Blend is freeze-dried, a bag will keep for up to 3 months in the pantry after it’s been opened, so there’s no need to make space in the fridge.
Not to mention, the bags are extremely lightweight and they zip to seal, so they’re easy to store (and there’s no need for bulky food containers.)
What is the complete ingredient list for Nature’s Blend?
