Why Freeze-Dried Raw?

Most commercial pet food is cooked at high temperatures — which can destroy 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?

Turkey, Beef, Salmon, Duck, Beef Liver, Turkey Liver, Turkey Heart, Flaxseed, Sweet Potato, Egg, Pea Flour, Apple, Blueberry, Carrot, Cranberry, Pumpkin Seed, Spinach, Dried Kelp, Ginger, Salt, Sunflower Seed, Broccoli, Kale, Mixed Tocopherols (natural preservative)

What if Nature’s Blend doesn’t work for my dog? Is there a guarantee?

Absolutely. As a veterinarian, I take canine nutrition very seriously. So if you don’t see a noticeable improvement in your dog’s health and happiness, you can send back the unused portion of Nature’s Blend (or the empty bags) any time within 90 days and I’ll return your purchase price.

Where do I buy Nature's Blend?

Right here on our website! It’s the best place to stock up on your dog’s food or subscribe to automatic monthly shipments.

Or if you prefer, you can also shop in stores! Nature’s Blend is now available in more than 3,000 retail stores in the US. Use our store locator to find a store in your local area.

  1. 5 out of 5 Finally!

    Jill Hall

    From day one, Abby (18 month old Morkie) dug right in and even licked outside of bowl. Since then everyday she steps right up and eats and then wants her walk. Potty time is very regular now. Her coat is soft and shiny and eyes clear and bright. Only one downside, she’s over the top full of energy. I can barely keep up with her. But if that’s the worst thing out of this experience then all is good. Thank you!

    My Bully has been on this food for four weeks now. Great food. Has helped my English Bully with her hair coat, a lot less shedding, skin is clear of bumps and she has more energy at eight years old than she has in a while. She has no problem cleaning her food bowl out now. Thanks for developing this food.

    I prepared their food and they never once stopped until their bowls were emptied. They are completely satisfied and they are not looking for something else. My picky eater, came right to the kitchen when I prepared it the second time.

  10. 5 out of 5 Awesome Dog Food

    Chris Sterling

    My dog jumps for joy every time when it’s feeding time. Never see him that excited…and we tried many different brands. However, I just wanted to say thanks for inventing such an amazing recipe.

  11. 5 out of 5 NO MORE PICKY EATER

    Chris

    My dog is very picky about dry dog food. I haven’t found one that she really like. I decided to give Dr. Marty’s a try and I’m on the 4th bag and she eats every bite. She had been having trouble with her anal glands not releasing properly and now I haven’t noticed her scooting across the floor or the smell that went along with her scooting process. I finally found a food other than canned that she likes.

  13. 5 out of 5 The Positive Effect was Immediate

    Cyndi Pemberton

    I have two Chihuahuas (sisters) that are rescues. They are older pups and were very high strung on good days and wound way too tight on bad days. They acted like they were starving all the time, frantic eating, weight gain and skin problems. Refusing to eat no matter what dog food I got them for days at a time. Within a couple of feedings they completely changed. They are at a healthy weight, the skin issues are gone, allergies cleared up, their coats are so glossy and shiny! They are calm and much happier. There has been no refusal to eat since they started on this food. Their forever-home is truly theirs now and they really needed it. Thank you for helping me show them what love, joy, comfort and safety means!

  15. 5 out of 5 Just by Chance

    Jill

    I was researching dog food because my dog Chance is extremely picky and “just by chance”, I stumbled across your brand. I was impressed by all the great ingredients in it and decided to give it a try. Chance loves the food and I no longer have to coax him to eat. He licks the bowl clean and wants more. Thank you Dr. Marty for this wonderful product. Also, no more messy cleanup outside. His digestive problems have cleared right up. I wish I could afford to feed all four of my dogs this food.
