A perfect blend of two less common protein sources. Our Essentials Formula Turkey & Bison has a high meat content and boasts an ideal balance of protein and fat, with a calcium to phosphorus ratio of 1.4:1 and 3.6 grams of calcium per 1000 calories, making this an ideal meal for both puppies and adult dogs. 

Bison is naturally leaner than beef and is high in beta carotene. Bison heart is a lean and highly nutritious muscle meat, high in protein, iron, zinc, and selenium. Bison has a complete amino acid profile, meaning it provides all the amino acids your dog needs. Bison liver and kidney provide vitamin A, D, riboflavin, thiamine, niacin, B6, B12, pantothenic acid, iron, zinc, and taurine. Turkey is high in selenium, vitamin B3 and B6, and is an excellent source of protein. Turkey is also a great source of tryptophan, which produces serotonin and plays an important role in strengthening the immune system. A fully ground meal containing all the essential components of a raw diet and nothing else.

Uh, My Dog Says "Yum"?

Our girl always licks her bowl clean, so I presume she likes her bison. We like to add a variety of protein to her diet while avoiding chicken. It would be nice if it wasn't ground to mush, but I understand there is certain criteria to be met in processing.

I have used BacktoBasic since Coco was a puppy and she has enjoyed all your complete meals. She has never had any allergies and I contribute this on your well formulated meals. Coco’s second meal of the day is a dehydrated raw food kibble made in Quebec.

Great Product!

Since my girl can't have beef or chicken the Turkey & Bison mix is the perfect alternative! My baby loves every bite of it! The meat is fresh and nutritious and the team very supportive in answering questions and providing valuable information. Can't recommend this business enough! Thank you for all you do!
