Can you believe Big Dog will be 25 next year! 🎉🎉🎉 Here's a throwback from our 20 year anniversary:
"Starting a raw pet food business 20 years ago wasn’t a popular idea and it was an uphill battle for a long time. However, I’ve enjoyed this ride and I continue to enjoy this ride, the industry, the Big Dog family, my family, and, of course, you and your family, gives me as the Founder of Big Dog, nothing but more motivation to continue to do what we do best, all raw natural diets that will promote health, wellbeing and longevity for our pets... of all sizes." - Chris Essex, Owner, Founder and Managing Director of Big Dog Pet Foods
