Recently Herbie’s vet, the wonderful Dr. Jenna at , informed us that Herbie needed more water in his diet.

Turns out a lot of fresh-fed dogs don’t drink as much water as dry-fed dogs because there’s so much moisture in fresh food. Sure, we now add more water and bone broth to his bowl, and we give him ice chips for treats (he’s easy).

But we (and he!) also loves watermelon! 🍉 Fed in moderation, and seedless, watermelon is a sweet and healthful snack.

Naturally, we get our watermelons locally, at the from farmers such as .hollow.steph, , and . Grab a couple for the whole family—dogs included—tomorrow after stopping by our booth.

Meet our friend, Joyan. Some of you will see her tomorrow New Canaan Farmers Market and others know her from Ridgefield Farmers Market, but few know that she will be the PCPF guest Instagram poster for the next two weeks while Paul and I are away.
🙏🏼
This woman is multi talented—we highly recommend you follow her for food and recipes that are among the BEST we have ever eaten. And her photos!!! She’s also an artist and proud cat lady.

We love her and her kitties (yes, we feed them) and trust you will be in great hands with her at the Instagram wheel. Enjoy.

“Did you know that only a handful of companies dominate the meat industry?

Four companies - Tyson, Purdue, Sanderson Farms and Pilgrim’s Pride - control 54% of the U.S. poultry industry.

Four companies - Tyson, Seaboard Foods, JBS and Smithfield Foods - control 70% of the U.S. pork industry.

Four companies - Cargill, Tyson, National Beef and JBS - control 85% of the U.S. beef industry.

Do you know Victoria from Sankow's Beaver Brook Farm, Haley from Hoadley Hills Farm, Jaci from The Hickories, Whitney from Henny Penny Farm, Stephanie from Ox Hollow Farm, and Sarah from Calf and Clover Creamery?

These are the women who raise the meat you have the ability to buy and feed your families. These women care about the land, the animal and the end of life process for their animals.

You tell me.... do you trust one of the “four companies” or do you trust these women?” ~ Lori

It’s not easy working with a spouse/life partner, but it is so rewarding, as many in this group will tell you. We’ve built beautiful friendships with vendors, farmers, and customers over the 10 years we’ve been part of the market scene in Connecticut. There have been many laughs, tears, triumphs, and challenges, but we wouldn’t trade a minute of it. We love this family we’ve cultivated here. Thanks for giving us the opportunity Westport Farmers' Market, and thanks to our customers for sharing the journey with us.❤️

Around 6.5 tons of plastic-wrapped dog p**p winds up in landfills in the United States every year. As most cities see it, that's the only safe option.

Our Story

Our story began in 2010 when our 3-year-old dog, Hunter, was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. We were told he had six months to live and were given the option of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. We decided not to take the recommended action and instead sought the advice of Dr. Hannah Wells, a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine. Dr. Wells prescribed a mix of Chinese herbal medicines and a recipe for Hunter, which Paul prepared each day. With Dr. Well’s guidance, Paul taught himself everything he could about holistic pet health and canine nutrition. He told his buddy, “If you keep living, I’ll keep cooking.”

Determined to help others have healthier pets, Paul and Lynn opened Paul’s Custom Pet Food in 2014. Today, the couple works with pet owners, veterinarians, and pet nutritionists to prepare food for companion animals. We source the highest-quality, restaurant-grade ingredients from farmers and small businesses, organic and local if possible. Paul makes all food by hand. Paul and Lynn sell food direct to consumer at farmers’ markets and deliver it personally, getting to know both pets and their caretakers by name.

Sadly, Hunter passed away in June of 2019. He was almost 13 years old - ten years past his initial diagnosis and death sentence. Today he lives through the food Paul creates for other pets, and in the business Paul and Lynn created in his name. Paul now extends the promise he made to Hunter to your pets.

For more information about us, including purchasing options and where to find us, please visit our website at www.paulscustompetfood.com, and follow us on Instagram @paulscustompetfood. Thank you for your support and for taking such great care of your companions.
