Our Story
Our story began when our new family member Baxter Bear kept being sick. We ran every test and tried multiple high-end dog foods and supplements. After months of worry, he was diagnosed with major food allergies and intolerances. We put him on an exclusion diet and slowly began to understand what he could and couldn't have, and there was so much he couldn't have.
As we navigated the challenges of pet nutrition, we realised the importance of having natural, healthy and also delicious alternatives for furbabies with similar dietary restrictions.
Inspired by our boys' unwavering companionship, love, and devotion, we embarked on a journey of culinary creativity, crafting homemade meals and treats that not only nourish their bodies but also tantalize their taste buds. Our kitchen became a hub of innovation (and chaos) as we sought to cater to their needs while indulging their cravings for variety—after all, as they say, variety is the spice of life, especially for our beloved Baxter and Bentley. We did our research and looked up food and treat options that used alternative proteins and healthy less allergenic ingredients. From that point on, Baxter Bear didn't have any more major related food issues (unless he ate something on a walk he shouldn't of).
We began giving away our food and treats to friends who had dogs with similar dietary issues. We were told we should start a business to give more dogs the opportunity that Baxter Bear, his brother Bentley Bear, and their doggie friends were getting.
That was the start of Baxter and Bentley Dog Company. We hope every doggie loves our food and treats as much as our boys do.
At our heart is a dedication to providing only the finest ingredients, sourced with care and prepared with meticulous attention to detail. Because we believe that every pet deserves nothing less than the absolute best, whether they prefer/need the savory richness of venison or the wholesome goodness of vegan delights.
