The Superfood Revolution is the feeding of an antioxidant-based, anti-inflammatory diet with a healthy balance of meats, vegetables, fruits, and oils, all while avoiding the toxic effects of kibble. This type of diet will result in a longer, healthier life for most dogs. It is revolutionary because the bulk of fresh food diets offered for dogs are heavily meat-based in a simplistic concept of dogs being “carnivores”, which they are not. In fact, your dog’s biology is much more like yours than it is like natural carnivores. Therefore, the closer your dog’s food resembles yours, the better.

Absolutely! Focusing on fresh ingredients not only promotes improved health, but also boosts nutrients and palatability. Processing such as canning or drying can deteriorate the quality of nutrients, fiber, flavor, and even natural color; all heat-processing for kibble or canning introduces toxic Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs). Processing of any type reduces the nutrient content and strips away those vital antioxidants that support immune health and protect cells from damage.

TōTUS means the “total” dog. Our food truly satisfies the needs of our loving companions – body, tummy, and mind. Unlike most commercial kibbles TōTUS Dog Food is not the product of a marketing concept overlaid on a food originally made for another species. Perfectly designed to fit your dog’s needs, the TōTUS Difference is our commitment to healthier, longer-living dogs!

Convenience is certainly a great benefit, but is it healthy for your dog? In a word, NO! Kibble is generally made up of grains and other high-starch carbohydrates like high-glycemic, genetically-engineered corn, wheat, rice, or potato. Worse yet is the high heat required to develop room temperature preservation, which introduces chemicals – known as Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) – which actively harm dogs. Reaching temperatures of nearly 500°F, virtually all nutrition is cooked out of the food as these toxins are introduced. Nutrients are then adding back by way of less bio-available supplements. The negative health impact of decades of kibble on these beloved family members is well proven. For all they do for us, they deserve better than convenience.

All ingredients were chosen with the total health and satisfaction of your dog in mind. In addition to the great physical health benefits of our superfoods, certain key ingredients are satisfying to your dog’s deepest needs. For a dog, satisfaction of his/her primal needs is the definition of mental health. By satisfying the Body and Tummy, you are satisfying his/her psychological needs. What better way is there to tell our dogs how much they mean to us? What better way to have your dog see you as the loving leader, which is the perfect human-dog relationship?

It is critically important for puppies to have the special nutrients of our puppy formula. This naturally drives the question, “at what age does a puppy become an adult dog?” “Drs. Rick and Nathan say, “we strongly recommend our puppy formula for all puppies and young dogs”. Our puppy formula is the ideal choice for any dog under 2 years old (especially larger breeds), but a must for any dog, <12-months old. Remember, Drs. Rick and Nathan also tell us that puppy food (technically called “All Life Stages”) is perfectly suited for all dogs, no matter their age.

The guide included under the page heading “Tailored & Prepared with Care” contains the information required by law for regulatory compliance. As such, it is not fully customized for your dog. We asked you to tell us about your dog so that we could customize a TōTUS recommended plan for optimal health, happiness, and satisfaction. To view this plan, please log in to your TōTUS account and click the “Orders” tab. From there, please find your original order and click the “View” tab to the right. Here, you will see the recommended amount of food (in pounds) per day. This number is in the second-to-last line of the “Product” area of the order summary. While the TōTUS plan has been customized for your dog’s needs, even this is only a start to a proper feeding plan. By preparing your dog’s healthy TōTUS food each day, you are the best judge of exactly how much nutrition your beloved pet requires.
