Cave Pets releases regenerative organic supplement powders and chomps for dogs
12 Apr 2024 --- Omni-channel pet nutrition brand Cave Pets unveiled premium supplements to enhance the health of dogs at every stage of life. The newly launched range includes chomps and treats, blend powders and mushroom powders made from clinically studied, whole-food nutrients to boost the health of dogs at every stage of life.
The pet supplements are formulated with novel ingredients such as turkey tail, lion’s mane, reishi mushrooms, probiotics, turmeric, beets, and proprietary blends to support a healthy immune system, microbiome and joints.
“Cave Pets is setting the standard for other brands in the pet nutrition space. We imagine a world in which farmers, brands, policymakers, educators, researchers and individuals come together to create a healthy food system that respects land, animals, empowers people and restores communities and ecosystems through regenerative farming,” says Elizabeth Whitlow, communications director of Regenerative Organic Alliance.
Organic certified
The company claims it is the first brand with regenerative organic certified products with ingredients that are sourced on vertically integrated ROC farmland in Tennessee and Missouri, US. Organic certification marks an important step for the company. ROC certification covers food, textiles and personal care ingredients.
“There is an increasing need for transparency and accountability in pet food and pet nutrition production. Our Regenerative Organic Certified status substantiates our mission of evolving pet nutrition while reversing negative impacts on the environment. It also ensures Cave Pets is meeting the highest standards in the world for soil health, animal welfare, and social fairness,” says Jason Dewberry, co-founder of Cave Pets.
Cave Pets was launched to provide pets with clinically studied superfoods and glandular ingredients. It dedicates 1% of all revenue to regenerative agriculture, nutrition and climate health.
Superfoods and glandular ingredients
The chomp treats are available in liver and beet, glandular and turmeric and multi-glandular offerings paired with hemp, probiotics and turmeric. The mushroom powder products include turkey tail and probiotics, reishi and probiotics, multi-shroom and probiotics and lion’s mane and probiotics.
“We’re excited to bring these innovative, life-changing supplements to pet parents who want the best nutrition to help their pets thrive. With mix-in powders that can easily be added to food as well as flavorful tablets and treats, Cave Pets supplements fill nutritional gaps to nourish puppies, adults, and senior dogs so pets can achieve optimal health and live their best lives,” says Dewberry.
During 2023, the microbiome and pet nutrition saw surges in consumer interest. At the same time, calls for healthier and more sustainable options in foods and supplements put the environment and the circular economy at the forefront of innovation.
Meanwhile, the One Health Microbiome Resource is the latest brainchild of Hill’s Pet Nutrition and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, aiming to advance research into the microbiome of pets and humans.
