Catch of the day: wild-caught herring, anchovy, and sardines!⁠
⁠
All FirstMate dry fish formulas use a combination of wild-caught herring, anchovy, and sardines that are caught near the water’s surface using sustainable fishing practices. The fish used in our diets are sourced in the Pacific Ocean.🐟️⁠
⁠
In pet food it can be difficult to determine if a fish formula contains the whole fish or just the heads and frames, as the fillets are utilized for human consumption.⁠ Herring, anchovy, and sardine are sourced mainly for their roe in North America, enabling FirstMate to use the WHOLE fish.  The inclusion of the whole fish increases the percentage of meat protein, which helps to ensure a high-quality fish diet.⁠
⁠
⭐️Quality ingredients are just one of the ways that we ensure a superior diet for your FirstMate.⁠
⁠
Have you heard? We've recently launched Pork! ⁠
⁠
Say hello to our newest additions to the FirstMate cans family: ⁠
Pork & Rice Formula and Pork & Apple Formula!⁠

Who is excited to try these out?
If you don't know which wet protein to choose for your pup, you can always match it to the color of their eyes 👀 ⁠
⁠
Our Grain Friendly Cage-Free Chicken & Rice not only matches Amber's eyes, but also proudly uses cage-free Chicken from British Columbia, Canada + quality rice. Our Chicken is boneless, food-grade and without added hormones.⁠
⁠
This Grain Friendly™ formula is ideal for everyday feeding and can be fed alongside one of our dry options or on its own as a complete and balanced formula.⁠
