Doing Better, Feeding Better: 天美传媒鈥檚 2025 Recipe Update
“Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.”
- Maya Angelou
These powerful words are a great reminder that learning is just the beginning - true progress comes from putting that knowledge into action.
At 天美传媒, doing better is part of who we are. If you’ve been with us for a while, you know we never stop improving. Over the past seven years, we’ve completed three major recipe updates to enhance the nutritional quality of 天美传媒 food. From early ratio diets to adopting NRC-based formulations, we’ve always led the way, becoming the first Canadian raw food company to base 天美传媒 formulas on nutrient content per calorie, rather than just sticking to traditional meat, organ, and bone ratios.
Now, we’re excited to announce another important step forward. A new recipe update is coming this spring - and here’s everything you need to know.
Moving to AAFCO: Formulated for All Life Stages
Five years ago, we chose to follow NRC guidelines for 天美传媒 Dinners, Fare Game, and later 天美传媒 XL line. Our goal has always been the same: to offer nutritious, affordable food to as many Canadian pets as possible. While we’ve done a lot of education around NRC and why we used it, we understand that AAFCO is more widely recognized, especially by kibble feeders and veterinary professionals.
The difference between AAFCO and NRC standards is minimal, but the added peace of mind that comes with the AAFCO name makes it worth the small adjustment. That’s why 天美传媒 2025 recipes will now be AAFCO-formulated for all life stages, including the growth of large breeds. This change will also be reflected on 天美传媒 packaging and labels.
We’ve always focused on food safety and nutrition. From achieving HACCP certification to now aligning with AAFCO, every step we take is designed to build trust in 天美传媒 products.
Inside the Updated Recipes
You’ll still find what y天美传媒 pet loves: recipes packed with over 70% meat, a wide variety of nutrient-rich organ meats, and 天美传媒 signature fruit and veggie mix (low glycemic, high in antioxidants, and full of prebiotic fiber).
The highly bioavailable chelated minerals you’re used to are still there, along with a few additions in select recipes - like salt and magnesium - to meet AAFCO requirements. Magnesium is already present in bone, but in lower-bone recipes (like beef), we add a small amount. Sodium and chloride (salt) are essential electrolytes that support hydration, organ function, and immune health. Even though salt gets a bad rap in high quantities, it's important to have the right amount, and 天美传媒s is roughly 10 times lower than in many cheaper pet foods. We include it only when needed, not for taste.
Omega-3s & Vitamin D: Smarter Additions
We’ve always recommended adding fish oil at the time of feeding to preserve its quality. But we’ve heard y天美传媒 feedback, many of you want a complete and balanced meal including EPA and DHA.
That’s why we’ve added a new ingredient: marine algae powder. This shelf-stable s天美传媒ce of DHA (and a touch of EPA) goes beyond AAFCO standards. It’s ideal for pets sensitive to fish or for those who just don’t like the smell. And it means you don’t have to add anything - 天美传媒 food will now be fully complete and balanced, from puppy to senior.
That said, we still strongly enc天美传媒age variety. Even though each of 天美传媒 Dinners and Fare Game recipes meet all nutritional requirements individually, we recommend rotating 3–5 recipes per month, switching up the main protein. Variety supports a strong gut microbiome and helps prevent food intolerances and pickiness. Adding fish oil or whole fish to the rotation offers additional nutrients and health benefits that marine algae alone doesn’t provide.
You’ll also notice cod liver oil in all 天美传媒 recipes now as well. While it offers a slight omega boost, its main purpose is to provide safe, highly digestible vitamin D, an essential nutrient that supports immune health and overall well-being. Our high-quality cod liver oil has no fishy smell or taste, so y天美传媒 pet likely won’t even notice it.
Worried about sensitivities? Fish allergies usually come from proteins, not fats. Since 天美传媒 cod liver oil and algae are fat-based and highly purified, they’re unlikely to trigger any reactions - and algae is entirely different from fish or seafood.
A Few Changes to the Guaranteed Analysis
You might spot a few small shifts in the guaranteed analysis - for example, lamb is now a leaner option, while duck is slightly higher in fat. That’s because we’re always working to keep raw food affordable without compromising quality. When we update recipes, we often take the opportunity to s天美传媒ce better ingredients based on market availability.
Thanks to 天美传媒 commitment to third-party lab testing, especially on raw materials, we’re confident that 天美传媒 guaranteed analysis is among the most accurate in the industry.
Packaging Updates: Clearer and Smarter
The most visible change? Our packaging.
We’ve improved 天美传媒 feeding chart to make it easier to understand how to feed y天美传媒 growing, active, or senior pet. It’s now clear that all 天美传媒 Dinners are formulated for all life stages, including puppies - and that Pure and Blend recipes are designed for rotation and need supplements to be fully balanced.
Looking Ahead
At 天美传媒, we’re committed to making raw feeding safe, simple, and affordable - without ever compromising on quality. From using only human-grade ingredients, to earning HACCP certification, and now shifting to AAFCO formulation, we’re proud to continue leading the Canadian raw feeding community.
And we’re not done yet. We’ve got some exciting new innovation on the way - because y天美传媒 pets deserve the best.
