Your pet deserves the best: Try Spot & Tango’s fresh, human-grade food and save

Spot & Tango Fresh dog food options product types.
Spot & Tango

Your pets are family, and they deserve the best. So, why are you feeding them dog food that lacks essential nutrients? Worse yet, most foods include artificial additives or preservatives, not unlike human food, that’s not healthy for your furry companion. Isn’t it about time you gave them something better? Spot & Tango wants to help you do that with its Fresh line of recipes cooked to order and delivered frozen. It’s also an excellent option for picky eaters, including senior dogs, and fresh plans start at a reasonable $15 per week.

If you’re looking for a more budget-oriented option, or you and Fido prefer dry dog food, Spot & Tango’s UnKibble line features plans that start at just $7 per week. It provides all the functional benefits of fresh food with the convenience of dry dog food. Both options provide 100% human-grade, whole dog foods, with quality and care as a top priority. There are no powdered “meat meals,” no artificial additives, no preservatives, and no soy, gluten, wheat, antibiotics, or GMOs.

It sounds fantastic, right? Let’s dig our paws in and closely examine each option.

You’ve heard of meal kits before. The Fresh line is the same, except for dogs. Before meals are selected, Spot & Tango personalizes every plan to your dog’s unique profile. Factoring in age, weight, breed, activity level, and dietary needs, the fresh meals are made-to-order to serve your best friend’s vital needs. All fresh meals come in pre-portioned packs, chosen and formulated by an award-winning team of veterinary nutritionists.

All recipes contain 100% fresh, whole ingredients, with meals like turkey and red quinoa, beef and millet, or lamb and brown rice. They’re cooked in small batches in a USDA kitchen, which helps to maximize nutritional integrity – your companion is always getting the best of the best from Spot & Tango.

To help you choose a dietary plan, you’ll take a brief quiz, sharing some information about you and your pet – nothing too personal – and then you’ll get customized recommendations ideal for your little family.

The Spot & Tango UnKibbles line

Do you prefer dry food? No problem. It’s more convenient and a great way to feed your best friend, and you don’t have to sacrifice any of the benefits of fresh food and ingredients. That’s because UnKibble is explicitly designed to be human-grade, 100% whole food quality. Although they include radically simple recipes, these are real ingredients, and they’re absolutely delicious.

Like the Fresh recipes, UnKibble features personalized plans tailored to your dog’s traits. The food even comes with a personalized scoop just for your pup. You’ll know exactly how much to feed them per serving each time.

To quickly compare, regular kibble foods don’t feature feed-grade ingredients but include powdered meat meals, fillers, and additives. They are extruded at high temperatures, killing off any helpful nutrients. UnKibble is gently dried at a low temperature, preserving the nutrients. It only includes fresh, whole ingredients and real meats and has no artificial additives, colors, or flavoring.

Direct to you: The ultimate convenience

Of course, the best part about both plans is that the food is delivered right to your doorstep. No more fussing or straining with big bags of dog food in the store. It comes right to you, ready to eat, and your dog will love it.

Why not head to Spot & Tango and take the 3-minute quiz to get your personalized plan(s)? You’ll also be given a special trial offer, which includes 55% off your first order when you use code PAWTRACK55 at checkout.

What is littermate syndrome? Why this puppy bond can be a problem
Why you want to avoid littermate syndrome (and what to do if you didn't)
Golden retriever puppies

What's better than bringing one puppy home? Two — or so you might think. Welcoming two puppies at the same time can seem adorable in theory, especially if they're from the same litter. The two puppies already knew one another and were perhaps born within seconds of one another. Siblings growing up together, what could be more fun?

However, most animal behavioral experts recommend against getting two puppies on the same day (or within six months). They're not trying to rain on your puppy parade. Instead, experts warn against the possibility of littermate syndrome. What is littermate syndrome, and why can it be so stressful? Let's discuss. We'll also work through ways to treat littermate syndrome if your pets already have the issue.

Can dogs eat strawberries? Everything you need to know
Yes, you can feed strawberries to Fido. Here's how
A brown and white dog eats a strawberry off a fork

Sharing food with our dogs is one of the most fun parts of pet ownership. But animals can't always eat the same stuff as humans (and we certainly don't want to chew on their chow, either). It's important to keep a restriction list in mind when you go to get your buddy a snack from the kitchen. Pups shouldn't eat everything in our pantry, but can dogs eat strawberries? The answer is: Yes, they can and will enjoy them. We'll walk you through how to feed strawberries to dogs and what other fruits they can gnaw on.
Are strawberries toxic for dogs?
No, not at all, and in fact, many dogs love strawberries. Like so many other fruits, strawberries have a lot of nutrients and tons of water, making them a good and reasonably low-calorie snack. However, the drawback is that they're very sweet. That's probably half the reason that Fido likes them!

Because of their high sugar content, though, you should limit how many strawberries — or any berries — you give your pooch per day. The exact number you give depends on the size of your pup pup, with the littlest breeds only needing one per day. A large beastie can have as many as four, and you should scale up or down for all sizes in between.
How should I prepare strawberries for my dog?
Before passing this treat to your animal, make sure to remove the green bits, though a tiny bit of leftover leaf won't hurt. The biggest issue with this fruit is the size — strawberries are a choking hazard. If you have a little guy that takes big bites, you'll want to chop these up small first before doling them out. Lastly, remember that we're talking about fresh strawberries, not canned or jammed or anything like that.
What fruits are not good for dogs?
You should certainly make your buddy avoid all the fruits you don't eat either like red berries he might find growing in the wild. However, the biggest fruits your dog can never eat are grapes and raisins. Science hasn't quite figured out why, but these delectables don't do well for our hounds, and even just one grape can turn deadly. Lastly, stay away from the following just to be safe: green tomatoes, cherries, limes, lemons, and avocado (technically a fruit and bad for dogs in large quantities).
