Choosing the right food for your dog can feel overwhelming. With shelves lined with colorful cans, bags, and endless promises, how do you know what truly matters? Pet parents consistently focus on a few key priorities when it comes to feeding their furry family members. We have narrowed down what matters to you most — and for 90 years, Evanger’s has been dedicated to meeting them all.

1. High-Quality Protein Source 🐾

Dogs thrive on real meat. That’s why every Evanger’s recipe begins with whole, named proteins like chicken, beef, or salmon — never by-products.

2. Digestibility & Sensitivity Friendly 🌿

Gentle, limited-ingredient recipes mean easier digestion for sensitive stomachs. Options like chicken & rice or exotic proteins help keep mealtime stress-free.

3. Life Stage & Breed Appropriateness 🍼

From bouncy puppies to wise seniors, nutrition needs change. Evanger’s recipes are formulated to AAFCO standards for all life stages and breeds — even giant dogs like the Great Danes that inspired our very first recipes over 90 years ago.

4. Health Benefits Beyond Basics ✨

Good food does more than fill a bowl. Evanger’s formulas support joint health, shiny coats, immune strength, and overall vitality. Specialty lines like EVx add targeted wellness support.

5. Safety & Transparency ✅

Trust matters. Family-owned since 1935, Evanger’s proudly hand-packs its foods in the USA. Our recipes are crafted with the highest standards of care and accountability.

6. Palatability & Real Results 🍽️

At the end of the day, taste wins. Pet parents rave about how their picky eaters finally lick the bowl clean — and how they see the difference in energy, stool quality, and shiny coats.
