Build a Bowl
Every dog is special. But it’s not just their personality. Every dog has unique nutrition needs based on their breed, size, shape, activity level and many other factors. The best way to help your dog be the best version of themselves is to build a healthy, balanced bowl that’s a combination of grains, vegetables, proteins, hydrators and supplements that are specific to your pet.
When you build a bowl here at Volhard, you will start with the choice of foundation mix. For better planning, it’s helpful to think about the dog you plan to feed and their issues first. This is where you can determine the "personality" of your bowl.
Build-a-Bowl is a fun way to find out what the nutritional value is in a bowl of Volhard! Then you will be asked to add a protein for a delectable super-powered meal for your dog!

Rescue Diet
I have been feeding my Spike Rescue Diet and limited ingredient kibble. He has environmental allergies and this combination has helped him tremendously!

Riley’s a fan!
Volhard Rescue has been our go to diet for about 6 months. Riley is allergic to so many diets but not this one. She loves it. We love that it’s a real chunky ingredient base and not ground into a powder like so many.

Life Saving Food
My husband and I are convinced this food saved our dogs life. We went through many years of trying to figure out his digestive issues, throwing up bile, diarrhea etc. Our poor pup has been through intestinal surgery twice now, was diagnosed with pancreatic and bound to be on medication for the rest of his life at 9 yo. We went looking for other options and came across this food. We mix it with beef for him and he LOVES it.. We didn't think our boy would make it much longer but he is now healthy and has almost as much energy as a puppy at 12 years old. He is med free and no more GI issues! We are so grateful for this product, it truly changed our pups life and ours. THANK YOU!

The Biggest Difference!!!
We started Rescue for a lot of reasons, I cannot say enough how wonderful it has been for our Doodle who has food allergies, skin scabbing, etc.… it did take us a while to find the protein that worked best, but we have !!!!

Volhard rescue diet
My fifty-pound boxer/pit/mix girl Rigby was having severe digestive problems. I finally found Volhard Rescue mix that I add my own gently cooked ground beef and or ground pork. It has really helped heal my girl Rigby. She has been on it for about two years and is so healthy and happy for her 10 years. I had tried a few other specialty dog diets before I found Volhard Rescue. I could not be happier with the results. And she LOVES it!
