Earth Bites Crunchy Treats

profit organization to have healthy, delicious treats to hand out at Spring Fling! If someone gives your dog a treat and they love it, there's a really good chance that it is an Earthborn Holistic treat! A customer once described walking around Spring Fling like taking your dog trick-or-treating from booth to booth! Earthborn is helping to make sure that it is at least mostly healthy "trick-or-treating" so that your dog leaves happy and with a full tummy, but not an upset one!

Earthborn donated a variety of flavors, but here is one example to give you an idea of what kind of treats you will find at Spring Fling! Can't read the ingredients in that picture? I'll save you the zooming and give it to you

straight.

Ingredients in the Earth Bites Crunchy Bison:

Bison Meal, Sweet Potato, Potato, Tapioca, Pumpkin, Beef Meal, Butternut Squash, Flaxseed, Dried Egg, Apples, Blueberries, Carrots, Cranberries, Spinach, Natural Flavors, Canola Oil (Preserved with Mixed Tocopherols), Rosemary Extract.

12 kcal/treat, 20% protein, 7% fat, 5% fiber, 10% moisture


Again, this is not the exact biscuit every booth will have, but it gives you an idea. Please ask the person giving your pet a treat exactly what it is if you have concerns. Unleashed will be able to find your dog a treat that they can have if your pet has restrictions- we have something for everyone, all you gotta' do is ask 😊!


ABOUT EARTHBORN HOLISTIC

"We Only Believe in Real Ingredients"
Earthborn partner with golden and treats

From duck, lamb, and turkey to chicken, beef, and a variety of seafoods, Earthborn only chooses nature’s finest proteins to provide a strong foundation for your pet’s health and wellbeing. A wholesome blend of superfoods such as pumpkin, apples, carrots, blueberries, and spinach will help support pets with sensitive skin and stomach. Their recipes also include a variety of ancient grains such as oatmeal, flaxseed, and quinoa blended together with amino acids like Taurine, Methionine, and L-Carnitine for heart health and overall immune health.


Their formulations are made with omegas to promote healthy skin and coat, fiber to support great digestion, limited ingredient diets for pets with allergies, and ingredients that keep your individual pet's needs in mind.


Earthborn Holistic is also choosy about their sourcing. Wild-capture Alaska fisheries process their Alaska Pollock meal, found in their Venture recipes, on state-of-the-art fishing vessels immediately after harvest to preserve important nutrients and freshness.


"We take a holistic approach to creating professionally formulated, great-tasting options for your pet. Every nutrient-rich ingredient is carefully selected and blended to create a complete and balanced diet for your furry family."

In addition to the nutritional needs of your pet, Earthborn has several programs in action to care for the planet too:

Unleashed Trivia


First Food

Did you know that way back in 2007, Unleashed started selling Canidae pet foods while still at the Flea Market, even before the very first store opened!?


Inspiration

Canidae inspired a deep dive into pet nutrition and pet food! When the founders/owners of Unleashed were young retail employees with a new puppy, before the existence of Unleashed, they discovered that because Canidae was so nutrient dense, they could feed their 60 lb. young, active dog less of Canidae than cheaper brands. When they did the math, Canidae was actually less expensive to feed than cheaper brands over time because they had to feed so much less of it (about half as much!) This also had the added benefits of less poop and a healthier pup long-term! It was a win-win-win and such a revelation it inspired them to want to educate everyone that they could and also drove them to discover more quality pet food brands as well!


This desire to share the knowledge that you can feed your pet healthier without it having to cost more was part of the inspiration to open a pet store filled with the best products for dogs and cats at affordable prices too! Thank you Canidae!


Since then, they have discovered many wonderful brands of pet food to offer a variety and to find something that fits everyone's needs. But Unleashed is happy to still have Canidae on its shelves after all these years!




See the products in person and try them for your pet in your local Unleashed store, where every product is 100% satisfaction guaranteed!


Please consider trying out Canidae food and/or treats for your dog(s) and/or cat(s) from Unleashed as this is how we keep Spring Fling going and going. Spring Fling is only possible with the support of our community supporting our sponsors and host, Unleashed.

ABOUT PRIMAL


Primal Pet Foods began in 2000, when founder Matt learned that his dog, Luna, was showing early signs of kidney failure. He discovered the BARF (biologically appropriate raw food) diet and developed his own to try with Luna. It only took a short time for him to see a change in Luna- more energy and an increased appetite! After that, Matt made it his goal to get Primal to other pet parents so that they could get the same benefits from it as Luna.


Primal easy to feed nutrition step by step sign

Primal offers a variety of nutritious food options for both dogs and cats, including frozen raw, freeze-dried meals, toppers, hydrators, and treats. No matter where you are in your pet’s feeding journey, adding raw can provide significant benefits. For those just starting out, Primal offers easy add-ons like goat’s milk, bone broth, and nutrient-rich toppers to enhance kibble. Experienced raw feeders can explore their extensive selection of frozen and freeze-dried options. With a range of products designed to suit every pet’s needs, Primal makes incorporating raw nutrition simple and accessible!


"We’re pet lovers who pioneered raw nutrition for pets and have been creating premium quality, protein-rich recipes for dogs and cats since 2001. Why? Because we believe when pets eat according to their biological needs, they can always be in their prime."

Primal raw protein to keep dogs in their prime

Primal promises raw nutrition that keeps pets in their prime. A few components of this commitment include:


  • Real, recognizable, high-quality ingredients

They only put the best in to get the best out. Primal's protein forward recipes include ingredients that best serve pets' ancestral needs.


  • Minimal processing to protect vital nutrients

    Primal's recipes are crafted to resemble a pet's natural diet, are minimally processed, and are not cooked under high heat, which preserves more vital nutrients.


  • Superior digestibility for better nutrition

    Raw, minimally processed foods provide superior digestibility so that pets can absorb nutrients for optimal nutrition.


  • Scientifically substantiated, protein-forward recipes

Primal's raw recipes are formulated with expertise by a Companion Animal Nutritionist.


Primal Complete and safe raw diet

Primal takes pride in crafting complete and balanced recipes made with real, whole foods that support pets' health and wellbeing. Their formulas are free from synthetic vitamins and minerals, ensuring that every ingredient serves a natural purpose. Committed to responsible sourcing, Primal uses only proteins raised without antibiotics, steroids, or added hormones. They carefully select certified USDA Organic fruits and vegetables, avoiding fillers such as corn, wheat, soy, legumes, and lentils. With dedication to quality and safety, Primal upholds the highest standards to provide pets with the best possible nutrition.


"We're committed to making raw nutrition more convenient and accessible for all pets and their parents."

DogRisk
DogRisk: the only independent and university-based research group in the world, which analyses the connections between diets, environmental factors and chronic diseases that affect dogs.

FUN FACT: According to the University of Helsinki’s DogRisk research, incorporating as little

as 20% raw food into a dog's diet provides significant health benefits, particularly in preventing allergies and atopy-related skin symptoms. A little goes a long way 🥳!


See the products in person and try them for your pet in your local Unleashed store, where every product is satisfaction guaranteed! Don't see an improvement after incorporating 20% raw into your pet's diet? We'll give you a refund! We can attest that our anecdotal stories over the past 20 years support the DogRisk study 100%!


Whether you try just a little, or 20%, or 100%, please consider trying out Primal food and/or treats and/or toppers/broths/milks for your dog(s) and/or cat(s) from Unleashed as this is how we keep Spring Fling going and going. Spring Fling is only possible with the support of our community supporting our sponsors and host, Unleashed.


Be sure to stop by the Primal booth at Spring Fling to say hi and say THANK YOU for their support. BONUS: Stopping by their booth will help you with the Scavenger Hunt, a FREE to play game where everyone wins something!
