Canidae

CANIDAE was founded in 1996 by Scott Whipple and John Gordon, two pet owners determined to build dog and cat food on real meat and whole ingredients — no artificial fillers, no by-products. Made at their own facility in Brownwood, Texas, the brand grew into one of North America's most trusted premium pet food names before merging with Natural Balance under parent company Ethos Pet Brands in 2023.

Their range spans dry food, wet food, raw-coated kibble, and treats — across lines including All Life Stages and Grain Free Pure — formulated for dogs and cats with a focus on high-protein, sustainable nutrition.
