    Kaz & Crash

    “Our Australian shepherd, Crash, is normally a good boy. He waits politely in his spot for his breakfast and dinner, and only starts to eat once we release him.

    This all changed with the arrival of Slop. Crash could not contain his excitement and dove straight in, without waiting for his release command, finishing his dinner in record time. I guess we will have to retrain that!

    He is also usually sensitive when his diet is changed. But his poops are great and solid (sorry if TMI LOL)

    Crash will be eating slop from here on out!”

    Jeff & Miles

    “When Miles was a puppy she unfortunately caught giardia. To make matters more difficult it turned out she also had an allergic reaction to some medications as well, making it very difficult to take care of her gut and digestive health.

    She has never fully recovered from her illness as a puppy. I tried different kibbles, I switched over to raw which was very, very hit or miss on her gut, and this has been the one meal I know she can eat which will not irritate her stomach.

    Since she’s been eating Slop she has done so much better. Her gut health has overall improved and she no longer has yellowed teeth like she did when I fed her only kibble. She went from liquid exits to solid, single-coloured exits. YOU GET WHAT I MEAN!!”

    Zeina & Peter

    Switching Peter’s food to Slop from other alternatives has kept his gut health more consistently healthy than ever before.

    I feel comfort knowing he is getting protein from real meats, nutrients from plants, and is getting his energy from food we could eat ourselves.

    Peter is often complimented for his teddy-soft coat and clean teeth which I attribute to keeping his health and diet top of mind at all times! Feeding him Slop makes sure he blossoms from the inside out.

FAQs

  • What is in Slop?

    Each Slop recipe will always include a protein, hydration, vegetables, fruits, and herbs (like turmeric, ginger, powdered eggshells).

    Our ingredients are human-grade and you can eat a spoonful of slop if you want!
    (although with no onions or garlic we can’t promise it will be as tasty for you as it is for your dog…)

  • How much Slop do I give my dog?

    If you are giving your dog slop for the first time always test out a small amount before attempting to add it to their meals.

    Here are our recommended feeding guidelines:

    - Small Dogs (up to 20 lbs): ½ cup - 1 cup per day (up to ½ a pack)

    - Medium Dogs (20-50 lbs): 1 cup - 3 cups per day (up to 1 ½ packs)

    - Large Dogs (50-90 lbs): 3 cups - 5 cups per day (up to 2 ½ packs)

    - Giant Dogs (90 lbs+): 5 cups - 6 cups per day (up to 3 packs)

    Each pack of Slop is 500 grams.

    You should always adjust the portions based on age, activity, and health needs.

  • How should I store Slop?

    You can keep Slop in your freezer for up to three years from the production date. We vacuum seal our Slops to ensure they are immune to freezer-burn!

    To feed your dog Slop, be sure to defrost it first in the fridge overnight.

    Refrigerate any unused Slop portions and use within 3 days.

  • Who is Slop for?

    Slop is for any and all dogs.

    Slop is ideal for people who want to try a cooked, more gentle option for their dogs stomach or for the pet parent that is already cooking food for their dogs at home.

  • Is Slop locally-sourced?

    Yes, Slop is locally-sourced exclusively from suppliers in British Columbia, Canada— right down to our boxes.

    Each individual Slop’s recipe is evaluated by the Buy BC Team, and each packaging label is also approved by the Buy BC Team.

  • Is cooked food a better option for my dog?

    If you have tried other alternatives, like a raw diet or kibble, you should consider adding Slop to the mix.

    Cooked food like Slop is oftentimes more gentle on your dog’s digestion than alternatives.

  • We're currently on raw diet and are thinking of switching to cooked food. Should we try Slop?

    Yes!

    The main benefit of a raw diet for dogs is by avoiding the cooking process your dog will receive nutrients that it may not otherwise.

    At Slop, we cook locally-sourced food for your dogs. Cooked food improves digestibility and greatly reduces the risk of foodborne illnesses.

    To ensure that our food is packed with tons of nutrients, antioxidants, and minerals, we include fruits, veggies, bone broth, and other 100% natural ingredients that you can eat yourself!

  • We're a kibble household. Why should we try Slop?

    Imagine you had cereal for breakfast every day.

    Now, imagine you had cereal for every meal every day.

    While kibble can provide what you need for your dog, mixing in Slop can make your dog’s meals more exciting.

    Slop’s locally-sourced cooked food for dogs provides protein, hydration, fruits, vegetables, herbs, and more for your dog too.

  • Do I give my dog a full Slop meal or should I always mix it?

    Yes, you can absolutely feed your dog a Slop meal without adding any kibble, treats, or other garnishes to the bowl.

    You can also mix it with other dog food like kibble or sardines, for example.

    The feeding guidelines are based on the assumption that your dog is also consuming treats during the day and/or additional garnishes in its meal.

  • Why does Slop look yellow in some places?

    Slop is made with real turmeric! Real turmeric oftentimes looks yellow, especially in the soupier areas in our Slop. While the turmeric adds a bit of yellow to our Slop, it won’t stain any of your dog bowls.

  • What are the white dots in slop?

    That’s the powdered eggshell we use in our Slop to ensure your dog is getting all the calcium it needs. Eggshells are also pretty great at wiping plaque from your dogs teeth as it eats the slop.
