K9 Candy Kitchen
From Farm to Floor
In 2016, co-founder Nicole cared for her friend’s dog, Willie, who developed cancer and was visibly in a lot of pain, so in turn Nicole began adding a little hemp extract to Willie’s food each day. Soon after, he showed signs of relief and renewed energy, even in the face of his terminal illness.
K9 Candy Kitchen was then born by sourcing the highest quality ingredients they could find, carefully selected for optimal holistic benefits and baked the chews at low temperatures to preserve the integrity of the nutrients and the hemp oil extract they contained.
Farming Practices
Our passion for pet and planet starts with a seed. K9 Candy Kitchen is a truly Farm to Floor™ brand. Our products are made with certified organic, ethically sourced and regeneratively grown hemp. We partner with Ventura Seed Company who is committed to increasing organic research and farmer training opportunities in California. We continue to learn about growing in a true regenerative fashion to support the health of people and the planet, with the help of Rodale Institute and local farmers.
From Farm-to-Floor
K9 Candy Kitchen (K9CK) thoroughly tests each product and publishes documentation regularly, staying transparent and keeping customers informed of dosages. All hemp oil is traceable back to the row of plants where it comes from.
In addition to the human-grade, full-spectrum hemp oil, each recipe prioritizes organic and all-natural ingredients based on the original recipes first tested in Emily’s home kitchen. Every recipe uses minimal ingredients, carefully selected for optimal health benefits. K9CK products empower customers to put their furry companion’s health first. Every chew is made with love, from farm to floor.
The History of the Brand
Nicole teamed up with her sister and fellow animal-lover, Emily. The sisters got to work developing a formula for a pet chew worth drooling over. They brought their shared experiences in the food service and healthcare industries, and passion for sustainable living.
First, they sourced the highest quality ingredients they could find, carefully selected for optimal holistic benefits. Next, they baked the chews at low temperatures to preserve the integrity of the nutrients and the hemp oil extract they contained.
They started with the most crucial ingredient: hemp oil. The sisters wanted to assure their furry clients that health and safety was their number one priority. They knew that many other hemp products already made it into animal bowls everywhere. However, the other brands out there were not transparent about how they sourced their ingredients. In addition, brands weren’t completely transparent about which farms their hemp oil came from.
The small company started out as “CBDawgs,” with Emily and Nicole testing recipes in their kitchens. Then, the company changed its name to K9 Candy Kitchen (K9CK). As the K9CK grew, so did the sisters’ approach to formulating products with a responsible and transparent approach. Now Chasing Our Tails owns the brand and continues to produce product right here in the USA with the same approach and transparency.
