Simple routine: Pantry staple + fresh dog food topper = dinner in minutes.
Flexible portions: Keep your usual kibble amount; add a measured topper.

How to build a better bowl (fast)
Start at 10–25% topper / 75–90% kibble.
Warm the topper a few seconds to boost aroma.
Stir to coat or place on top for extra excitement.
Go gradual over 3–5 days for sensitive bellies.
Store smart: Our toppers come portioned—use what you need, freeze the rest.
