What's actually in pet food?

ItchyCody is a grassroots project our family undertook for our dogs Cody and Sophie - we wanted to help them be healthier. We needed to get to the bottom of what they were eating, to understand what was making them itchy and sick.

Our journey to catalog 4,000+ foods was long and complicated. We have brought all our research together to freely share, so every family can easily find safe foods for their pets.
