NUTRITION

HIGH QUALITY NUTRITION FOR EVERY PET

We work closely with an expert nutrition team — with decades of animal nutrition experience — to develop all of our Next Level formulas. From creating our proprietary VX Advantage™ to controlling macro and micro minerals, our nutritional team is dedicated to supporting dogs of all sizes and needs.

VX Advantage™ — to support immunity, digestion, metabolism and whole body health

Controlled macrominerals, like calcium and phosphorus

Thoughtfully selected and sourced ingredients

Formula options for every life stage, size, and activity level

Multiple formulas support early joint health with added glucosamine and chondroitin

THE VX ADVANTAGE

Every Next Level recipe starts with premium proteins and is then elevated with our proprietary blend, VX Advantage™ — a scientifically formulated combination of vitamins, nutrients and prebiotics designed to support immunity, digestion, metabolism and whole body health.

  • SELENIUM YEAST

    Working together with Vitamin E to form a powerful antioxidant that supports a healthy immune system

  • MINERAL COMPLEXES

    Helps metabolic function; healthy coat, skin and paw pads; and supports immune response

  • PREBIOTICS

    Supports a healthy digestive system and a strong immune defense system

CONTROLLED MACROMINERLAS

The FDA allows pet foods to contain up to 2.5% of macrominerals, like calcium and phosphorus. While studies have shown excess calcium to be detrimental, most pet foods hit the maximum level. All Next Level products are formulated to contain significantly lower, precisely controlled amounts of these minerals — 1.7% or less — a big deal for the health of large and giant breed dogs.

KEY INGREDIENTS

Our strategy is simple. Use the best ingredients, source locally when we can, and deliver science-driven nutrition for science-fueled performance.

HYDROLYZED CHICKEN

Hydrolyzed chicken is a premium, easily digestible protein that is broken down into small digestible pieces. Gentle on sensitive stomachs, it helps to reduce risk of food sensitivities and allergic reactions.

PEA PROTEIN

Pea protein is a clean, plant-based protein source that contributes to a balanced, high protein formula — helps to build strong muscles and provide lasting energy.

CHICKEN FAT

Chicken fat is a nutrient-dense energy source rich in essential fatty acids, supporting healthy skin, a shiny coat, and overall vitality—ideal for a balanced, performance-focused diet.

DEBONED MEAT

Deboned meat provides natural, highly digestible protein to support lean muscle growth. Its rich flavor and nutrient density enhance both taste and nutrition.

BROWN RICE

Brown rice is a wholesome, easy-to-digest whole grain that provides steady energy and is rich in fiber and B vitamins—supporting digestive health and overall well-being.

CANOLA OIL

Canola oil is a clean, plant-based source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that supports skin health, a shiny coat, and overall vitality.

MENHADEN FISH MEAL

Menhaden fish meal is a high-quality protein rich in amino acids and omega-3s, supporting brain, heart, and coat health while providing sustainable nutrition.

GRAIN SORGHUM

Grain sorghum is a naturally gluten-free whole grain that delivers sustained energy and is rich in fiber, antioxidants, and essential nutrients—supporting digestive health and overall wellness.

BLOOD MEAL

Blood meal is a concentrated source of high-quality animal protein, rich in essential amino acids that supports muscle development, performance and recovery.

COMMITTED TO MAKING THE BEST DOG FOOD

We’re an independently owned company. We aren’t driven by an executive board or even our bottom line. Our passion for the pet food industry — and delivering the most nutrition for the best value to pet owners — guides every decision.


We’re proud of our history. We’ve already built one national dog food company from the ground up. But our passion for creating the best pet nutrition possible meant we had to keep moving forward. When you open a bag of Next Level Super Premium Pet Food, you’re getting nutrition created from decades of experience.


It’s common sense, science-driven pet nutrition that builds whole body health from the inside-out. And it’s everything we hoped it would be.

We’re doing this because we believe it’s the right thing to do. We love our pets. And we’re going to make the best dog food that we know how to make.
