What happens when you mix a couple of data analysts, food allergies, and dogs together? You get yumwoof! The job of data analysts is to solve a problem; they do research, collect facts and data, and use what they have discovered to find the solution to the problem. In this case, the problem concerned health issues that could be associated with the food a dog eats.
Sometimes, it takes a personal incident to get the ball rolling, and in this case it was food allergies that the yumwoof! founders had been experiencing with their dog. We saw first hand how our French Bulldogs would have issues with different foods, and it can sometimes be difficult to find a food your dog can handle without problems. When Mouseish started having skin problems, we had to go to our vet to try to find a food that would help her, and it took several tries before we had success.
Because what a dog eats directly affects his or her health, you want to be sure that your pet’s food is of the highest quality. Remember, too, that a healthy pet is much more likely to enjoy a longer life, so the dog food you purchase is of great importance. yumwoof! could be the food that will not only provide all the nutrients your dog needs, but also help to maintain a high standard of health.
Is a Personalized Diet Needed?
We are all familiar with the expression ‘one size fits all’, but does it, especially as pertains to a dog’s diet? Dogs are probably the most diverse mammalian species on earth, there are literally hundreds of breeds of dog, and each breed is special in its own way. The energy requirements of an active breed like German Shepherds might be different than that of an English Bulldog, even if their weights are similar.
To address these differences, yumwoof! Specializes in meal plans designed for your dog’s individual needs.
In addition to breed differences, there are also differences within a breed. Everyone knows that the nutritional needs of a puppy is different from that of an adult or senior dog. And even two adult dogs of the same breed might benefit from a tailored diet. Our Gabby loved to do ‘zoomies’ through the house sometimes, but Aster preferred to lounge in her bed most of the time. Because Gabby was burning through more calories than Aster, giving Aster the same amount of food as Gabby would tend to pack on the pounds.
Health issues also play a part in what kind of diet a dog needs. Just like people, dogs can suffer from different conditions that could well have a real bearing on their diet. yumwoof! Has taken all of these variables into account so that they can provide as complete and perfect a diet for your dog, or dogs, as is humanly possible.

I already established that yumwoof! was started by data analysts and this shows in how they formulated their yumwoof! recipes.

Perfect Kibble comes in two different flavors that should delight the taste buds of the pickiest dog:

Skin irritation and a dull coat can also be a sign that something is going wrong inside your pup. If your dog likes beef, this may be the answer to some of their allergy or inflammation problems.
-
Perfect Kibble Coconut Chicken. While beef is appealing to most dogs, some dogs prefer the milder flavor of chicken. To accommodate these dogs, yumwoof! has cooked up a delicious recipe that should have your dog eager for their bowl to be put down.
Any dog food is only as good as what goes into it, and this is where yumwoof! really stands out. Dogs are not strict carnivores like cats, they lean heavily towards the carnivore side, but also enjoy fruits and vegetables. Just take a look at what yumwoof! Puts into their air-dried dog food:
