Why Gently Cooked Dog Food Is the Healthiest Choice for Your Dog

When it comes to feeding our dogs, every pet parent wants to provide the best. The shift toward healthier, fresher options has led to the rise of gently cooked dog food—a balanced and highly digestible alternative to traditional kibble and raw diets.

At CORE K9, we believe your pup deserves real food that supports long-term health and vitality. But what exactly is gently cooked dog food, and why is it better for your dog? Let’s dive in.

What Is Gently Cooked Dog Food?

Gently cooked dog food is made with fresh, human-grade ingredients that are cooked at lower temperatures. This method preserves more nutrients and flavor while eliminating harmful bacteria.

Unlike kibble, which is processed at high heat and packed with preservatives, gently cooked meals are whole-food based and minimally processed—just like the meals you prepare for your family.

At CORE K9, every batch is cooked with love. We blend premium proteins, wholesome grains, and fresh vegetables, then cook them gently to retain their nutritional value. The result? A meal your dog will not only love but thrive on.

The CORE K9 Philosophy: Real Ingredients, Real Results

What sets CORE K9 apart from other fresh dog food brands is our commitment to quality, transparency, and canine health. Each of our recipes includes:

• High-quality proteins like beef, chicken, turkey, and lamb

• Whole grains such as barley, lentils, quinoa, and sweet potatoes

• Fresh vegetables for vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants

• A carefully selected vitamin and mineral mix for balanced nutrition

We don’t believe in fillers, by-products, or artificial preservatives—just real food, made fresh and delivered frozen.
