I am a DIY’er and have been prepping meals for my GSD for 6 years. Normally, I source proteins from different places & have to search for a variety of organs. Now, I can just add vegetable, fruit and dairy to these mixes to make complete meals, so prep time has been cut in half! She especially likes the chunked option. She told me so.
Loved the duck!
Tank has loved everything so far. I was super impressed with the duck! Well let's be honest... we love it all. Not to mention... quick shipping too 💕
Perfect for our raw transition!
We were new to raw and the simple but still complete blends from Viva Raw were a life savior! No need to measure the meat amounts because it was already done! Atlas loves it and it’s the main part of his meals!
We're proud to be sourcing high quality, USDA-inspected meat from smaller farms. These are the same farms that stock your local Whole Foods & favorite restaurants. We only work with farms that never administer hormones & antibiotics (a huge step up from conventional) & are certified humane through third-party audits like G.A.P. or the American Humane Program. By not relying on chemicals, our farmers focus on providing high quality food and a clean environment to raise healthy, happy animals.
We grind, mix & package all of your pup's meals in our kitchens—where we are the first and only pet food made in our facility that also produces human food. And you better believe we’re proud of it. Everything is made in small batches (each package is hand-labeled & checked for quality) and tested for pathogens, because your pup deserves the freshest food from farm-to-bowl.
Feeding amounts are based on your pet's weight, age, and activity level. We recommend checking out our calculator to determine your pet's personalized feeding recommendations using Viva—we worked closely with our nutritionists & used the latest research to develop these!
This will vary depending on your pet's size, activity level & age. On average, our food will cost $5-7 / day for a 30lb dog & $2.50 / day for a 10lb cat when feeding a variety of our proteins. To determine your exact costs, we recommend filling out our short quiz for your pup.
Nope! Just thaw and feed 🙌
Both our Dog and Cat Recipes are Complete & Balanced. We worked with multiple vets & nutritionists to develop these recipes over the course of an entire year & lab-tested over 50 unique whole food ingredients in the process. This rigorous process at Viva is to ensure that our meals not only meet minimum nutrient requirements, but go above and beyond to improve the overall health of your pet with superfoods like shiitake mushrooms or blue mussels.
If you’re feeding a puppy (<1 year old), check out our Puppy Recipe instead for optimized nutrition during the growth stage! You can always reach out to our Nutrition Experts for more information about the right food for your pets!
We ship to all of the US & offer FREE shipping for all orders over $250! (not applicable to Alaska, Hawaii & certain areas of Texas & Montana due to coverage). For orders under $250, we offer a flat-fee rate between $10-20 depending on your zone.
We ship orders M-W each week and you'll receive a tracking number once your package ships! We always ship out orders the next available shipping day.
Nope, not at all! While we recommend subscribing so that your shipments come automatically & you never run out of food, you can always order one-time boxes too (just choose this option on the confirmation page)!
