The Freshpet company, which produces the Homestyle Select and Deli Fresh brands of refrigerated dog food, now has bite sized version called "Freshpet Select Bites".
Freshpet Select Bites are the same foods found in the company's food rolls, but offering the convenience of "open and serve". No more having to slice up the rolls, removing the plastic, or having to seal up the unused portion.
The new bite-sized variety is found the same refrigerated section of pet food stores as you'd find the company's other products.
The name "Freshpet Select" will eventually replace the Homestyle Select brand, according to a company spokesperson.

K9 Genetics Corporation, based in Orange County, CA, announced that they're now accepting a limited number of pre-orders for what they're billing as the "World's first completely personalized diets for dogs".
The way it works is that you submit a sample of your dog's DNA, and a questionnaire asking you about your dog's breed, age, and weight, and K9 Genetics will run an analysis on the two to figure out the exact diet your dog should be on.
The idea is to identify potential diseases your dog is susceptible to, such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and then come up with a meal that doesn't wake these monsters from their sleep.
They've gone on to establish this as a new science called, "Nutrigenomics".
I'm curious to know how much of the diet plan is based on the DNA itself, versus the questionnaire you provide. DNA is just so "sexy" these days, that people seem to be forking over all kinds of money to take advantage of a variety of services. Obviously, there is a market for this kind of stuff.
K9 Genetics is only accepting reservations for 1,000 personalized diets at this time. So, you better take advantage now. I mean, you don't want to be on the outside looking in, right?
