What's a Wag Tantrum?

We are glad you asked.

Great question. A Wag Tantrum is when your dog wags its tail so excitedly, its whole body wags with it.

Whether caused by their favorite toy, favorite human, or favorite meal, it’s what we live for as pet parents. And our company's whole reason for being—to keep’em waggin’ with freshly made, organic meals packed with human-grade whole foods.

Where it all began

Discover the story of our founders who embarked on a fresh food journey.

Wag Tantrum was created by Founder Barbara Marshall as a desperate attempt to find nutritious, tasty food to help keep her precious dog, Lily, alive beyond the devastating cancer diagnosis at six months old.

Lily had a very touchy tummy and often refused to eat traditional dog food, knowing she would be miserable after. Diving deep into research, Barbara quickly discovered reliable animal nutrition that isn’t sponsored by a huge food conglomerate was hard to come by. Her main takeaway? Like humans, dogs are what they eat. Barbara knew the only way to extend Lily’s life was to develop fresh, nutritious food to feed her heart and soul. Thus, Wag Tantrum was born. 

Lily soon became the official taste tester. And over the years, the perfect recipes were hand-crafted for each stage of her life. Lily lived out her days in comfort with lots of love, but her legacy lives on in Wag Tantrum!

"After seeing a rapid improvement in Lily's health, my mission became to transform dog food so that pups from all over can thrive."

Founder and Lily's mom, Barbara Marshall

We love your pup as much as you do.

Today, Barbara and her sister, Lisa, still make every small batch from scratch in a human grade kitchen USDA approved using certified USDA organic ingredients, including pharmaceutical grade nutrients, sourced from North America. When they ship from their kitchen to yours, they really mean it.
