Know Your Pet Better. From the Inside Out.

While we're thrilled that you're considering Best Friend Bioscience for your new puppy, our products are specifically formulated for adult dogs aged 12 months and older.

Once your puppy celebrates their first birthday, we'd be delighted to help you transition them to our products for optimal health, happiness, and longevity.

At Best Friend Bioscience, food safety is our top priority.

Our recipes are carefully crafted to meet the standards set by AAFCO's Dog Food Nutrient Profiles.

We use High-Pressure Processing (HPP), a food pasteurization method that effectively eliminates harmful bacteria like E. coli, listeria, and salmonella, while preserving the raw integrity of the food.

To further protect the beneficial ingredients, we encapsulate the prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics, ensuring they remain intact through the HPP process.

Our facilities are FDA registered, providing assurance that our dog food is produced in a safe, compliant environment.

For our Transition Packs, we've included clear percentage guidelines on the packaging to help you safely transition your dog from their old food to their new BFB food over the course of two weeks.

Here are the percentages that we have listed on the Transition Pouches:

• Days 1 to 4: 25% Best Friend Bioscience food, 75% old food.
• Days 5 to 8: 50% Best Friend Bioscience food, 50% old food.
• Days 9 to 12: 75% Best Friend Bioscience food, 25% old food.
• Day 13+: 100% Best Friend Bioscience food.

This gradual transition minimizes digestive upset and supports your dog's overall health. Just follow the instructions, and you're all set!

Your Best Friend Bioscience Gut Transition™ Test Kit includes 3 fresh stool sample collection tubes.

Barcodes are pre-scanned for your account. Please use the tubes in order.

Please take a photograph of the poop prior to collecting the sample and upload it to your account.

Collect the 3 samples according to the time frames below:

• Sample 1: Collect at the beginning of Week 1, before starting Best Friend Bioscience.
• Sample 2: Collect at the end of Week 4.
• Sample 3: Collect at the end of Week 8.

On each collection day, collect one spoonful of fresh stool from your dog's first bowel movement of the day.

Select the appropriate tube from the box.

Unscrew the tube cap and use the attached spoon to collect the sample.

Collect the sample from the middle/inside of the poop. This part has the most representative bacteria and microorganisms.

Return the spoon and material back into the tube and tighten the cap.

Shake to mix the contents until thoroughly blended.

Write the date that you took the sample in the marked date boxes inside the kit.

Place the tube back into the kit and store in a cool, dark, dry location until you are ready to return the samples together.

Once all samples have been collected, please register the date each sample was collected on the Best Friend Bioscience website.
