Frequently asked questions

Who makes Nutro pet food?

Where is Nutro made?

Nutro pet food is made in US.

When was Nutro founded?

Nutro was founded in 1926.

Is Nutro WSAVA-aligned?

Nutro is not on our WSAVA-aligned shortlist. That doesn't automatically mean the food is poor quality — many strong brands haven't pursued WSAVA recognition — but it means we lack independent confirmation of feeding-trial validation and on-staff veterinary nutritionist staffing.

Has Nutro ever been recalled?

We haven't matched any Nutro products to current FDA recall records. Note that absence of matches isn't a guarantee of no recall history — older recalls may not be in the current feed.
