Two Paws Up From Grizzly!
“Mealtime is so much more fun with A Pup Above! Grizzly can sometimes be a picky eater, but watching him chow down his food when I add this to his meal is just so satisfying. Thanks for making mealtime so easy and delicious for us!””

Love Love Love!!
“The Cubies make it so easy to feed on the go. We’ve used them for training or when we’re out and about during mealtime, and love that we’re still getting everything we love from the fresh recipe. Kirby gets so excited when the Cubies box comes out! He knows he’s in for something special.”
My babies love this food. They haven’t had any digestive issues, I.e. flatulence, that they’ve been experiencing with other brands I’ve tried. If there larger sizes, I’ll be ordering.
The Cubies cooking process can be broken down to 3 simple steps! First gently cooked sous-vide (just like our frozen food), then diced into Cubies and slowly air dried. Slowly air drying our food allows us to remove moisture from the Cubies without applying heat to them. This allows us to maintain the nutrient profile of the ingredients while making the Cubies a shelf stable product. Pawfect as a full meal, meal mixer, or treat!
Can I feed both the Cubies & Frozen Gently Cooked?
Absolutely! The Cubies and frozen Gently Cooked are the pawfect combo! Our Chief Pup Officer Lola loves having variety in her meals, so she eats the gently cooked with Cubies for an extra crunch. Feeding both in the same meal, or even rotating the Cubies with the Gently Cooked is a good way to keep picky pups interested in their meal times.
What is the texture of the Cubies?
The Cubies are high protein, low carb crunchy cubes that work well as a meal, topper, or healthy treat. Chief Pup Officer Lola loves having extra crunch added to her frozen Gently Cooked, which is what inspired the Cubies! If your pup prefers a softer food, we suggest soaking them in warm water or nutritious bone broth! Our frozen Gently Cooked is a soft texture and may also be a great fit.
How do Cubies Compare to Other Dry Foods?
The Cubies are gently cooked sous-vide like our frozen patties then slowly air dried, which preserves nutrients and makes Cubies much less processed than other dry foods, such as kibble. Compared to freeze-dried, Cubies are 50% less in the cost to feed. All in all, you're getting a dry food that's much healthier than kibble and more affordable than freeze-dried.
Where Do You Make Your Food?
We cook up our meals in USDA inspected, human grade kitchens according to USDA standards. Each recipe is gently cooked sous-vide to maximize nutrient retention, enhance flavor, and deliver a high meat protein food your pup is guaranteed to love. The Cubies are then diced and air dried, delivering the flavor of fresh and the convenience of a scoop!
How do You Formulate Your Recipes?
We work with top food scientists and vet nutritionists to make the healthiest pup food possible. Our vet nutritionists carefully formulate each recipe to be 100% complete and balanced according to AAFCO standards for adult maintenance.
