Products

[edit]

Over the years, Dog Chow has expanded its product line to cater to the varying needs of dogs at different life stages and with specific dietary requirements.

In addition to the original Dog Chow formula, the brand now includes:

Puppy Chow: Formulated for puppies to support their growth and development.

Senior Chow: Tailored for older dogs with age-related nutritional needs.[2]

Healthy Weight Formula: Designed for dogs that require weight management.

High-Performance Chow: Created for active dogs needing higher energy levels.

The brand has also extended its offerings to include pet foods for other animals, such as Cat Chow and Kitten Chow.

Due to the brand's growing popularity, a string of commercials were aired in Canada in 1962. The commercials introduced Jim Henson's brainchild, Rowlf the Dog.[3]
