Butchers’ craft
when the idea for Terra Canis was born in 2005, founder Birgitta Ornau had a great vision: to produce dog food with 100% verifiable human-grade quality of all ingredients in order to offer dogs almost the same quality as they would find in the wild. The Schäbitz butcher's shop - a traditional Bavarian company - shared their vision of high-quality butchery products for dogs and received a special licence from the government of Upper Bavaria to produce dog menus in a pure human-grade company. This signalled the start of the first dog food made from 100% human-grade quality ingredients.
To date, Terra Canis has not only revolutionised the dog food market, but has also developed from a vision with a small team and a big mission into a medium-sized company with its own production facility just outside Munich. Here, a team of master butchers, journeyman butchers, master chefs, journeyman bakers and a journeyman butcher apprentice work day in, day out to fill your pet's bowl with the best quality and genuine butchery.
With decades of experience in the food trade and great attention to detail, our team of master butchers and their skills ensure the unmistakable quality and incomparable flavour of our dog menus. And you can smell and see this every time you open a can of Terra Canis.
