Spot & Tango makes ready-to-serve, human-grade meals personalized to dogs' nutritional needs through a subscription model. Founded in 2018, the company sells fresh and "fresh dry" formats, including its UnKibble™ line introduced in 2020. All recipes are formulated by animal nutritionists, use fresh whole ingredients, exclude common artificial additives, and are minimally processed and cooked at low heat. The service grew over 250% in 2021 and has delivered more than 15 million meals since launch. Spot & Tango plans to use new capital to advance R&D, expand its product offering, introduce a grain-free Cod & Salmon recipe, and scale supply chain and operations. The company also launched a program in 2022 that donates high-quality meals to shelters and rescues to support dogs awaiting adoption. Spot & Tango is a direct-to-consumer pet food company that launched in 2018 making fresh, customized wet dog food and has now introduced UnKibble, a Fresh Dry line. UnKibble uses a Fresh Dry process that mixes whole ingredients, forms bite-sized pieces and gently heats them in a vacuum chamber to remove water and pathogens without extracting nutritional value; bags are then sealed to remove oxygen and keep the product fresh. Subscriptions for UnKibble start at $9/week and are offered in Beef & Barley, Chicken & Brown Rice, and Duck & Salmon, with a scooper portioned to each dog's serving. The company has delivered more than 1 million meals and says it has quadrupled the size of the business in the last six months. Spot & Tango ships in bulk to delivery partners using recyclable and compostable materials as part of an eco-conscious approach. The founder and CEO describes the company as building a health and wellness platform for pet parents, and Spot & Tango plans to expand its product formats and offerings.
