From Our Kitchen to Their Bowl, That’s Amore!
OUR STORY
Welcome to Cucciolo Cucina (pronounced: koo chee low – koo chee na) Italian for Puppy Kitchen.
We shortened it to CC Puppy Kitchen —where the Italian love of fresh, wholesome food meets the joy of nourishing our beloved pets. We’re dedicated to creating dog food that’s crafted with the same care and quality found in any Italian home.
Our founder Gabri’s journey began with a mission to solve her dogs’ ongoing digestive issues and that unmistakable poop odor from poor-quality food. Like most pet owners, she had been relying on standard kibble from the pet store, but after a bit of research, she found that it fell short of the nutritious standards she wanted for her dogs.
Switching to fresh food made all the difference—no more stomach problems and a big reduction in odors. However, she quickly realized that not all “chicken” was created equal, and she wanted to know exactly what was going into her dogs' meals.
Growing up in an Italian kitchen, she remembered the simple joy of fresh ingredients, vibrant herbs, and family meals prepared with love. So, she set out to create CC Puppy Kitchen, where every recipe is crafted with the same intention and care.
Made in small batches, CC Puppy Kitchen meals use only high-quality meats, wholesome grains, and antioxidant-rich fruits and veggies—all without unnecessary additives. Each bite is a celebration of real ingredients and balanced nutrition, with flavors dogs crave.
At farmers’ markets across Central Florida, we get to meet our community face-to-face. We invite you to stop by, chat with us about our ingredients, and see the passion we pour into every jar. For us, food is more than just nourishment; it’s a way to build connections, share our Italian roots, and treat our pets like family.
