Tuffy’s Pet Food

PetfulMay 28, 2023

♥ No recalls.

Tuffy’s pet food is a culmination of many different brand lines over time. Darrell Nelson started Pine Lakes Feed in 1947. His son, Kenny Nelson, started Tuffy’s Dog Food Company shortly thereafter. After 39 years, they expanded to premium lines and later organic lines.

Tuffy’s is manufactured in Minnesota by Tuffy’s Pet Foods, Inc. In 2015, the company expanded with a new $70 million, 130,000-square-foot manufacturing facility. Tuffy’s is family-owned and operated — and has been since it was founded in 1964. The company’s other brands include NutriSource, PureVita and Natural Planet.

Has Tuffy’s Pet Food Ever Been Recalled?

No. The Tuffy’s brand itself has never had a recall, according to our research. However, there was at least 1 recall of Nutrisca, another brand of pet food manufactured by Tuffy’s Pet Foods, Inc.
