About Us:

Redbarn Pet Products was co-founded in 1996 by lifelong friends Jeff Baikie and Howie Bloxam, who met as 12-year-olds on a hockey rink in Canada. Inspired by a shared passion for wholesome, high-quality dog food, they built a company that has grown to a family of 500 members, offering over 200 foods, treats, and chews. As a family-owned business for over 25 years, Redbarn’s culture is rooted in the belief that they are more than just a team—they are a family.
