We are honored
And proud of the recipes we've created and the food we make. We are solely committed to helping pets live longer, happier, healthier lives. "Love Them Longer" it's what we all want with our furry companions and what 5 Element Food Therapy hopes to support.
These pet parents seem to think we're doing pretty good...

Taco + Kim
She knows what's good
Taco LOVES her 5 Element Food Therapy fresh food supplements! She stands in front of the refrigerator to remind us that they’re in there before we put her bowl down. She is more energetic and all-around happier when she consistently gets her Fire Element formula!
K9 Dexter + Officer Armando
Working Hard for Working Dogs
K9 Dexter and I have been partners for approximately four years now. When I first got Dexter, he was 15 months old. At three years old, Dexter started having problems with both of his elbows. He would limp and appeared to be in pain at the end of the week. Our Vet informed us that Dexter had tendinitis in both elbows and recommended I lessen his work load. I met Sharon a few months later when she introduced the toppers and bison broth to us. Dexter has been using the topper and broth everyday since then. Dexter has not shown any signs of having problems with his elbows, he gets three workouts everyday and he loves the taste of the food. I want to personally thank Sharon for helping Dexter heal. She is a very caring person and routinely checks in on us to see if there is anything else we need.


Stella + Jori + Nancy
Healthy Weight Achieved
It was summer of 2019 when we took our 4 year old rescue dog, Stella rose, for her annual check up. Our Vet had previously informed us that he felt Stella was getting over weight. This time our vet said it was very critical that Stella lose 6 pounds. We tried some different foods with no success. I finally reached out to Sharon at 5 Element Food Therapy for help. It was October 2019 and by June of 2020 Stella had lost the 6 pounds needed for her small body!!! Our vet was very happy and so is Stella! She has more energy and doesn’t sleep all day!!! Plus we know she is getting the proper nutrition now for a long and healthy life!!!


Zoe + Adrienne
Itchy No More
Thank you for saving my cat, Zoe! After a year of having Zoe, we noticed she was losing her hair, was scabby and scratched relentlessly. We took her to the vet and found out she had allergies, but could not afford the tests to find out which type. For about a year she continued with the scratching. She had licked and chewed all of her hair off, except for a mohawk that she couldn’t reach. We started her on 5 Element Food Therapy supplements and there is no more biting, scratching, scabby, bare bottom, mohawk Zoe! Her hair is growing, she is happy, she plays, we can pick her up, pet kiss her. It is a beautiful thing!
Spike + Melinda
Moving Along Nicely
I have noticed that Spike is having better digestion. But since he’s been on the 5 Element Pet Food Therapy diet, a few weeks ago I started noticing that he jumps up on the bed more easily!!!


Sliema + Kristy
Go, Sliema, Go!
My dog Sliema is a very active pup and needs a high protein food that can keep her lean as well as give her the energy she needs. I feed her fresh food 5 Element toppers over her kibble every evening for dinner. As soon as I take the container out of the refrigerator, she sits next to her food bowl with much anticipation of her dinner. I have to mix it up so that she will eat it slowly. I have noticed that her stool is firmer and her coat is extra shiny. Her favorite treats are the Bison Brownies. Sliema has her AKC Novice Tricks ribbon and the Bison Brownies are the best high value treats that I use to teach her tricks!
Buddy + Allison
Appetite. Check.
Buddy is LOVING the duck topper!!! Eating in a way I haven’t seen him eat in awhile .


Deven + Christine
Hard to Say Who's Happier
I can’t say enough positive things about 5 Element Food Therapy Toppers, Seasoning and Treats!!! My Great Dane Deven is prone to skin and digestive allergies, so I need to be really thoughtful about what I feed him. He has been eating 5EFT for over a year now, and not only is his skin and coat beautiful, he hasn’t had any digestive issues at all! He literally waits for me to add the 5EFT Meal Topper before he will start eating, and I can’t keep the Bison Brownies and Turkey Treats stocked. He absolutely loves them, and I also give them out as gifts to my pet parent friends (I have become very popular with their pups!).
It’s so wonderful to have holistic food and treat options that Deven likes, are actually good for him, and that I don’t have to cook myself. I love that it’s fresh and made with real food – no guessing on the ingredients. Deven is really flourishing, and is one happy Great Dane!!
Deio + Zen + Kim
Krazy Kats Kalm
I have four cats. The youngest one Deio my daughters cat, who has been with us for 2 weeks, this poor guy is very anxious and runs around my house like its the end of the world. Rainy my female gets upset and chases him. It causes stress amongst my other kitties. I gave them Zen [broth] last night and this morning, every one of them are calm, including Deio.
I have to say this product works!!


Nala + Ruby
We Tried Everything
For most of Nala’s life, we have struggled with her eating habits. She would go days without eating a meal. She would even turn her nose to a grilled steak! We have taken her to numerous veterinarians, expressing our concern.
Nutritionists, behaviorists, and specialists have all ruled out major diseases or problems that may result in her lack of eating. Many have told me that, “She won’t starve herself. Don’t let her be picky.” or “Huskies are notorious for being picky eaters. You need to be persistent and don’t let her take advantage of you”.
I couldn’t bear seeing my pup deprive herself of food for 4-5 days at a time! We began feeding her “table food”, which she also denied! I was truly at my wit’s end. We’ve tried hand-feeding, spoon-feeding, using a Kong, etc. Nothing worked.
When Nala was 10 months old, she began having seizures. This was the scariest time of my life. No one had an answer or solution. Our lowest point was having to force-feed her spoonfuls of food. Mealtime was always what we dreaded every day. It was overly stressful and frustrating. It made me question my ability to be a dog owner!
I have bought every bag of dog food from every pet store. I’ve tried online dog food subscriptions that ship out cooked food! We’ve tried a raw food diet. Every food you can think of, we have tried! Luckily, we have managed to find one specific bag of kibble that has kept her eating for the past year, but she still has episodes where she has no interest in it!
It wasn’t until I stumbled upon 5 Element Food Therapy. I was definitely skeptical at first because of my lack of success in the past. I started out with the Supplement Toppers, and I couldn’t believe it! Nala licked the bowl clean after mixing in the Chicken Recipe with her kibble. Then, we tried Bone Broths, her favorite is the Bison one. We’ve expanded our options and have tried the Shakers which is an excellent treat to supplement your food. You just shake it on and serve!
My girl, Nala, gets so excited at mealtime when she sees 5 Element Food Therapy items. Now, we have tried nearly EVERY option from this brand and everything has been “lip-smackingly delicious”, as Nala would say! I also LOVE that every ingredient in 5 Element Food Therapy is healthy, organic, and easy to pronounce. There’s NO preservatives, NO fillers, and NO nonsense.
As someone who has been in the dog industry for many years, I know the truth of many commercial dog food brands on the market. I will proudly say, that 5 Element Food Therapy is the best option to feed your loved ones.
In the past few months that we have been using this brand, Nala is healthier and happier. You can physically see that my pup is livelier, healthier, and absolutely gorgeous. Everyone always asks how I get her coat so beautiful, and I can attest that it’s from all the amazing ingredients in her food. Not only are the options delicious, but the recipes and ingredients have been carefully and thoroughly planned to provide the best of the best for your 4-legged family.
Whether you have a picky eater or not, your dog’s health and happiness will thank you for choosing 5 Element Food Therapy.
Bandit + Ally
Bandit Got His Groove
My baby Bandit is an almost 10 year old Catahoula Hound and Australian Shep. He has always been a bit weird, along with general anxious habits, but used to absolutely, uncontrollably shake at any loud bass, tick, click or pop where he would crawl into my lap and wouldn’t stop shaking💔 It would really break my heart to see him like this because there was not much I could do besides comfort him or talk over the noises.

5 Element food therapy is a game. changer. Holy grail. It has changed his moods immensely for the better I wish I could’ve found it sooner!!
I started him off with just the fire toppers and shaker and within one day I saw a HUGE difference in his confidence. He would actually not be glued to my side 24/7, exploring and smelling on his own, and he even got a little strut in his walk🕺🏽
Now, when the fire broth was just introduced I got it without thinking twice and let me tell you, the first night I gave him probably about a 1/4 cup as a snack after his dinner with the topper and shaker, a half hour later this boy was chasing his tail!!!!! Zoomies like I hadn’t seen him have in forever he was darting back and forth running around having the time of his life!
Even now I’m still catching him do stuff I haven’t seen since he was young like digging! (Not in the yard of coarse lol) Mind you is a very chill dog, but he has puppy energy- and mentality again!! He’s more confident, comfortable, obedient, and visibly happy and that makes me ecstatic and SO relieved🙏🏻 I can’t even remember the last time he has the shakes!! And on top of that it’s all holistic!! No drugs or additives! Just using healing, organic, naturally derived, super FOOD!! And I have NOBODY to thank besides Sharon and 5 Element Food Therapy ❤️
Thank you sooo much a billion times from me and Bandit :)
Also he looooves the yogurts too 😇

HANKY PANKY + ALY
Happy Parents, Happy Babies
First of all, THANK YOU 5Element! When Hanky Panky came into my life the anxiety of trying to find good trusted products was difficult but because of 5Element it’s been so easy to supplement him in ways that improve his overall health and happiness!
Since using the Duck Broth as a supplement for breakfast and dinner Hank has really healed from the flaky dry skin and bumps from seasonally allergies! The improvements in his sneezing and itching has improved as well too, I saw changes just from a week of use too!
It’s so nice to have products where Sharon and her holistic vet take the time, care and passion into making and formulating products that not only benefit the animals but really make us, the parents happy to see such happy healthy babies!
So thank you once again, 5Element! I couldn’t be more happier knowing that Hank and Ziggy will be healthier and happy with his supplements! I would highly recommend to anyone who is trying to find a natural product that actually is LOVED by your babies and WORKS great!
Cosmo the Wonder Dog + Julie
Sharon I want to thank you. If it weren’t for your suggestion of changing his food, we wouldn’t be enjoying our little love ~ our wonder dog ~ for as long as we have. Several month ago, we noticed that our puppy was not eating and losing weight. So, I called you, and you suggested we change his food. We switched his kibble and added your food topper, the delicious bone broths, and the frozen pumpkin yogurts. He loved them all! He started eating again with gusto, and we were hopeful that all would be well again in our world.
However, his vet ran several tests, and what we learned gave us heartbreak. On September 1, 2020, our wonder dog was diagnosed with stage five leukemia, the most aggressive level. We were told that his life expectancy would be between nine days and a few weeks. We did not expect this diagnosis at all, since he had always been active, feisty, independent, and extremely affectionate.
Well, it is now mid-November, and while we are blessed with his loving company, he is slowing down. We are extremely grateful that he is still with us. I am sure that his extra time is because of his change in diet. A new diet and lots of love....this recipe has been our success. We are blessed to know about this nutritious food that has added to his longevity. It has kept him strong, active, vital, engaged, and loving. Although he is in decline, we give him all our love and good yummies. We are enjoying every moment we have with him.
If and when we bring another pup into our family, we’ll only feed him the best of food, and we’ll always keep him on 5 element food therapy. I only wish we had known earlier how important nutrition is to our pets. My hope is that many more people learn of this nutritious food for their pets. I should share with you that a pet store in Berkeley highly recommended your broths. So naturally I picked some up. After all we can’t have enough and on the ready!
Seiko + Marie
[We sent Marie home with a sample of one of our Supplement Toppers}
He LOVED it.... he started to drool before we gave him the command to eat it.
Ziggy + Aly
Dry cat nails? SAY NO MORE!
5 Elements duck broth and bison broth does wonders to cat nails and even fur! My cat Ziggy has always suffered with dry nails, anytime I would cut his nails they would always chip or crack making it difficult for Ziggy to be comfortable having his nails trimmed (not to mention how picky he is with everything) Ziggy loves his broth for breakfast and dinner, it’s almost a miracle how fast he was okay to transition to his supplements, everytime he finished he would just lick his chops for more!
Thank you, 5Elements for caring about our fur babies for putting effort, love and passion to improve their overall health and happiness! I couldn’t have done it without you guys!
