About EarthPup

EarthPup was started in 2019 by Lucy Cullen, an award-winning environmentalist, sustainability expert, and bonafide dog lover. Working in restaurant sustainability through her first venture, Terus, she noticed the true impact of food waste in Canada on an every-day level. From there, Lucy combined her passion for sustainability and dedication to helping dogs alongside her partner Adam Alguire, an acclaimed Toronto chef. Alongside a vet, Adam used his expertise in food management to help formulate recipes that would be healthy for pups, use simple ingredients, and would also address the food waste issue in Canada. Both Lucy and Adam’s time spent in restaurants planted the seed for creating products inspired by restaurant menus so pups could enjoy the foodie life too! To date, EarthPup has diverted over 1,300lbs of food waste from landfill and in 2020 became Canada's first Certified Plastic Negative pet food company in partnership with RePurpose Global. Today, EarthPup has grown to expand the product line, creating more opportunities for food waste reduction in Canada, and grown their partnerships with rescue organizations to help rescue dogs in need find more homes than ever.
