Frequently asked questions
Who makes Milk-Bone pet food?
Milk-Bone is manufactured by Big Heart Pet Brands (J.M. Smucker).
Where is Milk-Bone made?
Milk-Bone pet food is made in US.
When was Milk-Bone founded?
Milk-Bone was founded in 1908.
Is Milk-Bone WSAVA-aligned?
Milk-Bone is not on our WSAVA-aligned shortlist. That doesn't automatically mean the food is poor quality — many strong brands haven't pursued WSAVA recognition — but it means we lack independent confirmation of feeding-trial validation and on-staff veterinary nutritionist staffing.
Has Milk-Bone ever been recalled?
No Milk-Bone products match any FDA recall in our tracked feed. Two caveats worth stating plainly: our feed covers FDA recall notices from late 2025 onward, so a recall older than that would not appear here; and brand matching is deliberately conservative, so a recall naming a parent company or a co-manufacturer rather than Milk-Bone itself may not be linked. For a definitive answer, check the FDA's own recall database.
How does Milk-Bone score in our analysis?
Milk-Bone averages 76/100 across 33 products in our catalog. Individual product scores combine ingredient quality, AAFCO compliance, and controversial-additive severity. See the methodology page for the full algorithm.
