Is Health Extension Made in USA?

Verdict · checked Oct 23, 2026
Mostly yes
Health Extension's FAQ says "Most of our products are made in the United States, with all ingredients sourced from the U.S. or approved countries." That includes its dry dog and cat foods, and many of its treats and grooming products say "Made in the USA" on their own product pages. The company also states "We do not source any ingredients from China."
| Product line | Made in | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Dry dog and cat food (Original, Little Bites, Lite, Grain Free recipes) | USA (city not stated) | Made in USA |
| Treats, freeze-dried meal mixers and ARI grooming sprays and shampoos | USA | Made in USA |
| GEO canned food | Canada | Imported |
| Gently Cooked pouches | Thailand | Imported |
| Yak Cheese Chew | Nepal | Imported |
There are clear exceptions, and Health Extension names them itself: "Our GEO cans are made in Canada" and "our Gently Cooked pouches are produced in Thailand." Its Yak Cheese Chew is described as "crafted in the heart of Nepal." Ingredients can also come from approved countries outside the US, and the brand does not name the city where its dry kibble is made.
How we checked: On 2026-10-23 we read the Health Extension FAQ and the origin lines on its current product pages on healthextension.com, including the Original Chicken and Brown Rice, Puppy Little Bites, freeze-dried, treat and ARI grooming pages.

About Health Extension
Health Extension makes most of its pet food in the US, including the dry dog and cat kibble we list, but its own FAQ names imported lines: GEO cans from Canada and Gently Cooked pouches from Thailand.
What Health Extension makes in the US
Health Extension's FAQ says "Most of our products are made in the United States, with all ingredients sourced from the U.S. or approved countries," many of them in the European Union. It also states "We do not source any ingredients from China." Its dry dog and cat foods fall under the US-made group, along with many treats, freeze-dried meal mixers and ARI grooming sprays and shampoos whose pages say "Made in the USA."
The company is based in Hauppauge, New York. A pet-food trade report on its move there said all Health Extension dog food was made at a single Hauppauge facility. The brand's own pages do not name the plant today. The Original Chicken and Brown Rice dog and cat recipes and the Little Bites small-breed food we list are dry kibble.
The imported lines, in the brand's words
Health Extension is open about its exceptions. "Our GEO cans are made in Canada," its FAQ says, and its Gently Cooked pouches "are made in Thailand." The Yak Cheese Chew is described as crafted in Nepal.
If you want a US-made Health Extension product, stick to the dry food and the treats or grooming items that print "Made in the USA" on their own page. Ingredients in any of them may come from approved countries outside the US.
