Our Story
Rooted in love. Born from loss. Made with purpose
Chika was our first baby.
A rescue black Lab with endless energy, the loudest bark, and a habit of weaving figure-8s between our legs when she was truly happy - like she was drawing infinity signs with her whole body.
We lost her two years ago. And in our grief, we started asking harder questions. Not with suspicion, but with real curiosity - what were we actually feeding her?
That search led us back to our roots. To the Indian pantry we grew up with. To turmeric in warm milk, fennel seeds after dinner - not wellness trends, just wisdom passed down that worked.
Rooted Bites is what happened when those two worlds - an Indian upbringing and a love for dogs - finally collided.

A kolam drawn at the threshold of Indian homes, the infinity sign Chika drew with her body, and the gentle curve of her nose.
