This guy just had the sharks eat dog food, evaluated his company at 11 million, has ZERO sales, and got Mark Cuban on board. Let this be proof anything is possible! lol!
I cant stand when someone claims to care about the earth and sustainability while promoting a premium product only a select few will be able to afford. It gives "If you have to ask the price, you dont belong here"
u can either do a little bit good for a lot of people; or a lot of good for a little bit of people. If u try to help everyone u wont be able to help anyone.
I'm a vet student, vets DO NOT recommend vegan foods. All vegan dog foods are linked to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a condition where the heart becomes enlarged and weak, leading to heart failure and fatal arrhythmias. While the exact cause is still being studied, findings suggest a link between diets high in legumes (like peas and lentils) and DCM.
@@Daniel-ui3zyno, hopefully it doesn’t take over considering if you actually take the time and read the comment you commented on, clearly supports this diet going away permanently
@@Daniel-ui3zy Wild Earth dog food has already been linked to cases of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) primarily due to its use of certain ingredients, particularly a high level of legumes and peas. The FDA has been investigating these links, and pet owners are advised to consult with veterinarians about the best diet for their dogs.
Pet food is like the beauty industry. Every Tom Dick and Harry tries to claim they know everything and starts a business they know nothing about. This dude is even taking it a step further calling himself a "biotech entrepreneur"? What a joke
Mark Cuban is here to encourage new entrepreneurs like us. When everyone is out and mark gave him very good deal even he could say $550 for 50% but he didn’t say this. Huge respect for him. We need more sharks like him. Thanks, Mark ❤
"New entrepreneurs like us" lol, no. If you were the one standing there pitching this exact product at this ridiculous valuation he'd laugh you out the door. He only invested because of the Ivy League name drops, the company's connections to Peter Thiel, the involvement of other high profile investors who are only accessible to people existing within a certain bubble.
Eh there’s really no need for dogs to be on a vegan diet and it’s actually difficult to make them thrive on it. They’re not true carnivores like cats, but it’s still more for the human than for the dog. Also, big brands like Purina and Royal Canin spend the most on research, so they’re always the safest bets. Anyhow, this company seems to be doing quite well now.
Gourmet pet food is one of the most common products that comes into Shark Tank, I'm not sure anything ever comes of them. Likewise for modular clothing.
I'm not an expert by any means, but it sounds like giving a dog a vegan diet is absolutely counterproductive to the wellbeing and happiness of the poor dog. Dogs love meat and it's actually good for them, I just don't get why someone would do that
It used to drive me crazy when super spaced out hippies would come into the supermarket I worked at in Northern California and buy Wysong vegan cat food. "I'm a vegan so should my cat." Animals are all different and require different diets. Pretending your pet is a human is really dangerous. There are some successful vegan animals out there, for example, gorillas, but that's because they adapted a digestive to break down tough plant material.
Update news 🗞️: Wild Earth has managed to release 14 products, feed tens of thousands of dogs, launch online and in retail nationwide, and sell over $42M worth of vegan dog foods. Mark Cuban was there to help this guy and he made it 🦈
Take me back to the days where 98% of pitches didn’t involve the same 3 buzzwords “vegan” this, “sustainable” this, “diversity” that. No wonder I stopped watching live.
....... People who say I am a beggar. Yes, I am a beggar. I have four children and my wife, and I am helpless. I opened the channel. This is a source of livelihood for me.

Sustainability comes at a cost
So basically this is a Whole Foods Market play or it's won't have a chance.
@@chrislim7976 I don’t remember the last time I was even NEAR a Whole Foods store. Several Walmarts in my immediate vicinity tho…
40$ for dog food is cheap... Goodluck finding healthy foods under 40

We're still very early in our vegan era but this will replace leading pet food eventually. I think he's just super early.

This guy is delusional 😂😂
Time will tell son
6:44 Kevin asking the real questions... how are those dogs?!?! 😅🎉
🐕💨
Kevin is so smart. Those questions lol
Some dumb questions
DOGS DO NOT NEED TO BE VEGAN OHMYGOD
They don’t need USDA meat either. I’ve seen too much people give they food human food to eat.
new drinking game: take a shot every time he says "biotech"
This brand is definitely living up to its name...
The valuation is just *_wild_*
Dogs eat meat naturally, not plant based foods
Pet food is like the beauty industry. Every Tom Dick and Harry tries to claim they know everything and starts a business they know nothing about. This dude is even taking it a step further calling himself a "biotech entrepreneur"? What a joke
He should have wrapped by kneeling and telling the dogs “okay, guys. Let’s go celebrate with some Brussel sprouts !”
Poor dogs 😢
Nope

Purina and royal canine are the worst kibbles you can feed
@@PKB425That's an objectively false statement lol
was hoping i would see this comment, thankfully not everyone is delusional about dog food.
9:35 "What we wanna do is show success first." Has yet to sell a single thing 🤓

Well the poor guy is only left with 10 percent of his company. He gave it all away. Shame
10% of 42 million is a lot.....plus he has connections and bridges now with other sharks.
@@RyzenZegendexactly. All about connections. These are once in a lifetime connections. Have to sacrifice a lot to gain alot
That's generally the price you pay if you want to grow your business, unless you strike gold and make it on your own without investors

Customer: how much
Him:40 a bag

What I'm learning is Cuban must have a lot of money...even compared to the others.
He’s the only Billionaire on shark tank.
Happy lunch , dinner , breakfast or meal to everyone.
One of the better debates! 😎
The vets that recommend vegan all have pink hair - I bet my life hahahahaaaaa!!!!
Kevin is dead on, too real. Mark just doesn’t get it.
If a vet ever promotes a meat free diet for your dog - run away! This is absurd and bad for your dogs health!
I make my 2 dogs their meals all natural i make it in bulk meat,vegetables and fruit put in a sauce or gravy done i save money and my kids eat healthy
Somebody must stop all these vegan nonsense ffs... 🤦♀️
A panel without Barbara is already a good start.
Still has seed oils in them
Animals are not vegan. They need meat
I’m eating kibbles for lunch.
Made in a lab but a superfood?
I believe that I have seen these products at PetSmart and other similar stores... 😮🎉
how much does it cost to make tho
My cats would leave me if I brought this garbage home.
LOCK THIS GUY UP

Thanks for the update
I like what Mark Cuban gives hopes and a chance specially to the new entrepreneur who needs a break and capital
DOGS NEED MEAT. THERE IS NO COMPARISON.

Have you ever seen a wolf pack circle up a corn field 🌽??? No. They circle up an ELK.
you dont know nothing. they really dont
Shark tank is really interesting to watch
Great deal.

Did they just eat dog snacks?
Yes
we need aftermath pls
Vegan and vegetarian is craving meat, because they always imitate meat haha! Just too much chuchu!
Great 😊
Food technology? Stop. Just stop.
Forcing veganism on dogs…
I know people say hes crazy. Crazy people are the ones who become wealthy, because of their crazy, unique ideas, and people will follow.
This is 1 April joke right?
Dogs want to tear into the side of another animal and eat it !

I am an Elden Lord
Those dogs look awful, I worked in dog food for years, you want grain free. Not....all grain.
Slice of Pizza :D
Let me know when it’s up and running because I want to buy a dog food and treats

Not feeding dogs meat is such a bad idea, that’s all they like…..
