Our Favorite Dynamic Duo
Did you know that since 2022, the Jinx fam has partnered with Chris Evans and his dog, Dodger? Together, our hope is to help all dogs get access to the highest quality food possible at an accessible price point. Keep reading to learn more about our growing partnership—and about how Chris Evans’ dog came into the picture and changed his life for the better.
A Shared Passion for Dogs
We created Jinx because we wanted to create better options for our dogs that were tasty and healthy, but still easy-to-feed to accommodate our busy lifestyles.
All of our products are made using premium proteins, packed with real, nutrient-rich superfoods, and are free from artificial preservatives or fillers. Formulated by animal nutritionists and approved by certified veterinarians, Jinx's rigorous vetting ensures that dogs get the balanced nutrition they need without anything they don't.
It all started when Chris had his dog, Dodger, try out Jinx and saw what a positive difference it made in Dodger’s overall health and energy. "I was thrilled to find Jinx – a food Dodger loves to eat and that I know is safe and healthy for him,” said Evans about our premium dog products.
A natural match: Chris Evans + Jinx Dog Food
After an introduction, we quickly bonded over our love for our pups and our passion for helping dogs in need. And once Chris told us about how he met Dodger, we knew a partnership was in the stars. While filming his movie Gifted in 2017, Chris shot a final scene at an animal shelter when he noticed Dodger, who was up for adoption. It was love at first sight.
“He is everything to me. He’s the most honest, loyal, stoic teacher you could possibly ask for. He’s so reliable… I’ve had different dogs in my life, I’ve known so many, and Dodger just really stands alone. No disrespect to any other dogs, but he’s just really a perfect animal. It was kind of a no-brainer to partner up on something that would help him.”
Chris’ love for his dog (and all dogs) make him the perfect addition to our Jinx family and leadership team. An actor, entrepreneur, dog dad, and all-around good guy, Chris has already become a well-loved and integral part of our mission to redefine dog wellness with healthier, tastier, and affordable food.
What does the Chris Evans and Jinx partnership include?
We're excited to have Chris move into an active role in our business growth and creative vision. We all know him for his roles as Captain America in the Marvel Universe and as a filmmaker and entrepreneur, but lately Chris has been taking on another huge role: America’s favorite dog dad.
From our latest commercial, to launching the Limited Edition Dog Dream Box at Walmart, to helping our partner shelter, Animal Haven, find homes for their rescue pups, Chris has played a huge role in sharing our missions to bring quality food to all dogs.
As Chris himself says, "I'm excited to come on board and help grow awareness for the company so all dogs can have the highest quality food possible at an accessible price point. You’re always looking for good partnerships—things that mean something to you. Then meeting with the folks at Jinx, they share the passion that I feel for dogs and they explain the product and you realize that all the pieces of the puzzle were there. It just made perfect sense.”
