Incremental Increase: Move up to half a portion once they are settled.
Perfect Pairings: Mix our meals with high-quality pellets, such as Hills, for a balanced and nourishing bowl.

Rich Gravy: Add 150ml of warm water to create a flavourful gravy that they will love.
Monthly Treat: Crack a raw egg over their meal twice a month for a special protein indulgence.
Calcium Boost: Sprinkle finely ground eggshells into the bowl for extra bone support.
Omega Oils: Add pilchards, with the sauce washed off, once a week for a shiny coat and healthy joints. Avoid tuna, as it contains higher mercury levels.
Other supplements you can add
Glucon-M: Support for strong, mobile joints. This formula helps alleviate inflammation and promotes natural repair to keep your pooch active and comfortable.
Omega-3 Oil: The secret to a lustrous coat and healthy skin. These essential fatty acids reduce inflammation while supporting a robust immune system.

*Before making any changes to your dog's diet, it is important to consult with your veterinarian for professional guidance and advice.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Absolutely! Did you know that the majority of commercial dog foods contain wheat as a filler? Unfortunately, dogs are often intolerant to wheat, which can lead to allergies and digestive issues. That's why it's important to choose a dog food that is free from wheat and filled with wholesome, nutritious ingredients that your furry friend will love.
Yes! Our meals are suitable for dogs of all ages, including puppies. When feeding puppies, we recommend adding 5-10 puppy pellets to the meal to provide an extra source of calcium, which is crucial for developing strong bones.
Another great option is to include a few crushed eggshells, as they are an excellent natural source of calcium. With our meals, you can ensure that your young furry companion receives the essential nutrients they need for healthy growth and development.
No, not at all! Our meals are incredibly convenient to use. Simply defrost and feed to your furry friend. For an extra touch, we recommend adding approximately 100ml of boiling water to the meal. This creates a delicious gravy that adds a little extra treat to your dog's dining experience. Not only does it enhance the flavour, but it also ensures they stay hydrated throughout the day. With our meals, you can provide a tasty and satisfying meal for your best friend without any hassle.
Our commitment to quality extends to every ingredient we use in our meals, including the addition of human-grade Turmeric and Cinnamon. These carefully selected ingredients offer a range of benefits for your dog's health and well-being.
Turmeric is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, helping to alleviate discomfort and promote joint health.
Cinnamon, on the other hand, aids in arthritis relief and supports weight management, ensuring your dog maintains a healthy weight.
With our meals, you can provide your canine companion with the goodness of these natural ingredients, helping them thrive and live their best life.
Once defrosted, our canine meals can be safely stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This allows for convenient meal planning and ensures that your dog can enjoy fresh, nutritious food throughout the week. We recommend storing the meals in a sealed container to maintain freshness and prevent any potential cross-contamination.
To make it easier for you, we have created a simple and informative diagram to guide you on the appropriate portion sizes for your beloved furry friend. This visual representation provides clear instructions on how much food your dog should be consuming, based on their weight and activity level. By following this handy guide, you can ensure that your pet receives the right amount of nourishment to support their overall health and well-being. Take the guesswork out of mealtime and rely on our helpful diagram to keep your best friend happy and satisfied.
