    Frequently Asked Questions

    FAQs

    Unless your dog has an intolerance to all grains, which is rare, you don't need to opt for grain free. Always look at the full ingredient list to understand if a recipe is right for your dog. Our wet dog food are designed with single-source protein, a limited number of ingredients and prebiotics to be extra gentle on sensitive tums. They happen to be grain free wet dog food recipes as well.

    The amount to feed will depend on the size and age of your pooch. You can use our feeding calculator to guide you on your dog's daily needs. Remember though this is only a guide, so you may need to adjust accordingly to ensure an ideal body condition is maintained. Fresh water should be available at all times, and don't forget to adjust down if you're feeding treats additionally. Once opened seal and refridgerate the trays and use within 4 days.

    The tray and sleeve are both 100% recyclable, don't forget to wash them first. The film must go in with your general waste. We're busy working on a recyclable option!

    As your dog matures, their metabolism and digestive system changes so feeding the right food is even more important when looking after an older dog. Healthy senior dog food should include easy to digest quality protein, the right balance of vitamins and minerals, and ideally have added joint care. All our recipes are designed with digestive health in mind and tailored to meet the nutritional profile of all life stages. Your senior dog’s metabolism will be slower than before so it’s important to monitor their weight and body condition to avoid obesity, which older dogs are more susceptible to.

    No, as long as you’ve chosen a good quality adult dog food it should provide all your pooch needs later in life, meaning you don’t necessarily need to switch. The major thing you need to watch out for with senior dogs is their weight, so you might need to reduce their portion size accordingly.

    Different sized pooches develop differently, so we consider small breeds above the age of 11 to be senior citizens, medium breeds at 10, and for larger breeds at 8 years of age.

    The decision is really up to you and your pooch which type of food to feed. Senior dogs are more likely to suffer from dental disease, so wet food can be a good option for pooch's missing a tooth or two, as well as having a higher moisture content to help stay hydrated. Equally you can just moisten dry food recipes with a splash of water.
