Flavour

Raw feeding at its plainest, sixteen recipes long, and every one in our Outstanding band. Each label is named meat, ground bone and organs with a percentage beside every entry, and that is the whole list. Which animals your dog does well on is what decides between them.

Where to buy: coming soon

Live retailer links are coming soon. Once we have them from UK retailers, where to buy and the best price will appear here.

Our view

Likely to suit

Rotation feeders. Every recipe follows the same construction and only the animals change
Nothing botanical in the bowl: no vegetable, fruit or cereal on any label
Keeping to one animal, on the chicken, duck, turkey or lamb breast recipes
Dogs who have tried everything ordinary. Kangaroo and wild venison are on the menu
A pup, an adult and an older dog fed together. Every stage and size is listed

Worth watching

Freezer space, a night's thaw in the fridge, and washing hands, boards and bowls after
Fat runs from 22.2% to 48.5% of dry matter. A change of recipe can mean a change of portion
Beef liver and kidney turn up under other headline animals. Check each list when excluding a meat

Against the range

Animals: Turkey only; Most pair two or three
Energy: 116.8 kcal per 100g; Leanest single-animal recipe

The lean pick among the single-animal recipes.

Every recipe is minced meat, ground bone and organs from named animals, each with a percentage, and nothing else. No vegetables, cereals or supplement blend appear on any label. Tripe leads on about half the range with a bone-in cut at 30% behind it, and liver and kidney at 5% each close most labels. With no premix anywhere, the organs carry the vitamins and minerals.

Protein converts to between 45.5% and 75.6% of dry matter and carbohydrate is at or near zero throughout. Fat runs from 22.2% to 48.5% and energy from 88.5 to 192 kcal per 100g, so portions move a lot between recipes.
