It's often said that if you're feeding raw then you should be feeding offal too. The fact is, dogs need specific nutrients...not ingredients. And they don't need to include offal.

You've been turned off kibble, and you're wary about the pitfalls of homemade dog food that's not complete and balanced. There are pre-made fresh food options of course, but is there a homemade human-grade alternative? Something that makes a raw (or lightly cooked) diet for dogs  simple and foolproof? The answer is yes, and we explain the approach.

Big pet food companies claim the high ground in  animal nutrition – but is kibble really all it’s cracked up to be? We break down the manufacturing process to find that maybe kibble is just today's 'dog cake'.

If we want to understand how to feed our dogs better, we need to understand some of the problems with dry dog food and the pitfalls of homemade dog food. But first, just how did we get here??? It all began in 1860. In this post we explain how mainstream modern dog food has been shaped by our relationships with our dogs, our own food tastes and the influence of big money aka big pet.

There's a new book out, called, you guessed it, Eat Like the Animals, written by researchers from the Charles Perkins Centre at Sydney Uni, David Raubenheimer and Stephen Simpson. It has lessons for what we should be eating - and what we should be feeding our pets.

If you’ve looked at the ingredients in our balancing supplement for cats, or our complete and balanced treats for dogs, you’ll have noticed that both include cricket protein. And, after you’re over the ‘ew’ factor, you may be wondering why that is…

Here, we explain why crickets are in the mix – how it compares to other ingredients and why it’s actually so green! 

Stress, fear and anxiety in our dogs causes disturbing behaviour, and chronic levels can have serious health implications - from skin, to weight to brain. Hair analysis helps unravel the stress response and some key triggers: did you know stress levels may be higher in multi-dog households?

If I told you that dogs are ‘smart’ enough to work out what they should eat for optimum health, you probably wouldn’t believe me. However, research shows that is exactly what they’re able to do.
