Aussie dogs are dealing with more health issues than ever, and what's in their bowl has a lot to answer for.
Most pet food has...
More fillers than the cast of MAFS
Flashy trends like sprouted wheatgrass or emu oil are there to distract from what’s actually in the bowl and labels don't always tell the full story. You might think you’re buying "Kangaroo," but it’s frequently bulked out with cheaper mystery proteins to cut costs. We reckon if you need a detective and a dictionary to understand your dog’s dinner, it’s probably a "kibble crime."
More marketing fluff than a Samoyed's tail
Kibble can be packed with cheap, carb heavy 'filler' ingredients which result in a blood sugar rollercoaster, resulting in hunger and an energy crash rather than providing fuel for all day zoomies. Plus we reckon if you had to live on a diet of dry biscuits and empty carbs, you’d be pretty grumpy by lunchtime, too.
Feeding guides that require a PhD in maths
Vague labels and dusty measuring cups make it way too easy to accidentally turn your bestie into a walking sausage roll. Our vet (whose dad actually does have a PhD in maths) helped us ditch the guesswork. We ask the right questions to ensure every pack is perfectly pre-portioned for your dog's actual needs, no calculator required.
