Frequently Asked Questions
Have you added lots of filler to bulk it out without normal meat?
Definitely not. Our insect-based food, like the rest of our range is compromise free. It’s complete and nutritionally balanced.
Will my dog be getting enough protein?
Absolutely. Not only is it a complete food ready to go, but insects actually contain more protein than chicken or beef!
Why is it better for the planet?
First of all, insects are sustainably sourced and use far fewer of the planet’s resources. The process of cold pressing food uses minimal energy and all our products are packed in sustainable recyclable, biodegradable and compostable packaging.
Speaking of cold pressed, is this the same as kibble?
No, it’s dry food but that’s where the similarities end. Kibble is extruded at very high temperatures. While cold pressed is gently pressed at much lower temperatures to retain nutrients and preserve the benefits of our carefully selected ingredients.
Will I be able to see actual bugs in the food?
Nope! Switching to insect based is suitable even for the most squeamish pet owner. It looks exactly the same as our other cold pressed pellets.
How healthy are insects? I'm interested but isn't it a bit... weird?
We get it. Insect based dog food is a bit of a change from standard flavours. That’s why we’ve created the recipe to be fed alone or alongside your standard proteins. We’re all about offering choice and lightening our environmental impact one bowl at a time. Insects are a fantastic source of animal protein, packed with protein and highly digestible. Not only that, but they are hypoallergenic and low in purines, so perfect for dogs with sensitivities.
Is it still grain free?
As with most of our food, Insect Protein is 100% grain free.
Is it suitable for puppies?
Absolutely – we recommend feeding from 2 months onwards, and introducing it slowly by blending with their existing puppy food over the period of 7-10 days.
What pack sizes do you make?
We sell our food in 10kg boxes and 2kg boxes. But you can also purchase our food in just the inner eco paper bag without the box at a 5% price reduction.
It's a great way to save money and reduce your environmental impact by reusing your outer cardboard box.
