“It’s the only food that the dogs did better on than raw”
An Australian small-roots business, Savourlife puts a lot of emphasis on donating 50% of their profits to pet rescue associations. Compared to Scratch, who donates 2% of all revenue to rescue & climate action orgs, the difference can be significant (and really surprising).
Savourlife cooks their recipes in Australia, but the origin country of their ingredients is questionable. They mention making their food from ingredients âincluding real Australian meatâ, which could mean all the other non-meat stuff that makes up Savourlife is internationally sourced.
Unlike Scratch â the only pet food company to include ingredient percentages and really emphasise transparency â dubious terms like âpoultry oilâ and ânatural flavouringâ are often found on Savourlife bags.
This tells you very little about the actual ingredients including, except that itâs highly likely they change from batch to batch. Not ideal if your best mate is chronically itchy, scratchy, or allergy prone.

“Since starting Duke on Scratch he isnât scratching so much & no more runny #2âs!!! Now onto the customer service. Hands down THE BEST, customer service around!”

From world champion surfer Mick Fanning investing in Scratch, to news spots around Australia, we're not alone in wanting better food for Aussie dogs.
Surfing legend Mick Fanning has entered into the dog food business after investing in a trendy grain-free product that helped his pooch Harper.
In a horribly deceptive and broken market, Scratch has launched its fresher, healthier and more ethical food for Australiaâs 4.8 million dogs.
Sold online and delivered via a personalised subscription, Scratch takes out dog foodâs large retail margins and puts it into the recipe, spending up to 50 per cent more on Australian ingredients (no artificial preservatives or dodgy meats).
