5 reasons why dogs love our best-selling Turkey recipe:

Grain-free dog food

100% grain-free goodness

Most grain-free food swaps a crappy grain for a crappy processed starch. This is choc full of premium meat, wholesome whole veggies and legumes like broad beans and chickpeas. No corn or soy in sight.

Meat

Lean, mean protein.

We pack in as much 100% locally and ethically-sourced meat from Australia as we can. No dodgy bits, just a cool 30% protein to keep pups at it all day long and seniors from putting on the pounds.

Dog food ingredients

Transparent ingredients

No sneaky names and hidden surprises – just the real deal. When we say ‘turkey’ we mean it. Not turkey one month, then chicken if it’s cheaper. If we ever change a recipe, you’ll hear about it from us.

Coconut illustration

Heaps of healthy oils

Salmon, coconut, you name it. We mix through a stack of healthy oils high in omegas to keep their brain and joints in top nick. Plus, Vitamins E, A and C to give their skin and coat a glow-up too.

Dog in front of food bowl

Flavours galore

For dogs that aren’t super sensitive, having different sources of drool-worthy proteins makes sure there are a large range of nutrients and flavours to keep them healthy and interested.

Formulated with an animal nutritionist, Scratch is full of grain-free goodness for all life stages.

The nitty gritty

You won’t find generic names that could mean any part of an animal.
We keep things real, and use the best quality ingredients in Australia.

Just hover over any ingredient below to understand why we use it. Doesn’t have a percentage shown? That means it is included at 1% or below. Small, but important!

Tons of Aussie meat

We’ve put a bunch of effort into sourcing all the juicy meat for this recipe straight from the human food supply chain to make sure your pup is getting high quality protein.

All that turkey? From Inghams. Even the grass-fed lamb and the beef is 100% Australian and free of added hormones too.

High-in-fibre for gut health

Broad beans and chickpeas are naturally rich in fibre to boost digestion and the immune system. Say goodbye to upset tummies and hello to perfectly firm number 2s.

Whole veggies & extra vitamins

We use whole ingredients as much as we can to keep more antioxidants and nutrients in your dog's food. And add a healthy dose of supplements to ensure they get all they need (and then some).

Great for large-breed puppies

If your pup is going to grow up to be larger than 32kg, then they should get the Turkey, Lamb & Beef recipe while they are growing. This recipe’s calcium:phosphorus ratio is 1.31:1 - perfect for large breed puppy food.

Honest Dog Food

Dog food is unregulated. Some companies claim meat on the packaging without having much of it in there at all. We're leading a new standard of transparency with exact percentages so you really know what's in there.

One’s not better than the other, they are just different (just like we tell our dogs). It all comes down to what your dog needs and prefers.

If your dog has any known allergies to common proteins, then Fish or Kangaroo is the right place to start. If your pup is going to grow up to be larger than 32kg, then they should get the Turkey, Lamb & Beef recipe while they are growing. If they’re super active, then Lamb is best. For all other dogs, it really comes down to taste.

If in doubt, take our quiz, tell us about your dog and we’ll be able to recommend the perfect recipe for their needs.

Variety is the spice of life. We worked with our nutritionist to make the best food for large breed puppies – and everyone else too.

Although a chicken allergy is unlikely to mean an allergy to turkey, our turkey is processed on the same production line as chicken, so there is a small chance of cross-contamination. If your dog has a diagnosed allergy, then it is safest to stick with another one of our recipes instead.

Both are actually very high compared to most food on the market, especially for ones that don’t add protein concentrate from peas. We consider that 28%-32% is a sweet spot that provides all the protein your dog needs to thrive, without putting too much pressure on their digestive system and organs.

If your dog has not been doing well on other foods out there, single protein food is the way to go. While it may have been the specific protein or a grain your dog is allergic to, our Sensitive Mackerel & Salmon or Roo kibbles or Raw food options are your best bet to quickly find a food that works for your dog.

The best thing to do is to request a sample to try. The pieces in our Turkey, Lamb & Beef kibble are 14mm in diameter and are still quite thin. Bigger kibble can slow down fast eaters, as well as improving dental health. Best to check first before you dive into a box.

Kibble size can have an impact on dental health. Larger kibble makes dogs chew more, rather than just swallow, so it can help keep teeth cleaner. You probably also should give your dog natural dental treats or raw bones to chew on too.

Subscription changes everything. We know how many subscribers we have, when their next deliveries are due and can time when we make and send them a fresh box.

Traditional store-bought dry dog food may be up to a year old before you buy it. Generally, it will have a best before date, but not a production date so it is hard to tell how old it is. Dog food is normally made in large runs, then sits in the manufacturer’s warehouse waiting for a distributor or retailer to place an order.

It then sits in their warehouse waiting for a distributor or retailer to place an order. Finally it sits on the shelf at the retail store with hundreds of other varieties, waiting for the customer to come in and want that exact product.

We make Scratch recipes monthly, sending you two freshly sealed 4kg bags per box. Keep one sealed while you’re feeding the first and open it when old mate is ready for more.

24% of this recipe is Turkey Meal. This is Turkey meat, bones & organs that has the fat removed and is then dehydrated and milled into a powder. This powder allows for a high density of highly digestible protein to be included in our kibble. Within the ‘meat meal’ space there are different grades the animal industry can buy. We pride ourselves on investing a lot into the grade of our meal and how much actual meat is included. Ours is from the human food supply chain, which is why we say ‘lean, high quality protein’ – because it is.

Most dogs will be fine switching between the two foods. But some will need to transition. If this is something you want to try, it’s best to test it out with your dog to see what works best for them.

It all depends on your dog. Take our quiz to find out for your pup. We’ll ask for their weight, age and activity level and a few other little things.

That helps us estimate their calorie needs, how much Scratch to feed them and how long a box would last. If you have multiple dogs, you’ll get a feeding guide unique to each of them, but they can eat the same box of food.

We’ll base the frequency of a fresh box arriving based on that feeding plan, but you have full control to pause, cancel, speed up or slow down your subscription as needed.

Just like us humans, some dogs don’t like change. It’s also important to remember that sometimes the old food that they may be used to may have had lots of salt or other additives that made it taste great, even if it wasn’t the most healthy. Be persistent and try not to be trained by your fur baby. We can share some tips if you need them! Just get in touch.

If you’ve tried and you’re still unsure, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee on your first order, no questions asked. Sometimes they might just not be into that recipe. We’ll include samples in your first box so you can see if they prefer something else so you can switch. See more about our returns policy.

We’ve made it super simple to pause, slow down or speed up your subscription with a click of a button so you’re only getting food whenever you need it.

We also remind you 7 days and again 24 hours ahead of sending more fresh food for your dogs.

Different ingredients produce different amounts of energy and some food is more dense than others, so one cup of two different dog foods can also have a big difference in energy availability.

Our feeding suggestions are usually pretty spot on based on whether your dog is in a healthy weight range, overweight etc, but you can monitor your dog’s weight and use common sense to feed more or less if your dog’s weight changes unexpectedly.

We calculate how much Scratch each dog should be fed per day based on each individual breed, age, weight and activity level.

You can feed them these separate amounts out of the same bag, or we can send two recipes at once if they should eat different things.

We currently use Australia Post, with no signature required. Your driver will leave the box in the safest place possible and leave a card if they think there’s nowhere out of sight.

We don’t want you to have to try to get to your local post office during business hours, and then have to lug home a heavy box of food, so let us know if you’d prefer us to leave a note with orders if you have a preferred place for packages.

We’d love to avoid plastic all together, but if moisture was to get into the box it could create mould and be a horrible health risk for your dog. We’re looking at how we can invest in creating a non-plastic bag, but for now we use a bio-based bag made from up to 50% plant material. It’s carbon neutral and *technically* recyclable. If your council supports LDPE recycling or if you can drop it off at another soft plastics collection point. But that’s pretty tough to do. So you’ll see on the bag we’ve said to put it in the bin.

The good news is: when it ends up in landfills it breaks down into biogenic carbon instead of generating any greenhouse gas emissions.

30 years ago, most dogs lived in the backyard rather than on the bed. We now fully accept them into our families as little fur babies.

While pet food has improved, we don’t think that regulation has kept up. In fact, it is still only a voluntary standard that exists, and that was written by the pet food industry itself.

While our manufacturing partners are PFIAA members and audited to the voluntary standard, we have currently chosen not to join. We especially believe that the standard does not demand the transparency that consumers expect and deserve. The flexibility that it allows marketers to deceive and promote is more appropriate for business generations ago, not now.
