Chunky Mince

Contains Bone
Raw bone is a natural source of important nutrients like calcium and phosphorus, which contribute to strong bones and overall health.
Contains Raw Meat
Raw meat, including tripe, provides dogs with high-quality, easily digestible protein, which supports muscle development and overall vitality.
Raw meat is also rich in essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats that contribute to a shiny coat, healthy skin, and increased energy levels.
Contains ~10% Offal
Raw offal, which includes organ meats like liver, kidney, and heart, offers significant nutritional benefits for dogs.
It is packed with essential vitamins, which support overall health, immune function, and energy levels.
Offal is also rich in healthy fats and amino acids that promote skin and coat health, as well as muscle growth and repair.
Contains Seasonal Veg & Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Extra virgin olive oil is also a good source of antioxidants, particularly vitamin E, which promotes a shiny coat, healthy skin, and overall immune function.
Seasonal vegetables offer diverse nutrients depending on the time of year, ensuring a more varied and balanced diet. They are a good source of fibre, which helps with digestion and maintains a healthy gut. Raw vegetables are low in calories, making them great for weight management while adding natural hydration and crunch to a dog’s meals.
