What ingredients do we use in our food?

Looking down the dog food aisle, whether metaphorically speaking online, or in a physical shop, there is a plethora of choice.  Some brands specialise in creating a food that would sit perfectly on our dining room table, whilst others prefer a simpler, more minimalist approach to the food that we feed our dogs.

Naturediet believe that your canine companion deserves the best and with over 40 years’ experience, our limited ingredient, complete and balanced recipes offer dogs the perfect dinner time dishes. Our approach has always been to ensure that there is nothing in a recipe that your dog does not need – nothing fancy, nothing clever, just simple honest food designed for your dog. So, what do we include, and why?

British sourced ingredients. British made dog food.

Our 100% natural dog food requires the best ingredients, all of which are sourced from within the UK and as close as possible to our Norfolk factory. We leave out chemicals, artificial preservatives, colourants and flavourings in favour of high-quality pure meat or fish and veggies.  There are no fillers or bulking agents either – just top-notch canine nosh.

List of ingredients

Meat

High quality meat sourced from animals fit for human consumption which contain essential amino acids, vitamins and minerals.

We only use chicken, lamb and turkey as our meat-based protein sources.

High quality meat based oils provide a concentrated energy source and are essential for healthy skin and coat.

Fish (including salmon & white fish)

Sustainably sourced white fish and salmon provide high-quality sources of protein to our fish-based recipes that support overall health and wellbeing.

Naturally rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, fish and fish oils help to promote a healthy skin and coat, while also offering anti-inflammatory benefits.

These essential oils also act as a concentrated energy source, supporting dogs of all life stages as part of a balanced diet.

Natural Ground Bone

Natural ground bone is added in small amounts to provide essential calcium and phosphorous for strong and healthy teeth and bones.

The natural bone is specific to the menu, lamb contains lamb bone, fish contains fish bone, chicken contains chicken, all of which are ground.

Egg

Egg is used in our puppy food and is an easily digested source of protein.

Eggs are a nutritious source of vitamins and minerals.
