About our Food

Doggy Grub is made in South Australia. Our ingredients and handling methods are human grade, cooked in small batches and packaged in a human grade facility. There is no regulation in pet food, so we have decided to hold ourselves to the same guidelines, testing and validation as human food.

Doggy Grub is a small, family owned company, committed to changing the way we feed our dogs, one bowl at a time, while supporting local farmers.

95% of our ingredients are sourced in Australia. We believe in supporting non-intensive farming, that is why we select meat whose farming has a low impact on the environment such as kangaroo (free-range), carp fish and chicken.


We are based in South Australia and orders are distributed daily, Australia wide.

The Doggy Grub meals contain NO artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives and NO fillers. Our meals consist only of whole meat (no meat meal) and all our ingredients are human grade.

There are no hidden ingredients, only what you see listed on the ingredient list.

One great thing about Doggy Grub meals is that you don't have to clear out space in your freezer; you can just stash them in a cool, dry spot, like your pantry. Plus, they take up way less room than traditional meals, making them super easy to stack and store.

Our meals stay tasty for months when stored in your cupboard. Unlike some other products that rely on preservatives or additives, which can mess with the nutritional goodness of the food, we've developed clever packaging and cooking methods to keep our meals shelf-stable without compromising on quality.

So, at Doggy Grub, we make sure to source all our ingredients fresh from the farm. Once we've got everything, we pack them raw into the pouches and seal them up tight.

Then comes the magic touch – we steam-cook the whole pouch from the outside. Steam cooking is super gentle, preserving all the natural goodness like moisture, vitamins, and minerals from the fresh produce we use. This locks in the freshness, flavour, and nutrients, keeping your furry friend happy and healthy!

Plus, the moisture content helps with digestion so it's a win-win!

All of Doggy Grub meals are Complete & Balanced, meeting the required nutritional levels established by AAFCO for adult maintenance or growth.

The meals are safe to feed to puppies but we recommend using them as a partial diet, mixing with puppy kibbles or other foods, until your pup has reached 12 months of age.

After that, you can feed Doggy Grub as a full diet if you wish.

We genuinely love all dogs and we believe a wholefood diet is the best approach for your pet. We continue to see amazing health transformation in dogs being fed fresh food.

All our meals are developed alongside vets and pet nutritionists and cooked with human grade meat, veggies and a natural boost powder that will ensure your dog is getting all the nutrients and vitamins needed.

Doggy Grub meals contain NO artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives and NO fillers. Only ingredients you know and can recognize! You will see (and smell!) the difference in the quality of our meals as soon as you open a pack.

We have a fantastic success rate amongst the pickiest of eaters, who always polish clean their Doggy Grub bowl. That’s because fresh food smells and tastes amazing and ultimately makes your dog feel so much better: better number 2s, more energy, healthier coat and shiny eyes.

Pet food is essentially unregulated and standards are pretty low when it comes to commercial dog food (and not mandatory!). That is why we insist on cooking your dog’s meals with the same standards as human grade food. After all, dogs are man’s best friend so why should they be treated any differently?

Ultimately, pet healthcare decisions should be based upon your research and in partnership with a qualified holistic pet healthcare professional.

The information we provide on this website is not intended as medical advice and we're simply sharing what we believe is the best based on our knowledge, research and experience on the dogs we have fed.

Getting Started

Dogs need time to adapt to new foods. We recommend introducing Doggy Grub to your dog’s diet slowly and in increasing amounts over a period of 8 days. This will prevent tummy upset.

The trick is to mix the new food with your dog’s old food.

Transitioning to a full diet with Doggy Grub:

Days1-3: 25% Doggy Grub, 75% other food.

Days 4-6: 50% Doggy Grub, 50% other food.

Days 7-8: 75% Doggy Grub, 25% other food.

Day 9: 100% Doggy Grub.

Dogs with a sensitive stomach may need a longer transition period.

Transitioning to meal toppers with Doggy Grub, transition over 3-4 days.

Days 1-2: 25% of Doggy Grub, 75% other food.

Days 3-4: 50% of the new food, 50% other food.

Your dog’s stools will naturally change, but if your dog starts experiencing diarrhea or vomiting, go back a step to when the issue was not occurring and rest there an extra day before moving up.

The Doggy Grub casseroles are already cooked and ready-to-eat giving you many options! It can be fed as a full meal, as a mixer with other foods (50/50), as a topper or as a rotational meal to add variety.

It can also be served as a pill-hider or an occasional treat to a good boy or good girl!

Doggy Grub uses a cleaver packaging technology, called a retort pouch, that enables you to store your casseroles at ambient temperatures.

So no need to clear out your ice cream draw!

Simply store in a cupboard or pantry, in a cool, dry place and away from direct sunlight. Refrigerate once opened and consume within 4 days.

Portions size depends on your dog's breed, age, and how much they're into zoomies or chillaxing.

But don't fret! We've got a nifty feeding guide waiting for you on our product page.

If you're still feeling a bit puzzled reach out to our awesome team at contact@doggygrub.com.au. We're here to chat and make sure your dog's dining experience is top-notch!

The Doggy Grub pouches are retort pouches maded with layers of laminate, paper products, and/or recycled materials. They can be recycled in the soft plastic bins.

You do not need to wash them, simply make sure they are dry and as empty of food as possible. Drop into your nearest collection bin (Woolworth or Coles).

Our delivery boxes are recyclable in your yellow bin or you can use them as a dog or cat playhouse.

Our Droolz treats packaging (pouch & labels) are 100% home compostable.

When you placed your first order you received an invite to create an account. The email collection for the order is separate from creating an account. Since your account was never verified that is why you are getting an error message.
