Seasonal wholefoods – that you would eat yourself. Gently freshly steam cooked by our Nottinghamshire chefs
-
Prime cuts of meat – from maturated steak to skinless chicken thighs. You can see the meat your dog is eating (no brown mush from us!)
-
Seeds, fruits and vibrant vegetables – Antioxidant powerhouses, all marinated in a meaty broth so even fussier dogs enjoy.
-
Natural prebiotics – to support your dog's gut microbiome. Naturally occurring in quinoa, sweet potato, and hemp oil.
2
Breed Health+ supplement blends included with every meal
Specifically designed by our Board Certified Veterinary Nutritionist to be added to your dog's wholefood meal when serving, to a supercharge it's nutrition.
Powerful functional ingredients tailored to your dog's individual needs to help them flourish:

-
Probiotic E.faecium good bacteria - to help top up your dog's natural population of healthy bacteria (up to 400 million CFU).

Beta-glucan prebiotics – to further aid and encourage healthy gut function by feeding the good bacteria in your dog's gut.

Everything Tailored To Your Dogs Breed, Age & More
Different breeds have different needs. The size of your dog, their activity level, snacks, personality, neutered status and age all impact what your dog requires from their diet.
That is why a 1-year-old neutered pug, who doesn’t have treats but is a bit of a couch potato will get different ingredients, serving size, and nutrition to a 2-year-old mixed breed dog who is full of energy and slightly overweight.
-
Breed specific nutrition – Your dogs breed impacts their longevity so we tailor their Complete Nutrition System accordingly
-
Life stage / Age – Puppies, adult and senior dogs have vastly different nutritional requirements, so we tailor to meet their needs
-
Activity levels – Is your dog a couch potato or more energetic than a toddler? Both have completely different calorie requirements.

Which do you think is healthier?
Pug? Cockapoo? Mixed breed? They're all different so their nutrition is too
A 10 year old Pug, who snacks daily but is a bit of a couch potato is different to a 2 year old mixed breed dog is full of energy. That is why they will both get different ingredients, different amounts and different longevity advice from Years.
Just like you would tweak your diet if you were doing more exercise or knew you could benefit from more Vitamin D.

Avoid these tricks “human grade" fresh dog food brands are using right now
1
"Mince" on the label is often Mechanically Separated Meat
Would you eat this?
Don't be duped by photos of prime chicken breast on the website, if their ingredient page says chicken mince it is most likely Mechanically Separated Meat.
Mechanically separated meat is a paste-like meat product produced by forcing bones, with attached edible meat, under high pressure through a sieve or similar device to separate the bone from the edible meat tissue.
Joshua Hannaby
Would you eat this?
2
"Freshly Prepared Chicken"on the label isn't what you think
Mechanical separation from the carcass (head, feet, scrap cuts) grounded and pasteurised into a freshly prepared chicken mush.
3
The product is all "minced" up to hide the Frankenstein meats.
Would You eat this?
They claim to use premium ingredients but then the product resembles brown mush with the odd flicker of veg, why?
Because it is the best way to hide the type of meat they're really using.
Would you eat this?
4
Calling the ingredients "human grade" to give the impression of quality
All the ingredients above are "human grade" but do you fancy them for dinner tonight? No. Don't be fooled by the term human grade.
Meat you would eat - like steak!
Dog food should be real, fresh food you would eat yourself – that is our philosophy. And that is why we never use “human grade” meats like mechanically separated meat but actual cuts of meats you would recognise and eat yourself.
Your dog will enjoy matured steak, skinless turkey and chicken thighs with super fruits, seeds and vibrant vegetables.
Beef steak
Prime cuts of meat, not cheap fillers
Super seeds
Quinoa is a seed which provides all essential amino acids
Vibrant veg
High in phytonutrients and antioxidants

At Years, we use only prime cuts of meat, such as steak, chicken, and turkey thigh. These premium cuts
far surpass the quality of what’s typically labelled as “human grade” in the dog food industry.
The term "human grade" can be misleading, as it simply indicates that the meat could be consumed by
humans. However, it often includes lower-quality, mechanically separated meat. We know which we would
prefer to eat and we’re confident your pet will agree too!
For more details on
choosing quality meats for your dog, check out our popular blog.
We pride ourselves on ethically sourcing all our meat from family farms with high welfare standards
and locally sourcing our wholefood and superfood ingredients, ensuring your dog gets the best in both
nutrition and flavour.
