PRODUCTION: Our insect protein is sourced from The Netherlands.

We also produce our food in The Netherlands, in close proximity to the insect facility.

Insects are incredibly nutrient-rich. They are an animal protein source, rich in the same essential nutrients that your puppy would get from traditional meat. This means that insects contain all the protein and amino acids your dog needs to grow, get energy and build muscles.

As a bonus, the black soldier fly larvae have high digestibility, which means that your pup can easily digest and absorb the valuable protein. On top of that, our amazing insects also provide essential fatty acids and minerals!

Our puppy diet contains higher levels of a specific omega-3 fatty acid called Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). DHA is essential for a healthy development of the puppy's brain, retina and nervous system

Our diets contains healthy dietary fibers and prebiotics from natural sources, which has proven beneficial effects on the intestinal bacterial flora. Just like in humans, research has shown how a healthy intestinal flora in dogs has positive effects on the body's well-being and general immune system. Nutrients that feed the good bacteria in the gut are called prebiotics. Our feed contains several natural prebiotics, to give the good intestinal bacteria optimal conditions to thrive. Dietary fiber contributes with an increased feeling of satiety, a healthy movement of intestines and passage time of the feed. In our feed, among other ingredients, beetroot contributes with natural dietary fibre. This, in combination with our products being naturally gluten free, make them extra kind to the digestive system.

Our products are packed with nutrition from natural and carefully selected ingredients, and added vitamins and minerals. Insects is our only animal ingredient - the rest is plant based. Our insects are resistant to disease and grow quickly on their own. Thanks to this, our production is completely free of unwanted substances such as antibiotics and growth hormones.
