AWARD WINNING RAW DOG FOOD & DOG SUPPLEMENTS
At ProDog Raw we are passionate about utilising nature’s ‘best’ produce to feed dogs. We are advocates for supporting a dog’s health and wellbeing by feeding them quality, fresh whole foods, just as they have evolved to eat— as such, our planet is at the centre of everything we do.
Our planet provides the natural and nutritious ingredients that go into each and every one of our products. Which is why we endeavour to care and protect it in every way we can. We know it is important our actions as a food manufacturer are as ecologically friendly as possible.
With guidance from the experts we've created the best packaging possible with two key objectives:
As a result, almost every part of ProDog packaging is recyclable, biodegradable and/or reusable.
Polypropylene (PP) – Tubs and lids made from PP- 100% recyclable, fully approved for food contact and BPA free. PP has the highest recyclability rate in the UK for food produce approved packaging and is “multi-use” plastic, meaning our tubs can be reused.
Distinctive yellow packaging – Dogs see in 2 colours, blue and yellow; we made sure our tubs were easily recognisable to our canine critics whilst also being easily identifiable to recycling services. Plastics which aren’t easily recognisable as PP often end up in landfill.
The Label – Also made from PP, “In-Mould Labelling” (IML) means the entire pack is made from the same material, increasing ease of recyclability and less waste than an additional sleeve.
Delivery boxes –We’ve selected a highly durable box-within-a-box packaging with honeycomb cardboard padding and an inner coating for insulation. This robust design ensures your ProDog favourites arrive safely. The entire box is easily recyclable in household paper recycling, eliminating the need for extra insulation materials.
Ice packs are made from fully recyclable LDPE 4 plastic.
Recyclable, ziplock supplement packets – In 2024, we launched recyclable, resealable supplement packaging. Printed using carbon-neutral processes, these pouches preserve nutritional composition, minimise waste and are made from fully recyclable LDPE 4 plastic.
Fully recyclable treat packaging – Made from fully recyclable LDPE 4 plastic and printed using carbon neutral printing processes. Less energy, less waste, means a smaller carbon footprint than conventional printed packaging.
Zero packaging for select treats – A number of our large robust treats no longer arrive packaged, those that can ‘safely’ be added to your box, without the need for additional packaging, will arrive naked and ready to be enjoyed by your dog.
Local arrangements for recycling vary, check with your local authority’s provision. For comprehensive information about our packaging and further advice about recycling, read ‘Our Packaging Promise‘.
Our incentives are thoughtfully designed to encourage our customers to join us in being kinder to the planet, whilst supporting them to receive the best value for money
Incentive 1
Fill your delivery box and receive treat rewards for your dog.
The aim – filling boxes reduces delivery frequency, saving money and carbon emissions.
Incentive 2
Buy bundles and subscribe, to receive free delivery and discounts on food prices.
The aim – Bundles and subscription renewal orders means we know in advance volumes of product needed each month, improving production efficiencies and reducing wastage. These efficiency savings we pass on to our customers by discounting bundles.
We believe passionately livestock animals should not suffer to feed others.
For decades factory-farmed meat has been acceptable to use in pet food (and human food). Yet modern nutritional science demonstrates that happy, healthy grass-fed livestock provide meat far more nutritionally rich.
The impact on the environment of intensive factory farming and the ethical considerations are well documented, which is why all our British ingredients are from DEFRA approved and British Farm certified suppliers. ALL our meat is of human-quality, either from ethically managed wild sources or farms operating with the best possible welfare practices (and, wherever possible, the livestock is pasture reared).
Proud to lend a helping paw
There are many ways to make a difference in an animal’s life.
A big thank you to our customers and supporters. Together we are sprinkling a little ProDog magic amongst those most in need.
Making a difference to our world’s endangered animals
ProDog are proud sponsors of Shinga; the newest specialist trained anti-poaching dog to come from Dogs 4 Wildlife training camp.
Between January and December 2021, 451 rhinos were devastatingly slaughtered for their horn in South Africa. Shinga and courageous dogs, just like her, work every day to protect these endangered animals; something that wouldn’t be possible without the intense specialist training provided by Dogs 4 Wildlife, and the dedicated work of rangers at Imire Rhino and Wildlife Sanctuary.
ProDog are honoured to be in a position to sponsor Shinga. By providing her with the best quality raw food and natural nutritional supplements we’ve helped to fuel her to operate at the peak condition necessary for the important work she does. Our support has also funded the intense training she has needed to become a highly focused, dedicated anti-poaching dog, as well as transport costs to ensure the long journey to her new home was a safe one.
Recently deployed to Imire Rhino and Wildlife sanctuary in Zimbabwe each and every ProDog customer can smile knowing you played a part too.
Thank you

The dog lovers event of the year.
Held annually over Black Friday weekend Dog Friday is all about spoiling your woofer and raising lots of money for dog charities.
Look out for information every year during November about how you can get involved.
Previous celebrations have included:
Every year we help to feed dogs in need with our healthy and nutritious raw meals.
For every tub gifted by you we’ll match it and send them to our nominated rescue centres; Holly Hedge and All Dogs Matter. Simply place your gift order, and we’ll do the rest.
Dedicated to Educating
Our products serve to meet one aspect of our mission to help dogs thrive.
We also invest a great deal of time and energy on initiatives designed to inspire and educate people of the science backed facts of canine nutrition and the benefits of species-appropriate feeding.
Sadly, there are still many myths, misconceptions and unhelpful (and inaccurate) media messages fuelling consumers’ worries about feeding a raw food diet. We understand that 80 years of pet food corporation marketing messages can’t be undone overnight. This is why education has been integral to growth and part of the overall experience for all staff and customers since ProDog was founded.
Our aim is to empower our customers with the knowledge they need to CONFIDENTLY make the switch to feeding a natural raw diet. Teaching just one person about the benefits of feeding a natural raw diet widens the ripple effect further and has the potential to improve yet more dog’s lives.
