The dogs love the food and it's great for travelling and camping as raw food needs a freezer. I also asked for the subscription to come out on my pay day which was a service they didn't offer before.... See more

Order was processed quickly

Order was processed quickly, and arrived promptly in the post! The packaging was lovely and my doggies goodies were very thoughtfully wrapped in tissue paper!

Pros and cons

Pros: raw/air dried, some wild meat, quick delivery, good packaging.

Cons: 10% glycerol in the formulation (carb/sugar) definitely isn't ideal. I have a Burmese cat and they are susceptible to diabetes. Would much prefer the majority of ingredients to be those available in the wild.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It is good to hear you were pleased with our quick delivery, and the packaging of your order.

I am sorry you would prefer our food not to contain glycerol. Glycerol levels vary between products depending on the recipe and are between 6% and 10% before the drying process. Our glycerol is derived 100% from rapeseed oil (no palm oil!) and this helps to give our products the semi-moist texture dogs and cats love.

It is always helpful to receive feedback from our customers, as we use this to help us consider product developments and improvements in the future.

Best wishes,
The Innocent Hound

Great product and service

I have been a customer for a few years, my dog really enjoys the food and there is a varied menu to choose from. I use the subscription service, I am easily able to pause it or change the date of the delivery. The whole process is quick, easy and efficient and any messages I send are responded to very quickly.

Highly recommend

Highly recommend. Its hard to get Air dried raw in UK. There are some companies that import from EU but The Innocent Hound is UK sourced foods which really appeals to me. My girl is a raw diet girl but I wanted another option for when I travel or have to be away and my girl stays with family who aren't keen on handling the raw stuff. I looked into air dried throughly before a sample try and I was impressed at how nutritious and healthy air dried is, its the same as raw in fact. My girl took to the air dried immediately and she is a picky fussy eater. I have since purchased a box and intend on ordering another. This is a truly great alternative for people who aren't keen on raw feeding, great for people who travel with their 4 paws when raw feeding is difficult due to the needed freezing. I have to say, the packaging presentation is a marketer dream also. From the box to the reseal bag inside, it fits perfectly in the cupboard, very neat. - To add, the venison sausages treats did not last long, my girl was hooked from the 1st taste. My 1st real order arrived the next day another bonus. I am spreading the word.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It is great to hear you were pleased with our quick delivery, and the quality of the packaging of your order.

Our meat is sourced from carefully approved suppliers in the UK, and our food is made in our human-grade factory in Yorkshire. It is great to hear how much your dog enjoys our food, particularly our venison sausages!

These sausage slices make great…

These sausage slices make great training treats, they can be broken into very small pieces and are semi moist. My dog loves them. Well done!

I ordered yesterday and it arrived today. Brilliant service, I was very impressed. I've been feeding raw but I love the ease of feeding this freeze dried product. The doggies love it too and I have a lot more freezer space.

Always good and fast

This is an occasional purchase for us because it's our dog's secondary food. But every time I've purchased I've had excellent service and fast delivery.

Antler products are great

Really helpful, professional and efficient service - I have bought several antler products for my little Frenchie recently who, despite being small in stature, has a formidable capacity for chewing and absolutely nothing else stands up to him! Can very much recommend.

My puppy loves it!

I have a 5 month old cavapoo who was on kibble from his breeder. I was recommended this food from a friend and I liked the idea it was as good as raw food but without the hassle!
I have had to speak to them a few times to make changes to my subscription and each time they have been extremely friendly and helpful.Also the delivery time is amazing!Last but not least my puppy loves it and I feel I’m doing the right thing despite it being quite expensive.
