Very good quality dog food. Reasonable priced and big plus for giving freedom to customers to purchase more than one of the same 10kg boxes, something that it wouldn’t let me do before. My only compla... See more

Quality under one roof

I wouldn’t go anywhere else, from the quality of the food to the staff, everything is spot on. I go once a month a stock a freezer, they always have their freezers stocked to the brim, so supply is never an issue. In fact there is never anything they can’t do for you, they even have treats for well behaved dogs. Go try them out, they even do deliveries.

Very disappointing experience with First Choice Nutrition (Oldham).

Our delivery was left on a busy main road in direct sunlight instead of in the dedicated delivery box we have at the back of the house for frozen raw food orders. I had to leave work to rush home from work and retrieve it before it defrosted or was stolen. According to Ryan the owner, it was a ‘win’ it even got delivered….

When I emailed further to advise we weren’t impressed, we were advised by Ryan not to order again and calling my complaint a “moany arse email”.

This was only my second order and the second problem (the first being split open food which was sorted) . Completely unprofessional customer service.

very good product made by someone who cares

we've got 3 boxer dogs and they absolutely love it all, clean bowls every time :-D
very good customer service, Amber and the owner Ryan are just amazing, friendly, professional, remember every single name of their clients as well as dogs.
the quality is really good, very competitive prices as well.
we tried the "new" delivery system but unfortunately it doesn't work for us, easier for us to pick it all and get it in the boot of the car.
absolutely recommend any day.

Highly recommended raw food supplier

We struggled for years with gut issues with our Cane Corso and Staffy when using other raw brands. We’ve been using First Choice Nutrition for nearly 6 months now and have had zero issues. Both dogs are healthy, settled, and doing really well on it.

These guys came highly recommended by our dog trainers and the delivery has always been spot on.

Highly recommended.

I have been searching for an affordable quality product to feed two Labradors for quite a while. They are demolishing about 40kg a month and First Choice has allowed me to feed them an only raw diet. Both boys love it, they are healthy, full of energy and have brilliant teeth. Amazing product and price.

The best raw food company in the UK

I don’t normally leave reviews, but for First Choice, I felt I had to.

As an owner of 3 large breeds (who eat a lot) it was important to me to find a raw food company that is competitively price, but that didn’t compromise on quality.

I tried a very popular raw brand based in Durham that came up very competitively priced, but the quality of the meat was awful. The bone content was higher than stated on the packaging and it was really watery.

I then tried a higher end brand, the quality was fantastic, but it was very expensive to feed 3 large dogs.

Then I came across First Choice Nutrition after seeing it recommended time and time again. The price was a good starting point, and when the food arrived I couldn’t believe the quality. And our 3 dogs lose their MINDS over it!! They have never once refused a meal, and it is super budget friendly too! If you order the bundles, it works out even cheaper than the cheap brand I had tried before!

I recommend First Choice to anyone and everyone who owns a dog. I couldn’t be happier, and will never shop anywhere else.

Thank you FCN!

I ordered very late before Xmas and Ryan was extremely helpful and took my order. It was delivered by Royal Mail and the courier was very helpful carrying my delivery down to where my freezer is. I highly recommend First Choice Nutrition. My dogs really enjoy the different varieties.

Our dog loves it!

Our dog loves it!

Fabulous quality and a good price. So far so good with Royal Mail delivery too.

Dottie was scratching and just not enjoying her old diet. Since a move to raw feed she's thriving, her coat is so glossy and no scratching.
