Butcher's puppy food
Butcher's is a well known UK canned dog food brand, and their puppy recipe applies the same tinned, meat-based format to a formula built for a growing dog's higher nutrient needs. We stock a selection of the Butcher's range, including their puppy food.
What the puppy recipe is for
Growing puppies need more protein, fat and certain minerals relative to their size than an adult dog does, to support bone and muscle development. Butcher's puppy recipe is formulated with this in mind, in the same tinned, meat-based style the brand is known for across its adult range.
A canned puppy food like this is typically fed alongside a complete dry puppy food or on its own if labelled as complete, so it is worth checking the specific product's labelling for how it is meant to be used, since not every canned recipe is designed as a sole diet.
What we stock, and who it suits
Our range includes Butcher's Puppy Perfect dog food cans alongside a selection of their adult recipes such as tripe, chicken and beef and liver in jelly. We stock a selection from the wider Butcher's range rather than every product they make, and what is available can change as stock does.
This tends to suit owners who prefer a wet, meat-based food for their puppy and want a widely available, familiar brand, rather than those specifically looking for a dry kibble or a raw diet.

Common questions
- When should a puppy switch from puppy food to adult food?
- This varies by breed size — smaller breeds mature faster and can often switch from around nine to twelve months, while larger breeds may need puppy food for up to eighteen months or longer. Your vet can advise on timing based on your specific dog.
- Is canned puppy food a complete diet on its own?
- Check the specific product's label, since some canned foods are complete and balanced on their own while others are meant to be fed alongside a dry complete food. Butcher's labels each product clearly, so this is worth checking before deciding how to feed it.
- Does Giddy Pets stock the whole Butcher's range?
- No, we stock a selection from the wider range rather than every recipe Butcher's makes. What is shown in the grid above reflects what we currently have available to order, and that can change as stock does.
- My puppy doesn't like the change to a new food — what should I do?
- Introduce any new food gradually over several days, mixing it with what they are already eating rather than switching all at once, and watch their appetite and stools as you go. If they seem genuinely unwell or refuse to eat for more than a day, speak to your vet.
