Natures Menu feeding guide
Natures Menu is a well-known British raw and natural pet food brand, and we stock a range of their formats — mince, nuggets and freeze-dried treats. This is a guide to how the range works in practice, not a feeding plan for your specific dog; for that, the guidance printed on each pack, based on your dog's actual weight, is what to follow.
What's in the range we stock
The core of the Natures Menu range we carry is raw mince in single-protein and blended formats — turkey, chicken and rabbit, and tripe-based mixes — sold frozen, plus the 80/20 nuggets format, which portions the mince into individually frozen pieces that are easier to defrost in the amount you actually need.
Alongside the minces, the range includes freeze-dried treats and superfood bars, which are shelf-stable rather than frozen and work well as a training treat or topper rather than a full meal.
How the formats are typically fed
The mince and nugget formats are generally sold as complete raw diets, meant to be fed as the whole meal rather than mixed in with a kibble, while the freeze-dried treats and bars are extras on top of a main diet rather than a meal replacement.
Every pack carries its own feeding guidance based on weight, because the right amount depends on your individual dog's size, age and activity level — that guidance, not a generic figure, is what to follow, and your vet can help if you are unsure how it applies to your dog specifically.
Practical storage
Because most of the range is frozen, freezer space and defrosting time are the practical considerations rather than anything about the food itself — the nugget format exists specifically to make defrosting a single meal's worth easier than working from a larger frozen block.
Once defrosted, raw food should be treated the same as any raw meat in terms of food hygiene — kept refrigerated, used within the timeframe stated on the pack, and not refrozen once thawed.

Common questions
- Can I mix Natures Menu raw food with dry kibble?
- Most raw feeding guidance suggests keeping raw and dry meals separate by a few hours rather than combining them in one bowl, since they digest at different rates. Feeding them as separate meals in the day is the more commonly recommended approach.
- How much Natures Menu should I feed my dog?
- Follow the feeding guide printed on the specific product, which is based on your dog's weight, and adjust gradually based on their body condition. Your vet can advise if you are unsure whether your dog is getting the right amount.
- Is Natures Menu suitable for puppies?
- Some formats in the range are aimed at puppies specifically, such as the 80/20 puppy nuggets, while others are formulated for adult dogs. Check the specific product's own labelling to confirm it is the right life-stage formula for your dog.
- Can I feed Natures Menu freeze-dried bars as a full meal?
- They are generally intended as a treat or topper rather than a complete meal on their own, so check the specific product's packaging to confirm whether it is labelled as complete or complementary before relying on it as a main feed.
