On the fat content

At 15.6% fat, this is a higher-energy recipe than a standard maintenance raw food, which Natural Instinct pitch at working dogs specifically. A dog with a lower activity level fed this as its everyday diet could put on weight faster than expected, so it's worth matching the recipe to the dog's actual workload rather than the name on the pack.

Why we chose it

Duck as the main ingredient gives an option for a dog that's already eating chicken or beef elsewhere in its diet. The higher fat content is the actual point of a 'working dog' recipe, so it earns its place as a distinct product rather than being folded into the standard range.

— Matt, founder

Full description

A working dog burns through calories a pet dog never will, which is the whole reason a 'working dog' recipe almost always means one thing: more fat than the standard version of the same food.

This one is sold and stored frozen, built around 85% duck (including bone) with apple, butternut squash, carrot, kelp, salmon oil and spinach, plus added vitamin C. It's formulated as a complete diet rather than something to feed alongside another food.

On the fat content. At 15.6% fat, this is a higher-energy recipe than a standard maintenance raw food, which Natural Instinct pitch at working dogs specifically. A dog with a lower activity level fed this as its everyday diet could put on weight faster than expected, so it's worth matching the recipe to the dog's actual workload rather than the name on the pack.

Who it's for: working dogs, or genuinely high-activity pet dogs, who need more energy in their daily food than a standard complete diet provides.
