Making the dinners our dogs deserve
-
Currently, most of the UK’s mass-produced dog food is made up of a hodgepodge of waste products, mystery fillers and preservatives that ensure a shelf life longer than the Lord of the Rings trilogy. This has led to millions of dogs in millions of households suffering due to their poor diet.
-
We wanted to help change that - working alongside vet nutritionists, we created four different meals that contain just the right mix of top-notch ingredients. Our mission’s far from over, but we’re making great progress. Fussy eaters are gobbling down meals and dogs with regularly upset stomachs are showing, shall we say, a solid improvement.
Who we are
Dave (as told by Kev)
Dave is a crazy dog man in training. He tries to deliver as many boxes as possible himself so he can meet (and hug) as many of the Butternut Box gang as possible.
A keen motorbiker, he’s currently trying to work out how to get Rudie to sit still in a sidecar.
Apart from The Lumineers, he has no knowledge of any music released after 1999.
Kev (as told by Dave)
Kev and I met on the first day of our old job. We started on the same day and quit on the same day.
He once delivered a box to a client whilst sleepwalking. Ask him about it.
His Spotify collection consists exclusively of house music.
A keen fan of hats, when he’s not dressing his Lab, Ace, in a sombrero (more often than you’d think), he’s building up his own headwear collection.
Giving a bit back
We know not every dog can be as lucky as a Butternut Box dog. That’s why, for every new furry customer that signs up with us, we donate a much-needed meal to a less fortunate dog that’s found itself homeless or in a shelter.
An expert's view...
"As a dog trainer and behaviourist with a strong interest in health and nutrition I can recommend Butternut Box food for all dogs. It’s incredible quality in terms of ingredients and variety."
