Butternut Box

Watch the scales

As your dog starts to enjoy their senior years, a decrease in activity is inevitable. Excess weight can lead to many health issues, such as increased pressure on joints, diabetes and heart conditions. This can impact their mobility, activity and sadly lead to a shortened lifespan. You want to do the best for your older dog, so the best option is to not let your them become overweight in the first place. This is where Butternut Box can help. We carefully calculate your dog’s calories according to their age, weight and energy requirements.

All the good stuff

All Butternut Box meals are 100% grain free. Our fibre comes from gently cooked lentils, gently cooked vegetables and seeds, leaving a fuller for longer feeling. Using only human grade fresh meat, never meat meal or animal derivatives, your dog’s body can process this protein with greater ease. Freshly cooked vegetables are filled with healthy antioxidants, which help protect against cellular aging and damage. All our meals are filler, sweetener and preservative free, meaning it’s gentler on your mature dog’s digestive system.

Perfectly portioned

You might find it tricky to work out how much your dog should be eating: it depends on their age, breed, weight and how much exercise they’re getting. Did you know dogs who remain slim tend to live 15% longer than their chubbier brothers and sisters. Not only that, but they develop illnesses later in life. This means, dogs who eat just right, live a longer and better life. By perfectly portioning every meal, Butternut Box calculates exactly how much your older dog needs to eat.

How Butternut Box can help

Butternutters tell us that their pups have healthier skin, higher energy levels and their stools improve on our food. The quality of our ingredients may have something to do with that.

Healthy mix of vegetables containing natural prebiotics.

Our meals are 60% fresh, human-grade meat. All our protein is sourced in the UK.

We use healthy carbs such as sweet potato & lentils - that release energy slowly.

"Like two angels coming from nowhere, they came and said ‘we can do the cooking for you’. I would be lost without having that delivery every week because it just makes my life so much easier.”
