Food

Aside from being the only pet food that donates 50% of all our profits to helping rescue dogs in need, our food is also different in a good way. We specialise in making high quality complete wet food.

What that means is we only real fresh meat, fruit and veg. Our ingredients are all natural - even down to using natural ingredients as a source of prebiotic and joint care.

Our food is gently steam cooked just once with no pre-processing to ensure it's as nutritious and tasty as nature intended.

At Miraculous Meals we’re obsessive about making sure your dog gets the best quality food. For us that means using the best quality meat we can. It's why we only ever use 100% real meat.

We never use cheap, low quality alternatives like meat meal which is ground up meat and bone, often made from skin, hooves beaks etc.

Our meat comes from meat used in human food. Once the parts intended for human consumption are removed, we use the valuable and nutritious meat that remains. Meaning your dog gets the taste and nutrition it deserves while also helping to minimise the impact on the planet.

Yes. All our recipes are grain-free. The corn and wheat in standard dog food contains a lot of fibre that dogs can't digest. Grain free dog food offers a host of advantages, such as enhanced digestion, improved skin health and increased energy levels.

At Miraculous Meals we care deeply about the health of your dog. For us that means making sure your dog gets the tasty, natural nutrition it needs with zero junk added.

We add NO meat meal - meat meal is made from grinding up poor quality meat, bones, hooves, skin etc and rendering it at high temperature into a brown powder.

We add NO cheap fillers, artificial enhancers or preservatives - we don’t include cheap fillers like Soya, Wheat or Gluten that are hard for dogs to digest and have minimal nutritional benefit. We add no artificial colourings, no artificial taste enhancers, no artificial
aromas and no preservatives. Our food is only made from quality natural, nutritious ingredients that are gently steam cooked to lock in the flavour and goodness.

We add NO artificial flavourings and colourings – we only use 100% real meat that looks like meat and tastes like meat so doesn’t require any enhancing.

Whatever any brand says about kibble we just don't think it's good food. Even if it's made from good ingredients the cooking process involves extreme levels of heat and processing.

Our ethos is to make food that uses the freshest natural ingredients with the least amount of processing possible, all cooked gently to preserve all the natural flavour and goodness.

Two reasons - dogs absolutely love the taste of offal! And it's rich in vitamins, minerals and amino acids and provides vital nutrients not found in other meat.

All the ingredients we use are derived from natural sources, with the exception of the vitamins and minerals we add to our foods. These added nutrients are crucial for achieving nutritional balance in our complete recipes. This is because some vitamins and minerals do not have natural counterparts, and the quality of those that do can vary significantly.

We don’t pre-process our foods. Our balanced, natural ingredients are just chopped up and gently steam cooked only once to lock in the goodness. This means that each tin of food reflects naturally occurring variations within our raw ingredients and is full of natural flavour.

Let's start with what prebiotics actually are and why they're good for your dog. Your dog's gut is home to trillions of beneficial microbes that play a crucial role in the digestion of food, synthesis of vitamins, and maintenance of a robust immune system. However, there are instances when the equilibrium of these microbes is thrown off, leading to an overgrowth of harmful bacteria that can crowd out the beneficial ones.

Probiotics for dogs are live microorganisms that have the potential to re-establish a favourable balance of gut microflora.

Each of our recipes contains chicory root that's a great, proven, natural prebiotic. Wherever possible we always try and provide functional health benefits for your dog by using natural ingredients.

The real meat and nutritious fish we use in our recipes are good natural sources of Omega 3:6. We also add Flaxseed Oil or Salmon Oil to each recipe to ensure our food is rich in Omega 3:6 to support your dog's brain health, skin and coat health, joint mobility, heart health, eye health and immunity.

Yes. There are no official guidelines on which ingredients qualify as hypoallergenic or not and so the definition can vary from one brand to another. In essence it means food that is less likely to cause an allergic reaction. The industry consensus is that to be classed as hypoallergenic, dog food must be free from added wheat, maize, dairy products, soya products and artificial additives, all of which are known to be problematic in sensitive dogs. Our food contains none of these ingredients and is made using only natural, fresh ingredients.

Unlike most brands we only use real meat in our food which is easier for dogs to digest and helps reduces the chance of dogs developing any adverse health affects from the proteins in their food.

It is important to note, that food allergies and intolerances are actually very rare and your dog is much more likely to be suffering from an environmental or seasonal allergy than a food allergy. Dogs can also develop adverse reactions to almost any ingredient, no food is absolutely risk free.

Yes. To qualify as low fat a dog food must contain under 10% fat.

All our foods does:

• Lamb & Beef: 9% fat
• Salmon & Turkey: 6% fat
• Chicken & Turkey: 5.5% fat

Our balanced recipes are made using fresh, naturally healthy ingredients. We only use 100% fresh meat and offal and no cheap, fatty fillers or hard to digest meat meal. This allows us to have a high meat content that gives your dog the nutrition it needs without high levels of fat.

We use real meat so you will see bits of fat in the food that naturally occur in these meats. These bits of fat are great for your dog. Dogs need fat to be healthy - just not too much or too little!

Feeding Miraculous Meals is an excellent (and tasty) way to keep your dog health and manage their weight. As outlined above, within our range the Salmon & Turkey and Chicken & Turkey recipes are very low fat, ideal for pets who need help to attain and maintain their ideal weight.

Yes. Each of our recipes contains the right ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6 which is important in helping support immunity in dogs. Vitamins A, B6, C and E, as well as zinc and selenium are also proven to support immunity and again, we make sure each recipe has the right proportion of each to help keep your dog healthy.

Yes. Our food is made using only 100% fresh meat which dogs are designed to digest. Our food contains absolutely no artificial additives or fillers which are often the cause of upset tummies. And to help make sure your dog's tummy stays happy we add natural prebiotics to our food to aid digestion.

To find out more about our natural prebiotics see the relevant FAQ in the 'Food' section of our FAQs.

Yes. All our food contains Turmeric, proven to be a powerful natural anti-inflammatory that can aid pain relief and reduce joint stiffness in dogs. This will help maintain good joint health in your dog.

If your dog however has an acute joint problem we would recommend that you consult your vet on the appreciate supplement to add to our food to help resolve the issue.

The fish we use in our recipes arrives at the factory frozen; unlike the meat we use which is always chilled. This is because of the short shelf life of fish.

Frozen fish is no less healthy than fresh fish. The flash freezing technique that’s used actually massively reduces the risk of any harmful bacteria that can occur in the manufacturing of fresh fish and with no nutrients lost.

The health of your pet is our top priority. It’s why our food has been developed with highly trained professional (vets, nutritionists and product formulation experts) and undergone extensive nutritional and safety testing.

Complete dog food must meet the nutritional standards for over 30 nutrients. Our food has been precisely formulated and tested to ensure those nutrients are at required levels. Every ingredient we use is proven by research to be nutritious for dogs.

If you dog suffers from diabetes, we would recommended checking
with your veterinarian as to whether or not our food would be suitable to feed to them.
