Loved by thousands of dogs. Even the fussiest.

They’re not fussy. They’re bored.

Look closely at most dog food and it barely looks like food - and certainly doesn’t smell like it.

Even supposedly premium fresh foods are brown and paste-like.

So if it doesn’t look or smell like food… is it actually food? Would you be excited to eat that, twice a day, every day?

Sound familiar?

They sniff the bowl and walk away.

You've turned into a short-order cook: warming it, topping it, stirring something in just to get them to eat.

They eat a piece at a time, or leave half behind.

You're on your fourth brand, and the cupboard's full of bags they went off within a week.

You've started to think they're "just not that food-motivated."

That's not fussiness. It's a dog that's bored of the same beige bowl, every single day.

So we made fresh food that's impossible to ignore

Real British meat and veg. Slow-cooked for two hours, not blasted for ten minutes. Chunky enough to see what’s in it. And it smells unmistakably like food.

Meat and veg you can actually see
Not “some random mush”. Recognisable veg, proper chunks of meat, so you can see and smell exactly what they’re eating.
Slow-cooked for 2 hours, to develop flavour
Not blasted for 10 minutes like many foods. Low and slow lets the flavour fully develop - the difference between food they tolerate and food they can’t wait for.
100% British meat, cooked in West Sussex by people who love dogs
No mystery sourcing. Cooked in small batches by a team who’d happily eat it themselves - and have.
Superfood sups
Salmon oil for a radiant coat. Green lipped mussels for supple joints. Turmeric to support happy tummies. Every part of their wellbeing, in one delicious bowl.
Grain-free
We’ve swapped heavy fillers for a vibrant blend of wholesome vegetables to make sure every meal is as easy to digest as it is exciting to eat.

Bring excitement back to mealtimes.

The moment the bowl goes down and they come alive.

The spin. The lip-smack. The 5pm hassling because they know it's coming.

The bowl licked clean, then licked again.

The best part of their day - and yours.

Healthy and happy

For a healthier dog too

We set out to make the tastiest food they’d ever eat.

It just happens to be real, natural and good for them too - and a few weeks in, owners tell us they start noticing more than a clean bowl...

  • More energy & playfulness: No more post-meal slumps or sugar spikes. Just consistent energy for walks, play, and everything in between.
  • Less sensitive stomach: You’ll see firmer, smaller, and much healthier poos that make garden tidying a doddle.
  • Softer, shinier coat: Say goodbye to excessive shedding. Expect a softer, shinier coat that feels as good as it looks.
  • Itch-free & carefree: With no nasties or fillers, sensitive skin finally calms down and heals.

Best dog food
My two cocker spaniels have been on this food for around 8 months now. Have tried most diets after my dog started with allergies and this gives the best quality of ingredients (allergic to offal found in butternut box and similar) and varety of flavours he can still have (cant have chicken/beef). Wish subscription page was easier to edit eg if dogs weight changes etc as have to do a new subcription for them. Recent prob with order (dpd prob) and rhey rectified quickly even though not their fault. My dog was literally crying with anticipation after a day and half of not having it.

Thank you so much
Thank you so much , I have contemplated the type of food for my cocker spaniel puppy.
Thought I would give this a try after reading about the ingredients so switched from kibble.
Winnie loves these meal she literally dances when I bring out the tubs.
Stools more formed and really pleased with this.
Whilst quite pricey worth the money so far. Thank you

Really impressed with Paws on Plates
Really impressed with Paws on Plates. Ordering. delivery, storage and amendments are all easy to arrange but most importantly, I believe, the food is good and my dog adores it!
Their website explains clearly and simply their approach to dog food and it's done wonders for my hound. She has trimmed down to her ideal weight and her coat is lovely and shiny. The food comes frozen and once defrosted smells absolutely delicious....we've been tempted to try it for an evening meal ourselves!! (not really). As for expense; yes, it is costly but it is worth every penny.

Best dog food
Only recently started my pup on paws on plates due to him having sensitive tummy and having tried lots of other different foods. He now licks his bowl clean which he has not done for a long time. It’s so nice to find a food that he actually likes and no longer has tummy issues. The customer service has been amazing and the food quality is amazing I would definitely recommend to family and friends and will continue to use. Sam has been amazing and nothing has been too much trouble and any problems (my fault not paws on plates) has been resolved quickly

Dog food done right
Heard of these guys through all about dog food and I was impressed with their quality Vs cost compared to Years / different dog etc. We are now on our third month and the dogs love it, we had no issues with jippy tummies on the transition. The packaging is far superior to years, it's cardboard, rinses incredibly easy and can be popped in the recycling when done. I had to contact support as we kept running out two days before our next delivery, Sam was helpful and re-sent me the recommended portions for our dogs. Turns out I had been overfeeding one of them! So all on all I'm really impressed with this young company, they're relatively local to us, and seem to be doing everything right!

Excellent
First class customer service. Sam very quickly responded to my query and helped me with my first order. My working cocker needs to be on a gluten free diet so Paws on Plates is perfect for her. She loves the recipes and had no issues with the transition from her previous fresh food (which contained gluten) to Paws on Plates.

The questions every owner asks.

Isn't fresh food expensive?

Less than most owners fear - especially once you stop binning food they won't touch, and realise the quality they're getting. Real British meat, slow-cooked and portioned for your dog. As one customer put it: "worth every penny - I know they're getting the best." And your first 2 boxes are 25% off.

What if my dog is really fussy?

That's exactly who this is for. The reviews above are almost all from owners who'd "tried everything." Start with a small box and see for yourself. Plus try risk-free with our 30-day money back guarantee.

Will switching upset their stomach?

We give you a simple slow-transition plan, and most owners report zero tummy trouble: "we transitioned slowly with zero issues." You're never doing it alone - message us any time.

Is the food suitable for puppies?

Yes - our recipes are complete and balanced for every life stage, with plans tailored to your dog's age and needs.

What makes you different from the big brands?

We're a small British team in West Sussex who cook real food for dogs we'd feed our own - not a factory line. Visible meat and veg, not brown paste. And when you email, a real person answers.
