What Your Dog Eats Matters
We created Darcie's Kibble because we believed dogs deserved better than meat meal and filler. Every recipe starts with freshly prepared meat, gently cooked at low temperatures to lock in nutrition and flavour. Grain-free. No artificial colours or preservatives. Just honest food made with ingredients chosen for a reason.
Freshtrusion® Technology
Most kibble is processed at extreme temperatures, destroying nutrients before they reach your dog's bowl. We do things differently.
Every Darcie's recipe contains 50% total meat content with a minimum 26% freshly prepared protein. Using Freshtrusion®, we gently cook real meat at just 82°C — low enough to preserve natural vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. The result is a more digestible, more nutritious kibble your dog can genuinely thrive on.

Why Grain Free?
Many dogs struggle to digest grains like wheat, corn, and soy — leading to itchy skin, digestive issues, and low energy. Every Darcie's recipe replaces grain with sweet potato and potato for slow-release energy without the digestive burden.
Sweet potato is naturally rich in fibre, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants. Better digestion means better nutrient absorption, less waste, and a happier, healthier dog.
What Goes Into Every Bag
Freshly prepared meat — real protein your dog can absorb, not rendered meat meal.
Sweet potato & potato — grain-free carbohydrates for sustained energy.
Omega-3 supplement — for healthy skin, a glossy coat, and flexible joints.
Prebiotics MOS & FOS — to support beneficial gut bacteria and digestion.
Naturally preserved — with rosemary extract. No artificial colours or preservatives.

Available in Chicken, Duck, Lamb, and Salmon & Trout — all grain-free with the same Freshtrusion® quality your dog deserves.
Common Questions
How much should I feed my dog?
Feeding amounts depend on your dog's weight, age, and activity level. As a general guide, an average adult dog (10–25kg) needs around 150–300g per day, split across two meals. Active dogs and working breeds may need more. Check the feeding guide on your specific bag for detailed recommendations.
How should I transition my dog to Darcie's?
We recommend a gradual transition over 7–10 days. Start with 25% Darcie's mixed with 75% of your current food, then increase to 50/50, then 75/25, before switching fully. This gives your dog's digestive system time to adjust.
Is Darcie's suitable for puppies?
Our current range is formulated for adult dogs (12 months and over). We're working on puppy recipes — join our newsletter to be the first to know when they launch.
What's the difference between Adult and Small Breed?
Our Small Breed recipes feature a smaller 8mm kibble (vs 14mm for Adult) that's easier for little mouths, with slightly adjusted protein levels to match the higher metabolic rate of smaller dogs. Both ranges use the same high-quality grain-free formulation with freshly prepared meat.
Can I mix Darcie's with wet food?
Absolutely. Darcie's works great on its own or mixed with wet food for added variety. If mixing, reduce the kibble portion slightly to account for the extra calories.
My dog has allergies. Is Darcie's suitable?
Darcie's is grain-free and free from artificial additives, making it suitable for dogs with grain intolerance or sensitivity. Our Duck and fish-based recipes are novel protein options often well-tolerated by dogs with common protein allergies. Always check the full ingredient list and consult your vet if your dog has known allergies.
How should I store Darcie's Kibble?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, seal the bag tightly or transfer to an airtight container. Use within 6 weeks of opening for the best quality. Unopened bags have an 18-month shelf life.
