Novel & single-protein recipes

The perfect diet for dogs with allergies

Fresh, gently cooked meals built on one protein your dog has almost certainly never eaten — wild Australian kangaroo. No chicken. No beef. No wheat, soy, corn or rice. The clean starting point vets ask for when you're trying to find the trigger.

Does this sound like your dog?

Food reactions rarely show up as one dramatic symptom. They show up as a slow grind of small ones — the kind you've probably been managing for months.

  • 🐾

    Constant paw licking

    Often the first sign owners notice, and the easiest to dismiss.
  • 👂

    Ear infections that keep coming back

    Cleared up with drops, back again six weeks later.
  • Scratching, redness, hot spots

    Belly, armpits, muzzle and between the toes.
  • 💩

    Loose or inconsistent stools

    Good days, bad days, no clear pattern.
  • 💨

    Gas and gurgling gut

    Especially in the hours after a meal.
  • 🥣

    Picky, on-and-off appetite

    Dogs avoid food that makes them feel unwell.

These signs have several possible causes — parasites, environmental allergens and skin infections all look similar. Talk to your vet first. If food is on the list of suspects, an elimination diet is how you find out for certain.

The science, briefly

"Hypoallergenic" only means something if the protein is new

A dog's immune system can only react to a protein it has already met. Chicken and beef are in almost every kibble, treat and dental chew in Australia — which is why swapping one chicken food for another changes nothing.

  • Novel

    A protein your dog has never met

    Most pet foods in Australia use chicken, lamb or beef by-products as their main sources of protein. Our Kangaroo Bowl is a one-of-a-kind bowl that most pet parents may have never tried, exactly the clean slate an elimination diet needs.

  • Single

    One meat, nothing hiding in the mix

    A novel protein only proves something if it is the only protein. Mixed blends make the result unreadable — you learn nothing about what your dog reacts to.

Brunswick Fur Food has been nothing but amazing for our fur baby. Alfie has had an uber sensitive gut since we got him at 8 weeks and runny poos were all we knew. We've moved to BFF about a year ago, and its been the one food that has never upset Alfie's tummy even during the transition phase. He loves and does well with all flavours and we could not be happier! Alfie is alot more settled as a whole due to a happier gut, his coat is shiny and energy levels are well sustained throughout the day. A massive thank you to BFF team, we don't know what we would do without you guys.

If you’re looking for an excellent alternative to canned food for your fur baby then these guys are 100% it. I’ve got a really fussy little guy and I’ve done everything from make my own food for him,gourmet cans,raw food diets,dry/wet food mix and I’ve looked at other companies that promise healthy human grade food but Brunswick Fur Food win, hands down. Not only does it look appetising but he genuinely loves it. I’ve also noticed a change in his well being and that’s just a huge bonus as he’s 9 years old. Cost wise it’s turned out to cost the same as I was spending on canned stuff for him so I can afford it without an issue. My experience with them has been awesome, we love them!

My dogs love this food, healthy, smells yummy and so nutritious and convenient. The service is great and ordering and delivery is quick and easy. This is my third order and the price is not as expensive as other home cooked dog food I’ve seen.

Brunswick Fur Food has the best customer service I have come across in a long time. They are very helpful and efficient. Plus they have top quality pet food delivered straight to your door. No hassles and happy pups!!

We have been ordering from Brunswick Fur Food for sometime now, our Frenchie loves all the varieties. The service from the team is excellent. Highly recommend

I have been ordering from them since Jan 2024 and it’s been a game changer. My pups love the food so much and it’s been so good for their health! Genuinely able to see a difference in my senior dogs. Whenever there has been issues with the delivery or orders, Rahul and Rohini have been amazing to deal with and have gone out of their way to solve it. They are such amazing people and have a true love and passion for dogs! Would highly recommend if you are looking to put your pups on a raw diet that’s beneficial for them.

Sushi my moodle LOVES Brunswick Fur Food! He never has gut problems and wags his tail in excitement every meal 🐕♥️ Unlike other brands I’ve tried, BFF doesn’t smell bad, you can see how fresh and healthy the meals look and the quality is awesome! Sushi says it’s a 10! Woof! 🐶

Vet-approved guide, included free

The food is step one. Here's the whole plan.

An elimination diet only works if it's run properly. Every box comes with our full guide, and we're on the phone if you get stuck partway through.

  1. 1

    Clear the decks

    Remove every other food, treat, chew and flavoured supplement. Tell everyone in the house — one chicken treat can undo weeks of progress.

  2. 2

    Transition over 7–10 days

    Mix your new recipe in gradually using our free transition guide, so the switch itself doesn't upset the gut.

  3. 3

    Feed one protein for 8 weeks

    Nothing else. Keep a short daily note on skin, ears, paws, stools, energy and appetite. Many dogs improve earlier — finish the full 8 weeks anyway.

  4. 4

    Reintroduce, one at a time

    Add a single new protein, watch for a week, then move to the next. By the end you'll know exactly what your dog can and can't eat.

Hypoallergenic dog food FAQ

Find the answers you're looking for!

What actually makes a dog food hypoallergenic?

Open arrow
Close arrow

Two things: a novel protein your dog's immune system has never encountered, and a single-protein recipe with no other meats mixed in. A food that swaps chicken for a chicken-and-lamb blend isn't hypoallergenic in any useful sense — your dog can still react, and you can't tell what to.

Why kangaroo specifically?

Open arrow
Close arrow

Kangaroo is the cleanest novel protein available in Australia — almost no commercial pet food uses it, so most dogs have no prior exposure at all. That makes the result of an elimination trial actually mean something: if the symptoms settle, you know why.

How long before I see a difference?

Open arrow
Close arrow

Digestive signs like loose stools and gas often settle within two to three weeks. Skin and ear symptoms take longer, because the skin needs time to heal — that's why the full trial runs eight weeks. Don't stop early, even if things look better.

Do I need to see a vet first?

Open arrow
Close arrow

Yes, and it's worth doing. Itching, ear infections and loose stools can also come from parasites, environmental allergens or infections. Your vet can rule those out and advise on how to transition your dog. This page isn't veterinary advice.

What if my dog reacts to kangaroo too?

Open arrow
Close arrow

It happens — food allergy is specific to the individual dog. Call us and we'll help you work out the next protein to test, or point you back to your vet if the pattern suggests something other than food.

How is it delivered and stored?

Open arrow
Close arrow

Meals are gently cooked, immediately frozen and delivered frozen across Melbourne and most of Victoria. Keep them in the freezer and move a day's worth to the fridge the night before.

Can I pause or cancel?

Open arrow
Close arrow

Anytime, from your account. Plans run fortnightly or monthly, and you can change portion size as your dog's needs change.
