Brunswick Fur Food
Fresh dog food
The importance of tailored nutrition for senior dogs
A senior dog's dietary needs differ from those of younger pups. Ageing dogs often require a balance of protein, healthy fats, and essential vitamins to maintain muscle mass, support joint health, and boost their immune system. Our range of dog food for senior dogs is carefully formulated to meet these specific nutritional requirements.

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! 🐶
The food is step one. Here's the whole growth path.
Your puppy's nutrition needs change fast in the first two years — here's how we keep up at every stage.
-
1
8–12 weeks · Settling In
Small, frequent meals (3–4/day) on a softened, easy-to-digest recipe while your puppy adjusts to solid food and a new home.
-
2
3–6 months · Peak Growth
Calorie and protein needs rise fast during teething and the biggest growth spurt — portions increase weekly, not monthly.
-
3
6–12 months · Building Muscle
Growth rate slows and steadies. Meals shift to 2/day, with continued joint and coat support as coordination develops.
-
4
12–24 months · Adult Transition
Small breeds are usually ready for adult portions around 10–14 months; large and giant breeds often benefit from staying on a growth-support plan until 18–24 months.
Three recipes. One job each. Built for your puppy's actual needs.
No mystery meals, no fillers. Every Brunswick Fur Food recipe is gently cooked in Melbourne from human-grade ingredients and formulated with our nutrition advisor, Dr. Davide Stefanutti, for all life stages — including growing puppies.
Chicken
Australian free-range chicken meat blended with vitamin and mineral-rich chicken offal — an easily digestible protein that's gentle on growing tummies.
Lamb
Premium Australian lamb meat and offal — our go-to pick for puppies with a sensitive stomach, prone to soft stools or settling into a new food.
Beef
Grass-fed Australian beef blended with nutrient-dense offal, for puppies that need extra energy and support through their biggest growth spurts.

Puppy Food FAQs
Straight answers to the questions we get asked most
What's the best way to start my puppy on fresh food?
Start with our weekly trial pack so your puppy can try a few different meals before you commit to a subscription. If your puppy has been eating kibble, we recommend a gradual transition over 7–10 days rather than a sudden full swap, to help settle their tummy.
Which recipe is best for a puppy with a sensitive tummy?
Our Lamb recipe tends to be the gentlest option, since lamb is naturally easy on sensitive stomachs. We also leave out corn, soy and wheat across all recipes, and add fibre-rich vegetables like sweet potato and pumpkin to help firm up stools.
Do large breed puppies need a different puppy food?
Large and giant breed puppies generally benefit from steady, controlled growth rather than a rapid spurt, since growing too fast can strain developing joints. Our nutrition advisor, Dr. Davide Stefanutti, can help guide portion sizes for bigger breeds — just ask us when you set up your plan.
Is fresh, gently cooked food better than raw or dry kibble?
We don't feed raw — our meals are lightly cooked to make them safe and digestible while keeping as much of the nutritional value as possible, without the handling risks of raw feeding. Compared to dry kibble, gently cooked food tends to be easier to digest and many owners see firmer stools and better energy after switching.
How much should I feed my puppy each day?
It depends on your puppy's current weight, expected adult size, age and activity level, so there's no single number that fits every dog. Get in touch and our team can help you work out a starting portion, and adjust it as your puppy grows.
When do I switch my puppy from puppy portions to adult portions?
Most small and medium breeds are ready between 10 and 14 months, while large and giant breeds often do better staying on a growth-support plan until 18 to 24 months. The clearest sign is growth slowing down as your puppy nears their expected adult weight — your vet can confirm timing at a check-up.
How do I transition my dog onto Brunswick Fur Food?
It depends on what you're currently feeding. If your pup is already on another gently cooked food, the switch is usually quick. Otherwise, we recommend starting with a trial pack and introducing a little more BFF each day so your puppy's tummy has time to adjust.
Is Brunswick Fur Food vet-approved?
Yes — every recipe is formulated by a veterinarian with a PhD in Animal Nutrition, following World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA) guidelines on selecting pet foods, and is suitable as a complete diet for all life stages, including puppies.
How does the subscription and delivery work?
Order a trial box to find the meals your puppy loves, then subscribe for fortnightly delivery of two weekly meal plans — with a 5% discount when you subscribe. You can pause, skip or cancel any time, and if the food doesn't work out for your dog, we'll make it right.
