Frequently asked questions

No, Freeze-Dried Raw requires no preparation other than measuring out your dog’s perfect portion and then serving. For help with daily portions, check out our feeding guide.

The 80/20 formulation refers to 80% meat and 20% fruit and vegetables. 

This format of recipe is often considered the best, all round approach to a complete and balanced diet for dogs. 

Read more about this in our 80/20 Feeding Reading post!

This is a great question, and one of our favourites as we are so proud of all our recipes and what goes into them. 

We've focussed on creating single protein, naturally hypoallergenic, utterly delicious products that dogs go wild for, at the same time as getting all the brilliant goodness of raw feeding. 

To do this, we focussed on simple recipes with premium ingredients that all have nutritional benefits for dog health. 

You can check out all of the ingredients used on our ingredients page.

Unless advised against by a vet, a puppy can be fed a Freeze-Dried Raw diet from the age of 8 weeks. 

We offer a puppy product as part of our range, with the same goodness as the adult recipes and the same 80/20 mix of single protein and specially selected 5 fruit and vegetables. This product has been made specifically for dogs aged 8 weeks to 1 year old to give them the nutrients they need to give them the best start in life.

Using the feeding guide, we recommend feeding at the goal weight of your dog. So, if your dog weighs 10kg but should be more towards 8kg, feed as you would an 8kg dog.

It's always worth consulting with your vet if you need more advise specific to your dog's requirements.

Because our food is raw and not subject to harsh processing, a lot of pets can move onto feeding COYA without a strict transitional period like other traditional formats of food. 

However, some dogs can benefit from a transitional period over the course of one week. 

To take this approach, we recommend mixing 10% of the daily COYA required amount in with your pet's existing food. Gradually increase this over 7 days until your dog is being fed 100% COYA. 

Of course! COYA is designed to be fed as a full diet, a part time feed or a solution when travelling with your dog. 

Make sure you refer to the feeding guide to work out how much to feed per day based on anything else in your dog's diet to avoid over or under feeding.

Our COYA Freeze-Dried Raw Food Toppers are designed to enliven your dog's diet and are traditionally used alongside dry and wet foods. 

Our toppers give a huge increase in palatability as well as nutrition and make dinner time super exciting for your dog! 

Available in 50g tubes, the toppers will last for multiple servings. 

No transition is required to feed your dog the COYA toppers. Please note that these are not complete and balanced and should not be used as a replacement for a full diet.

Yes! Unless advised by your vet, your dog can enjoy COYA as part of their daily diet. 

Our recipes are all made from all natural, real meat and specially selected fruit and vegetables.

We only use 1 single protein in all our products and are range is hypoallergenic, perfect for sensitivities. Check out our ingredients here.

Our products are raw, and therefore not subject to any cooking or application of heat which reduces the potential for aggravating sensitive tummies and other issues. 

We offer recipes for chicken, turkey, pork, beef, and fish so you can choose what protein works best for your dog. If you'd like to try a few options, check out our multi-pack which gives you a selection of 4 flavours to try out.
