Nala the Whippet and the Search for Suitable Food

Shortly after Nala the whippet joined our family we noticed that her delicate stomach couldn’t handle dog food containing high quantities of grain or artificial additives. After trialling a variety of foods and doing extensive research, we found a gap in the market for affordable dry food that is fresh, nutritious and a range of diets to suit all our needs.

That’s what inspired us to make our own food, both for Nala and the many other dogs with sensitive tummies. We teamed up with industry experts and created a range of balanced, premium dog food high in protein, vitamins & minerals made right here in Wales, UK!

Nala & friends combines sumptuous taste with Omega 3 and a bunch of prebiotics, which encourage the healthy lifestyle of your dog, keeping their skin supple and their coat shiny. All the recipes in our range are made using locally sourced, freshly prepared meats which we’ve preserved with Rosemary extract to ensure our pup and her friends get only the best meals.

Nala loves sharing food with all her pals. Try the range and join the gang of Nala & friends!

We use 100% British proteins and only the highest quality products to create our natural dog food, then coat it with natural extracts to naturally preserve the freshness and flavours of every pack. That’s right – you won’t find artificial flavours, colouring or preservatives in our meals!

We keep all these natural ingredients chilled during transportation to make sure they stay fresh and nutritious, then bake each batch at a lower temperature and use state-of-the-art technology to dry coat it. This is how we ensure that all our meals maintain the full set of natural nutrients your dog needs for a healthy and balanced diet, while also packing in delicious flavours that entice even the fussy eaters.

Each bag of Nala & Friends dog food is sealed by us and packed full of goodness. Here’s what you can expect from all our recipes:

  • Only the finest British ingredients
  • Slowly baked to lock in the flavours and nutrients
  • A variety of Premium natural ranges that your furry friend will love!
  • Packed full of fresh vegetables like the Vitamin B rich sweet potato – a complex carbohydrate which makes an excellent alternative to grains
  • A minimum of 45% fresh British meat content in our Grain Free Range, which makes them incredibly tasty and great for fussy dogs!
  • Seasoned with scrumptious plants and extracts
  • Enriched with natural carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals to fuel an active lifestyle
  • Added Omega 3 Supplement which helps support healthy skin and coat
  • Digestive health benefits thanks to the pre-biotics MOS (Mannan-oligosaccharides) & FOS (Fructo-oligosaccharides), which help to promote the growth of healthy gut bacteria and aid digestion
  • Hypoallergenic

Basically, all your dog needs to look and feel paw-some!

Creating the art on the pack was another labour of love which we undertook with the same enthusiasm as creating the food itself. Teaming up with our fabulous artist Rohanna Aston, crafted stunning visuals which perfectly reflect who Nala & Friends are, capturing the playful spirit of our beloved whippet and the joy we hope our dog food brings to all canines.

Adding that sprinkle of craft by supporting artists to bring joy to something that can be percieved as boring. We hope you and your pooch can both love Nala & Friends from inside and outside the bag!

Meet the Family

Most who know us, know us as the Burgers! We live in Cardiff, Wales and have been together for a little 15 years now. We are quite the pack, you have hoomans Lee & Katie and our little 2 year old daughter Tilly, we are joined by our furry friends Nala (whippet), Coco & Bambi (Siamese cats). Nala thinks she’s rules the roost but reality is she’s a big whimp and Coco takes the Boss role. Tilly is certainly making her presence be known and fair to say both Mum & Dad find themselves at the bottom!

We have many passions ranging from Cheer dance, long walks, socialising and running.
