The Grateful Pet Gently Cooked Cage-free Duck (Dog Food) is a complete and balanced fresh meal for dogs of all life stages. Made in Singapore from human-grade, cage-free duck and a carefully selected blend of organ meats, vegetables, and functional superfoods, each recipe is gently cooked at 80°C to preserve nutrients and natural flavour while eliminating common pathogens. Every batch is AAFCO-balanced, NRC-compliant, and vet-reviewed.

This recipe uses cage-free cage-free duck alongside heart and liver for a broad amino acid and micronutrient profile, supported by pumpkin, spinach, carrot, and zucchini for fibre and phytonutrients. Functional ingredients including New Zealand green-lipped mussel, reishi mushroom, prebiotic seaweed, and activated curcumin round out a meal designed to support joint health, gut function, and overall vitality.

Why fresh food? Gently cooked meals retain significantly more bioavailable nutrients than ultra-processed alternatives. The Grateful Pet's recipes contain no artificial preservatives, fillers, corn, soy, or feed-grade ingredients. What you see on the ingredient list is exactly what goes into every pack.

Benefits

High-quality, ethically sourced protein. Duck is a rich, flavourful protein with a higher fat content that provides sustained energy. It is also a less common protein, making it a useful option for dogs on a rotational diet or those with sensitivities to more common meats.

Functional superfoods in every pouch. New Zealand green-lipped mussel is widely recognised for its natural source of glucosamine and omega-3 fatty acids, traditionally associated with joint and mobility support. Reishi mushroom and spirulina are traditionally associated with immune function, while wolfberry and dandelion root extract are traditionally associated with antioxidant and liver-supportive properties. Activated curcumin offers antioxidant properties, and prebiotic seaweed supports healthy gut flora.

Gentle cooking, maximum nutrition. Cooked at 80°C, a lower temperature than conventional methods, to retain more vitamins, minerals, and natural flavour while ensuring food safety.

Complete and balanced. AAFCO-balanced and NRC-compliant for all life stages, with a calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of 1.6 : 1 and an EPA-to-DHA ratio of 1.3 : 1.

Feeding Guide

Feed approximately 3 to 5% of your dog's ideal body weight per day, split across two meals. Puppies aged 3 to 11 months (or dogs who have not yet reached their ideal weight) should be fed 6 to 8% of their current weight. Senior dogs with lower metabolism may need closer to 3%. Adjust portions based on your dog's activity level, condition, and individual needs.

Note on curcumin. This recipe contains activated curcumin extract from turmeric. The natural yellow pigments may temporarily colour the mouth area of dogs with white or light-coloured coats. This can be removed by wiping your dog's mouth with a damp cloth straight after each meal.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is gently cooked dog food?

Gently cooked food is prepared at lower temperatures (80°C) than conventional cooking methods. This helps retain more of the natural vitamins, minerals, and flavour in each ingredient while still eliminating common pathogens. It offers a middle ground between raw feeding and heavily processed food, making it a good option for dogs transitioning away from ultra-processed diets or for owners who prefer a cooked format.

Is this suitable for puppies?

Yes. This recipe is formulated to meet AAFCO nutritional standards for all life stages, including growth. Puppies aged 3 to 11 months should be fed 6 to 8% of their current body weight per day, split across meals. Always monitor weight and condition closely during growth and adjust portions as needed.

Can I mix this with my dog's current food?

Absolutely. Many owners use gently cooked food as a topper or mix it with their dog's existing diet. If transitioning fully, introduce The Grateful Pet gradually over 3 to 7 days, starting with around one-fifth to one-third of the new food mixed in. Some dogs may experience loose stools during the transition, which typically resolves within a day or two. A slower transition is recommended for dogs with sensitive stomachs.

How should I store and serve the food?

Keep packs frozen at -18°C until ready to use. Thaw overnight in the chiller and serve at room temperature or slightly chilled. Do not microwave or re-cook. Once opened, packs can be kept in the chiller for up to 48 hours. Do not refreeze thawed food.

Are the recipes grain-free?

Yes. All recipes in the standard gently cooked range are grain-free. The Grateful Pet does not use potatoes or green peas in any recipe.

Where are the meats sourced from?

All meats are sourced from human-grade suppliers. Poultry comes from Malaysia, game meats, lamb, and pork from Australia, seafood from Chile and Norway, and other meats from Brazil.
