Grandma Lucy’s is back with a bang!The full range of Grandma Lucy’s is now available onGood Dog People - enjoy an exclusive25% OFF launch promo on all of Grandma Lucy’s freeze dried food and treats from now till 30 June 2019!

We also took this opportunity to dive into some home cooked goodness and got into the nitty gritty of each recipe!


Grandma Lucy’s started off as a meal specially curated for Breann Shook’s (founder) 11 year old English Cocker Spaniel, Lucy, when she became a finicky eater after developing food allergies. Later, the brand expanded to share the wholesomeness that is Grandma Lucy’s with all the doggos out there.

THE PROCESS

All of Grandma Lucy’s freeze dried food and treats go through a crucialKILL STEP. It’s as murderous as it sounds - this step kills all the harmful pathogens present through a braising and blanching process, before the freeze drying takes place.

The meat is first braised at 77 °C for 10 minutes, and vegetables are blanched for 90 seconds. Once that’s done, they’re freeze-dried to keep the enzymes viable.

ARTISAN

Artisan was the very first freeze-dried food released by Grandma Lucy’s back in 2007 after a major pet food recall. It’s a grain-free diet that features potatoes as a base and includes many premium ingredients like flaxseed, carrots, apples, and berries! This range is easy on the stomach and serves as a good introduction to Grandma Lucy’s freeze dried recipes. Use it as a topper or feed as a complete meal.

Suitable for: Those transitioning between diets; superb for transition from kibbles.

Currently available in 2 flavours:Venison andPork!
