Perfect for sensitive stomach and fussy pups

My dogs are on the BARF (evenings) mixed with cold pressed food (mornings) One of my girls is a fussy eater and has a very sensitive tummy, to the point where two or three pieces of unknown /new treats were causing problems. Since she's on DARF Insect Cold Pressed Dog Food no vomiting or diarrhoea at all. We've tried different brands and "flavours" of cold pressed food before, but only insect's DARF from Fetch made significant difference. Both of the girls loves it, so I would recommend it to all but especially to the fussy doggos or those with sensitive stomach.

Best kibble I’ve found

We’ve tried several brands. This ticks several boxes: nutritious (highly rated on independent website), good value for money, makes good looking poos (dark, small and well shaped).
My dog loves it and will have bits of kibble as treats too.

Great food!

I have had my two dogs on many different diets due to allergies/ their breed. Someone recommended insect food to me so I spent some time looking into it and came across DARF. They are doing really well on this food, maintaining weight, coats look great etc. Really happy and FETCH always deliver really quickly!

Dart insect cold pressed dog seems great. Have to wait and see how it react with Remi as he has a genetic skin problem . He can not have any animal protein. So thats why we are trying the insect food. Fingers crossed 🤞.

DARF Insect Cold Pressed Dog Food

DARF Cold Pressed Insect Based Dog Food is an eco friendly alternative to typical meat-based dog food. This is because farming insects has far less of an impact on the environment. The insects used in this food are black soldier beetles larve.

DARF’s Cold Pressed Insect Dog Food is a high-quality, minimally processed, dry food for dogs. 3.2kgs of fresh, raw meat is processed for each kilogram of this food, making it highly nutrient-dense and palatable, even to fussy eaters.

It retains more nutrients than most standard dry kibble, so it will help promote your dog’s wellness and give them all the essential nutrients and minerals they need.

What is cold-pressed dog food?

Cold-pressed dog food differs from traditional dry dog food because of how the ingredients are processed. The ingredients in conventional dog food are extruded at high temperatures (around 120 degrees). Consequently, many nutrients are damaged or destroyed and don’t reach your dog’s bowl.

In contrast, when food is Cold Pressed, the raw ingredients are processed gently and at much lower temperatures (around 80 degrees). As a result, the food retains more essential nutrients to support your dog’s health.

Another plus for cold-pressed food is that it doesn’t expand in the dog’s stomach like dry extruded food does – it simply dissolves when it enters the stomach. Because of this, cold-pressed food is much less likely to cause bloat.

Key Benefits

  • The production of insects requires less water, less food, less space compared to livestock and therefore it has a much smaller carbon footprint.
  • Rich in high-quality protein
  • Insects (black soldier fly larve) are healthier and more nutritious than mainstream sources of meat like beef and chicken.
  • A novel source of protein, ideal for dogs with intolerances and allergies.
  • It is minimally processed, making it highly nutritious and palatable.
