We blend our recipes with a nutritious mix of fruit and veg, such as carrots, chicory, apples and beet pulp, and add a natural pre-biotic ‘MOS' to encourage the growth of ‘friendly bacteria' in the gut.

While the 'mixing bowl' composition is useful for knowing what went into the food, it doesn't always reflect what your dog is actually eating. This is because the processes that turn the ingredients into the finished pet food can significantly alter the relative weights of the ingredients.Sustainable dog food is our mission, and by building our unique dog food blend around a core of environmentally friendly, nutritious insect protein, we’re pushing for real change in the dog food industry. We truly believe Percuro is the dog food of the future, and that replacing traditional meat sources such as beef with less damaging alternatives is a crucial step in limiting our impact on the climate, before it’s too late.

We know, it sounds a bit strange. When you think about having insects for dinner, your reaction probably isn’t a positive one. So why would you feed them to your dog? Our foods are made of more than just their protein source. Our recipe has been designed by nutritional experts to combine the natural protein power of our larvae with a range of vegetables, oats, minerals and vitamins to ensure it contains everything a happy, healthy dog needs, whilst still tasting absolutely delicious. To dogs, that is. Speaking to BBC News, BVA president Simon Doherty said: “There’s a really exciting future for the use of insect protein for companion animals. It’s a fantastic opportunity - looking at insects to provide alternative sources of some of the nutrient ingredients we use in pet food diets.”Suitable for everyday use, this small dog breed food contains 100% plant-based nutrients. Our unique hypoallergenic formula provides everything your pet needs, including clean, high quality insect protein and low inflammatory ingredients, providing health benefits throughout the whole body and the mind. This blend of ingredients makes it the ideal diet for dogs with food allergies, skin or stomach sensitivities.

Earlier this month, the canine delicacy was given a boost when celebrity vet Dr Scott Miller, a regular presenter on ITV’s This Morning and author of the book Puppy Parenting, became brand ambassador for Percuro. Dr Scott also stars in his own Channel 4 TV show Vet on the Hill, which follows life at his practice in London. Denise Saber, creator of Percuro, pictured with her dogs Bertie and Beebar.
