Tuggs better than raw? Our research with Glasgow University students

July 24, 2023

"In order to assert the nutritional value of Tuggs’ insect-based dog food, Tuggs worked with Mordor Gundogs, the renowned gundog breeder in Perthshire, to trial our insect-based dog food against premium raw dog food. We enrolled veterinary students from the University of Glasgow to run the trials. Overall, we wanted to test whether puppies would put on the same weight as other puppies fed premium raw dog food (to discern the digestibility of our insect-based food), and examine their energy levels, stools and overall body condition. We ran similar tests for other working dogs."

Can Dogs Be Vegan?

July 24, 2023

"The proposition to reduce reliance on livestock production invites the question as to the feasibility of utilising plant proteins as an alternative to, or alongside, insects. Recent research seems to suggest that plant-based diets are beneficial for our dogs and for the environment. Below, we look at the issues of plant-based diets for dogs as well as addressing the research into plant-based diets so far."

Is Tuggs Worth the Price?

July 24, 2023

"Tuggs is a freshly-prepared dog food made using human-grade meat & fish, fresh veg and insects. Tuggs is delivered to you frozen in order that the food retains the majority of its nutritional value during transport. Our food has at least 65% meat & insect in each recipe. Consequently, our food is likely to cost more than supermarket dog foods or some raw dog foods."

The Beginning of Tuggs

Transitioning to Tuggs Meals

July 24, 2023

"Transitioning your pup onto Tuggs should be done gradually, and our nutritionist has created the above guideline for you to follow. We suggest that a small volume of Tuggs is mixed in with your dog’s current food, incrementally increasing the volume each day for 7 days. After a week, your pup should be fine to gobble down a whole portion of Tuggs!"
