We've worked hard to source for your cat food and dog food and treats that are 100% natural, responsibly made, and provide great nutritional benefits.

We also understand that many pet owners have difficulty finding diets appropriate to their dogs' complicated nutritional demands, which is why many of our foods are hypoallergenic, limited ingredients, single-source protein, or grain-free.

Why is natural food good for my dog or cat?

The physical well-being of our dogs and cats is proportional to the quality of their meals. Feeding our pets a varied diet rich in natural whole foods can improve their general health by supporting heart health, increasing energy, making coats shine, smelling better, enhancing eyesight, and even influencing a dog's faeces. Eliminating artificial colours, flavours, and synthetic preservatives from your pet's diet can also promote better digestion.

What is the best pet food NZ?

There are many great options for feeding your dog a wholesome and satisfying diet. We believe that mixed feeding is a great option for most dogs. Offering your dog a high-quality complete diet that is cold pressed, air-dried or kibble together with wet food and fresh or homemade ingredients provides variety and interest to your dog's daily meals.

At Banquet Pet, our complete range of diets for cats and dogs use only premium quality, human-grade ingredients. The key ingredient in Tribal and Naturea cat and dog food recipes is always fresh meat or fish. These high-quality proteins are complemented with other natural ingredients such as green-lipped mussels, salmon oil, eggs, fruits, vegetables, herbs and seaweed.

What foods to avoid for dogs with allergies?

At Banquet Pet, we offer a range of dietary options for dogs that may suffer from food allergies or food intolerances. Food allergies or intolerances will need to be investigated by your vet, and symptoms may include excessive scratching or licking paws, ear infections, dull coat, gastrointestinal problems or loss of appetite. Once the specific allergy triggers have been determined, your vet might advise moving your dog to a hypoallergenic diet. Hypoallergenic dog food is about reducing the risk of allergies and intolerances by using novel proteins that aren’t commonly recognised by dogs' antibodies as being allergens.

Some of the most commonly known allergens for dogs are beef, chicken and grains.

The term hypoallergenic means ‘less likely to cause allergic reaction’. Meats and fish that are often regarded as ‘novel proteins’ are duck, turkey, white fish, salmon, venison, and wild boar.

What dog food brands to avoid?

Unlike herbivores and ruminants, carnivores (cats and dogs) have a short, rather acidic digestive system specially designed to digest meat. The cheaper and lower quality pet food brands sold in stores often include corn, wheat or soy in their diets to reduce production costs. In many cases, these lower-quality brands will also primarily utilise cheap meat meals or dried meat concentrates as the key (or only) source of animal protein within their formulations. Some brands will also purport to offer the nutritional benefit of being grain-free. While they may have removed grains from their recipes, they will often replace them with low-grade alternative ‘fillers’ such as peas and legumes.
