Love Natural Instinct as a brand packaged lovely but come in polystyrene lined boxes which are difficult to dispose of … too expensive to feed all the time with 4 dogs. We order for special occasion... See more

Easy to order, improvement in ordering system where you can choose a few dates in advance for the order to be processed, although possibly it should say to be delivered by. That nearly caught me out.... See more

Great raw food

Great raw food, my dog loves it. Great communication from the delivery people with a sensible time slot allowance rather than a morning / afternoon / all day delivery span. It also arrives still frozen solid so you know it’s not been compromised during delivery.

Excellent quality food

Natural Instinct was recommended by my dog's breeder and I've been a loyal customer ever since. He's always thoroughly enjoyed his meals, particularly the Beef Tripe, which remains a firm favourite. As he's getting older, I've gradually introduced the Senior range, which he enjoys just as much.

I supplement his meals with additional green vegetables, and he's remained remarkably fit and healthy as he's aged. I genuinely believe that a good diet plays an important part in his overall health and wellbeing, and Natural Instinct has certainly served him well over the years.

Excellent quality food from a company I'm very happy to recommend.

We're delighted to hear that your dog has been enjoying Natural Instinct since being recommended to you by his breeder. It's wonderful to hear that Beef Tripe remains a firm favourite and that he's also enjoying our Senior range as he's getting older.

It's fantastic to hear that he's remained fit and healthy over the years. We truly appreciate your kind words about the quality of our food and are grateful for your recommendation.

Thank you for choosing Natural Instinct. Here's to many more happy and healthy mealtimes!

Kind regards,

Delivery Issues

The actual purchase was fine but the delivery was difficult. Thought I had arranged it for a day I would be home and then it was delayed by a day seemingly by the delivery company. Was concerned as the food is frozen and I had purchased a large quantity. There was some sign of leakage on the packaging when it arrived. Had to rearrange my plans to be home for delivery.

Just transitioned our daxie from fresh prepared/frozen cooked food onto Natural Instinct and she loves it. Gobbles it down faster than any food she’s eaten before (Butternut Box, Different Dog, Forthglade) and it’s way better value.

More senior flavours

I always use NI for our food. The girls love it. Bit, whenever I get an opportunity I always suggest that they look at improving the range of flavours for seniors. Whilst she eats it every day she must get bored of the same flavour. I have started to jazz it up with toppers.

Hi Amanda,

Thank you so much for your continued support and for taking the time to share your feedback!

We're delighted to hear that the girls are enjoying their Natural Instinct meals. We really appreciate your suggestion regarding expanding the variety of flavours available in our senior range. We understand how important variety can be, particularly when feeding the same meals regularly.

I'll make sure your feedback is passed on to the relevant team for consideration. It's always valuable to hear suggestions directly from our customers.

Thank you again for choosing Natural Instinct!

Kind regards,

Hi Rachel,

I'm really sorry to hear that your delivery didn't arrive on the expected day and that you were left waiting for an update that never came.

I completely understand your frustration, particularly as you had taken the time to contact us and were expecting a call back. This is certainly not the level of communication or service we aim to provide.

I'm also very sorry that your order arrived defrosted the following afternoon. I appreciate how disappointing this must have been.

Thank you for highlighting both issues. I'm pleased to hear that our colleague was helpful when you called the following day, and I will ensure your feedback regarding the initial communication is passed on to the relevant team.

Once again, please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Kind regards,
Jamie

The product is fantastic

The product is fantastic. The best thing we ever did was switch our Cockapoo from kibble to raw.

The customer service is outstanding too.
