Frequently Asked Questions

Where do we source LilFood’s ingredients?

LilFood is sourced locally and 100% of ingredients are Aussie grown.

Where do we prepare LilFood meals?

We prepare our food in a human-grade kitchen in Brunswick, VIC. Unlike typical pet food companies that outsource their manufacturing, we produces in-house, which means we control every part of our production process.

Is LilFood meats cooked or raw meat?

Raw meat and bones carry bacteria that can make both animals and humans ill and so are not recommended (source RSPCA.org.au). Kangaroos aren’t farmed or raised in controlled farming conditions and can often contain parasites. LilFood cook all meats used on a light heat to make eating safe for your dog(s).

Our meals keep up with the liveliest of pups through optimal all natural nutrients and vitamins for a developing dog.
