Our Food
“Complete & Balanced” pet food contains all the essential vitamins & nutrients needed for your pet in their life stage and for their specific needs. These foods are intended to be fed as the pet’s sole diet.
All of The Nosh Project’s meals are Complete & Balanced, meeting the required nutritional levels established by AAFCO for adult maintenance or growth. This is important as it provides the vital nourishment to maintain mood, appearance and overall general health. Excess vitamins and nutrition can also lead to vitamin toxicity, so getting the balance right is important.
Our DIY Kit can be used in conjunction with our The Nosh Project Recipes to help ensure that your pet’s meal is nutritionally complete & balanced.
Check out “Personalise your Nosh” to be recommended a custom Nosh plan for your dog. Alternatively, you can view any of our stockists here, to shop in store and select any number and combination suitable for you.
All The Nosh Project meals contain NO artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives and NO fillers.
We know that carbohydrates are essential for a balanced diet, even for dogs. That’s why all of our Daily Diets contain rice or pasta. We make sure to only use grains that are easily digestible for dogs and avoid any pulses or legumes that have been shown to be harder to digest and provide a less accessible nutrition.
We’re proud to source all of our fresh proteins, veggies and grains from local Australian farmers. Our Nourish 27™ Essential Meal Balancer is made in New Zealand.
The Nosh Project Daily Diets are prepared in a human grade kitchen using only human-grade ingredients.
We start by preparing our fresh Aussie ingredients. All the ingredients are then mixed with Nourish 27™, our multi-vitamin & mineral mix. Each meal is then portioned out and slow cooked in the pack. We do this because nutrients in food can deteriorate at high heat so this helps keep all the valuable nutrients inside. Once cooked, the meals are cooled and frozen to keep them fresh (no preservatives!). They are then sent in chilled trucks to stores or delivered same day to your door stop to serve to your lucky pet!
We’re different because we’re the only fresh pet food brand in Australia that is so confident in what we do, that we’re completely transparent and even give you our recipes.
We only use human grade ingredients and all of our food is made in a human grade kitchen facility. Our Nourish 27™ essential meal balancer completes our meals and compliments the fresh, wholefoods in supplying all of the essential vitamins and minerals that your dog needs for their good health. In every single serve of our Nosh Daily Diets you can have confidence you’re giving your dog everything they need to thrive. (and it’s delicious too!)

Unfortunately, the nutritional needs that you have are extremely different from the nutritional needs of your dog. This means that, while steak and potatoes are great for your dinner, it can be missing key vitamins & minerals that are essential for your dog’s health. A long-term diet deficient in just one key nutrient can pose serious health risks to pets.
