Why Marleybones
Dog food has always made you choose.
Quality or convenience.
And whichever you picked came with a trade-off.
Kibble or tins
You picked convenience.
Keeps in the cupboard, ready in seconds. The trade-off is cheap fillers and heavy processing.
Frozen or raw
You picked quality.
Real ingredients, minimally processed. The trade-off is the freezer space and defrosting ahead.
Pantry Fresh®
Now you don’t have to pick.
Real meat and veg, gently cooked and kept in the cupboard. Zero preservatives. Open, serve, devour.
Personalised starter box · plans from £1.65 a day for a 5kg dog
“MARLEY WAS FUSSY, WITH A SENSITIVE STOMACH. KIBBLE DIDN'T SUIT HIM AND FROZEN DIDN'T SUIT ME. SO WE MADE THE FOOD WE COULDN'T FIND.”

What I love most about Marleybones is how effortless it makes feeding my dogs truly healthy, high-quality meals. A total game-changer.
When we adopted Betsy she was underweight with a thin coat. Since starting Marleybones, she's reached a healthy weight and her coat is now full and glossy.
Eddie is a very picky eater and would get bored of his food within months. He’s been on Marleybones since 2022 and still wolfs it down.
Sorry if it’s TMI but his poos are so much better for us to pick up!
Rhea absolutely loves Marleybones! Since switching from kibble, her scratching has stopped and her skin and coat look amazing.
The dinner they'd order themselves.

FAQ
-
What makes Marleybones different from other dog food brands?
Marleybones is Pantry Fresh®. That means gently cooked meals made with real, high quality ingredients, sealed raw and gently steam-cooked inside the carton, so they live in your cupboard and not your freezer. Lots of fresh dog food needs freezer space and planning ahead, and kibble is made with high heat and pressure. We give you the quality of fresh food with the convenience of a cupboard staple. Every recipe is complete, and our quiz builds a plan around your dog so the portions suit them.
-
What does Pantry Fresh® mean?
Pantry Fresh® means gently cooked, real food meals that stay fresh without a freezer. We seal whole ingredients raw inside the carton and gently steam-cook them in the pack at an average of 89°C, so the food is safe and shelf stable with no preservatives. Conveniently stored in the cupboard, no freezer needed. Once opened, pop them in the fridge and use within 2 to 3 days. Want the full story? Read What is Pantry Fresh® dog food.

How much does Marleybones cost?
Every plan is personalised to your dog’s size, age and activity, so your price depends on how much they need. Plans start from £1.65 a day for a 5kg dog, and you begin with a personalised starter box. Subscribers save up to 25%, delivery is free, and half plans let you mix Marleybones with their usual food. Build your dog’s plan to see your exact price.
-
Are Marleybones meals nutritionally complete?
Yes. All four of our meals are complete foods formulated to FEDIAF guidelines, which means you can feed them as your dog’s only food with nothing extra added. They’re complete for every life stage, from puppies to seniors, with only the portion size changing as your dog grows. Curious about what goes in the carton? See What’s in Marleybones dog food.
-
Is Marleybones like home cooked dog food?
Marleybones meals are gently cooked from real ingredients, much like cooking at home. The difference is the balance. Getting a home cooked recipe nutritionally right is really hard, and common gaps include calcium, zinc and vitamins D and E, which can take months to show up. Ours are complete and balanced, so you get the care of home cooking without the guesswork. Weighing it up? Read the pros and cons of home cooked dog food.
