Produced by the DEFRA approved Devon manufacturer using ethically and locally sourced UK ingredients, this recipe features a masterfully balanced blend of British rose veal and fresh duck neck. Formulated in strict accordance with the gold standard ancestral prey model, this mince contains a balanced ratio of 80% muscle meat, 10% bone, and 10% secreting offal. Rather than being processed into a smooth, uniform puree, this food is passed through a large 13mm plate, resulting in a satisfyingly coarse, chunky, and moist texture that provides an excellent mouthfeel, encourages natural chewing behaviors, and keeps feeding clean and straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis specialized formulation showcases the remarkable structural and nutritional efficiency of combining a highly digestible young mammalian livestock source with rich poultry elements. Sourced from trusted local abattoirs, the premium rose veal chunks are hand-butchered on the manufacturer's own premises, utilizing prime muscle tissue rather than generic, low-quality offcuts or scrap trimmings. This veal is aged up to 12 months and is guaranteed to be entirely free from crate keeping or intensive confinement. The prime veal chunks make up 75% of the total meat portion, delivering an exceptionally lean, high-protein foundation that is incredibly light on sensitive stomachs. The remaining 5% muscle meat and 10% bone are derived from whole duck necks, providing a safe, crunchy structural bone matrix that supplies a bioavailable surge of natural calcium and phosphorus to maintain sturdy skeletal frameworks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a precise 80-10-10 formulation, this mince represents a complete raw food solution that eliminates the guesswork from ancestral feeding. To ensure the absolute highest standards of nutritional density, the 10% offal component features rich ox (beef) organs, precisely split into 5% ox liver and 5% ox kidney or spleen. This infuses the meal with a vital concentration of preformed vitamin A, copper, bioavailable iron, and essential B-group vitamins. This lean, flavor-packed mixture contains absolutely zero fillers, grains, plant matter, or hidden processing chemicals, offering an exceptionally bioavailable, clean-burning meal that satisfies your dog's evolutionary drive for fresh, unadulterated meat cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnimal Type: Domestic dogs and working dogs.

Adjust the exact amount based on your dog's workload, age, metabolic rate, and physical condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDietary Balancing: This product is formulated to the complete 80-10-10 ancestral ratio, meaning it naturally contains the perfect daily balance of muscle meat, bone, and offal. While it can be fed as a standalone meal, the manufacturer recommends rotating this recipe with other protein varieties across the month to ensure a diverse, balanced nutrient intake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServing Strategy: Serve straight from thawed. Simply open the 1kg pack and portion the required amount directly into your dog's bowl. If smaller serving amounts are needed, allow the block to soften slightly at room temperature just enough to safely segment with a sharp knife, then return the unused portion immediately to the freezer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandling and Thawing: Store at -18 degrees Celsius and keep frozen until ready to use. Defrost the pack inside a sealed container in the refrigerator overnight (approximately 10 to 12 hours) before serving. Never boil, cook, or microwave this product, as heat completely destroys the live digestive enzymes and causes the ground duck bone elements to harden, compromising digestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStorage Advice: Once fully defrosted, store the mince in a sealed container in the refrigerator and use within 48 hours to ensure maximum freshness. Do not refreeze the product once it has thawed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSafe Handling: This is a raw meat product and should be handled with standard hygiene practices. Wash hands, bowls, utensils, and all preparation surfaces thoroughly with warm, soapy water after serving. Always make fresh, clean drinking water available daily.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trusty Pets","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54555807908174,"sku":"TDBVDN","price":9.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/7105\/4670\/files\/VealMincewithDuck80-10-10.png?v=1787832662","url":"https:\/\/trustypetsupplies.co.uk\/products\/the-dogs-butcher-raw-dog-food-veal-mince-with-duck-neck-80-10-10-1kg","provider":"Trusty Pet Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
