Buffalo Meatballs with Slow-Cooked Red Pepper & Pork Ragù FAQUpdated a few seconds ago


🐶 1. How much should I serve to my dog?

This meal contains 748 calories in total. It’s best to check your dog’s usual daily calorie intake and serve a portion that fits within their needs.
If you have Year meal plan subscription you can find your dog’s typical serving size on the label of your usual Years meals or by logging into your online account.


🍽️ 2. Does my dog have to eat this meal all at once?

Not at all. You can split this dish into as many servings as you’d like.
Once opened, store any leftovers in the fridge and serve within 3 days.


🧺 3. Can this meal be stored in the cupboard?

Yes! Thanks to our unique cooking process, this meal is shelf‑stable and can be stored at room temperature until the best‑before date (found on the tray).
After opening, refrigerate and serve within 3 days.


🔥 4. How do I serve this meal to my dog?

This dish is ready to serve straight from the pack at room temperature — no heating needed.

If you’d like to warm it slightly, you can:

  • Microwave for 1 minute on a microwave‑safe plate
  • Or heat in the oven for 10 minutes at 180°C on an oven‑safe tray

⚠️ Make sure the food isn’t hot when serving, and never reheat once it’s been served.


💛 5. My dog has a sensitive stomach. What do you recommend?

If your dog is sensitive to new foods, start slow. Try:

  • Mixing a small amount into their usual Years meal
  • Offering a small portion as a starter
  • Feeding 25% of this dish with 75% of their usual food

This meal is gluten‑free, grain‑free, legume‑free, and made without preservatives or fillers — gentle on most tummies.
If your dog has specific health conditions, check with your vet before making changes to their diet.


🌾 6. Is this meal gluten‑free?

Yes! Unlike traditional meatballs and pasta, this meal is completely gluten‑free.
It’s made with yuca flour instead of regular pasta and is also grain‑free.


🥣 7. Is the Chef’s Collection meal grain‑free?

Absolutely. All of our meals and treats — including the Chef’s Collection — are gluten‑free, grain‑free, and made with natural ingredients suitable for sensitive tummies.
If your dog has a particularly sensitive stomach or a health concern, please speak with your vet before feeding this meal.


📦 8. The Chef’s Collection meal has sold out and I haven’t received mine — what’s happening?

When ordering, you could choose:

  • A one‑off delivery
  • Or to add it to your subscription

If you added it to your subscription, it will arrive with your next scheduled order.


🐣 9. After the Buffalo Meatballs and Pork Ragù, what’s next?

The team are already working on your dog’s next delight — and it may just arrive in time for Easter!
