In general, unless your dog has health issues, you probably won't have to worry about these figures. Click here for more information
Mixing bowl composition
This is the ingredients list as printed on the packaging or manufacturer's website.
Think of the 'mixing bowl' composition like a recipe - all the ingredients you would need to put in a 'mixing bowl' in order to make the food.
Ingredients have to be listed in descending order of their weight so the higher it appears, the more there is.
Highlighted ingredients
Ingredients that we believe to be controversial or inferior are highlighted in yellow with particularly low grade, highly contentious or excessively vague ingredients in red.
As fed composition
While the 'mixing bowl' composition is useful for knowing what went into the food, it doesn't always reflect what your dog is actually eating. This is because the processes that turn the ingredients into the finished pet food can significantly alter the relative weights of the ingredients.
For this reason we've calculated the approximate 'as fed' percentages for the main ingredient categories in the finished product.
Please note that these figures are very approximate. They are estimates based on the information provided by the manufacturer in the ingredients list so the clearer the terminology and the more percentages they provide, the more accurate our estimates will be. Wherever information is lacking, we always assume the worst.
Ingredient categories
◉ Meat ingredients: includes all meat and fish ingredients except isolated fats/oils.
◉Added oils and fats: includes all isolated oil and fat ingredients.
◉ Carb-rich ingredients: includes all ingredients derived from grains, pseudo-grains, potatoes and other starchy root vegetables, sweet potato and legumes (except whole peas which are categorised under fruit and veg) except for isolated protein and extracted oils. Also includes fibre supplements.
◉ Fruit and veg: includes all whole vegetables and fruits.
◉ Other: all other ingredients. Mostly made up by nutritional supplements and additives.
For more information on any ingredient, please take a look at our Dog Food Ingredient Glossary
The dry matter level of a nutrient is the percentage there would be in the food if all of the water was removed.
With water taken out of the equation, these figures allow the nutrient levels of foods of different types (like wet and dry) to be compared on an even playing field.

90.00 out of 100 - Excellent
Our unique product ratings are calculated based on a number of characteristics including the quality and quantity of the stated ingredients, certain nutritional and technological additives and the processing methods used to create the food. They are designed to indicate how beneficial we think a food is likely to be for the majority of dogs when fed on a daily basis for an extended period. Click here for more information
Country of origin:United Kingdom
A technological additive is any substance added to a pet food "for a technological purpose and which favourably affects the characteristics of feed".
The most common categories of technological additives include preservatives and antioxidants, gelling agents and thickeners and probiotics.
While the primary effects of technoloical additives are certainly 'favourable' (increased shelf life in the case of preservatives & antioxidants, better food texture and consistency in the case of gelling agents and thickeners etc.) some have been linked to health problems in pets and should be treated with caution.
Unfortunately, many technological additives do not have to be declared by the manufacturer so just because they do not appear on the label does not necessarily mean they are not in the food. If in doubt, ask the manufacturer directly exactly what technological additives their foods contain.

I’ve been buying Luna & Me adult patties for my 1 yo miniature dachshund for around 3 months now. I used AADF to decide which food to buy when I wanted to switch to raw feeding, as my pup was having regular stomach aches - no more! On the whole, his tummy issues are resolved, his coat is softer and shinier, his teeth and ears are always clean - it’s been great for him. I love the 100g patties because I don’t need to handle the meat, just pop it in his bowl and chop it up a little, it’s so convenient. For 5 weeks worth of food (200g per day) and a couple of bags of treats, plus delivery, I’m around £60. The food looks appetising, is delivered on time and well frozen, and my dog seems to love it. Happy customer!Becky smith •8 months ago

Again trusting AADF rating this food was rated 99% a couple of months ago and now 89%??? AADF really need to properly explain their re evaluation. The cinic in me is starting to think they are not truly independant. Bella and duke went from 98% to 75????? Please explain?Haydn Bleach •one year ago
Just asking for abit of advise here. AADF is saying Luna & Me isn't a complete dog food on there stickers but the Luna & Me website and their descriptions say it is a complete food. I want to get this for my dog but if its not a complete food I'll have a look for something else. Is anyone able to help?Minky

I thought the same but it unless AADF believe a dog needs grains in their diet luna and me does seem to cover all elements (apart from eggs) . My dog has started to shake and i also found hard stone in one of her meals which could have been bad. I no longer would recommend :(luna2512

At LUNA & me, we take pride in formulating recipes that cater to all of the essential nutrients necessary to the dietary needs of dogs and cats. Our recipes are meticulously hand-crafted to include vital nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, fat, protein, as well as a comprehensive selection of vitamins and minerals.

Despite the shifts in ratings, we remain steadfast in our commitment to producing the finest quality pet food available in the UK, and our recipes remain unchanged.

Upon thorough review of our records, we were unable to locate any transactions or correspondence associated with your name or purchase history. Ensuring the safety and excellence of our products is of utmost importance to us, and we are keen to address any concerns promptly.

Monty has been having Luna & Me dinners since we bought him home at 8 weeks, he is now 6. This food and company is amazing in all ways. The food looks really fresh and has no smell, the patties are sooo easy to use. I don't have to "handle" the meat as the patties are ready portioned and with me being a vegetarian means I can feed Monty his correct diet with ease. There is a really good range of flavours, he loves the Beefy Beef especially. When we bought Monty home being our first dog and me being a vegetarian I had lots of questions, but Sammy was fantastic and really helped us in the early days getting Monty settled with his diet, nothing was too much trouble even though I must have been a pain in the neck :) Monty coat is so soft and shiny, his teeth are perfect, even the vet tells me what amazing condition he is in. He is a happy, healthy little dog who lives for mealtimes and I cannot ask for more than that. Monty and I thoroughly recommend Luna & MeJane G •one year ago
I have been using Luna & Me for a while now and it is in my opinion the best raw food available (and I have tried most of them). You can see the quality when you open the packet. The patties make life so easy to give the right amount each day and there is plenty of flavours to choose from. My little cockapoo loves his mealtimes, it is gone in seconds. We are regularly complemented on how soft his coat is and even the vet on his last booster visit had to concede how fantastic his condition was. I would not change now, Beau is very happy and so am I.S Anna •2 years ago
Please, please whoever is reading this.. Avoid this dodgy company at all costs! We have been with them for some time and everything was fine, my cats loved the meat and it was always fresh. Unfortunately, on our most recent order, they have clearly mixed old and fresh meat! There are big bits of old dark gray meat! And the smell is horrible, never in my life I have smelled something like this! Just few hours after defrosting. They are refusing to take any action and are ignoring my husband's emails. We have lost about £70 on meat that can not be eaten by our cats, we cant send it back and most likely we won't see our money back! I have never came across such an awful costumer service.. They don't want to take any responsibility. They could just apologise, send us return form and our money back or new fresh batch and it wouldn't be a problem. Now they have lost costumers, not just us but also people we have recommended them to. We will also take future action against this company.Gillie •2 years ago
We are the same Linsay. Very happy with Luna and Me!Lindsay Brown •2 years ago
I have been using L&M since we got our Lhasa apso puppy, it took about a week to transition him from kibble to raw. I was initially worried when I got him as he wasn’t food orientated (how to train a puppy who doesn’t care about food) but that all changed with Luna and Me as he is now obsessed. The patties are fantastic and he is now on the ‘growing up box’ and the customer support is fantastic as they also helped with explaining how best to transition him onto this. Not one delivery issue and I and more importantly my pup could not be happier.racheast •2 years ago
Hi, how do you know how much to feed at each meal? would it be one pattie? my dog is a small breed 7kg. And I assume with this you don't need to add any kind of hard biscuit? Thanks!K Ward

They have a portion calculator on their website to gauge how much to initially start feeding your dog. I have a 5.5kg pug (not spayed) who has 1x patty per meal which its a bit more than recommended but she's quite active so I guess you can tailor it to your pup using the calculator as a guideline. Still works out about £1 a day for her food which is good. Nearly all of their recipes are complete so no supplements/additional food is needed (I think there is an article by AllAboutDogFood on why they can't list this food as complete on their website and why regulations need to change). I don't think it is recommended to feed raw and kibble in the same meal due to the difference in digestion time for each food.Sammy •8 years ago
Dear Customer,I wanted to update you on our recent delivery delays and to say a heartfelt THANK-YOU! You supported Luna & Me during, what turned out to be, our most challenging chapter since we launched and we are so happy that you are part of the Luna & Me family.The delays stem from somewhat unforeseen circumstances surrounding a significant machinery upgrade being installed at our main production kitchens. We had high hopes for this machinery before we installed it, but we didn't expect the technical issues that actually materialised. These issues caused a delay in production, which in turn caused a back-log of orders. For those of you who waited to get your order, you have my sincere thanks for your patience.When I launched Luna & Me I hoped for growth, but I didn't expect the demand that actually materialised. Our focus has always been and remains, quality, and we will never drop our standards; quality after all, is about doing the right thing when no one is looking. I believe in creating a better product and I care about what your pets eat and where it comes from. I only make products I’m excited to feed to my own dogs, that they’re excited to eat, and that make a meaningful, positive difference in their lives.During the delays, it quickly became obvious that we needed to increase our manufacturing capacity in order to meet demand and maintain our standards. So at the same time, I made the decision to bring forward a move into larger premises, install the best machinery and employ three new members of staff, to ensure that we continue to bring you the very best food and treats.Please know our customers are top of mind in every decision we make and every service we provide at Luna & Me. We are working hard to restore our high customer service standards and when running smoothly, the new system will result in better service and much faster deliveries to you.If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 01892 322069 or hello@lunaandme.com.Sammy & LunaKirsty7dogs •8 years ago
I've received two orders form Luna and Me and another is scheduled for tomorrow.The delivery company is interlink and they are fab; you get confirmation of delivery date from Luna and Me with contact details of Interlink if you wish to change the date or ask them to leave in a safe place. Ive not had cause to complain at any point, in fact I can only commend them on deliveries. The food is beautifully packaged in poly boxes with ice packets which keeps the food frozen.The food is fabulous! Extremely palatable for even my pickiest eater, it looks great to me, (even though I'm a vegetarian, and my other half who is a meat eater thought they looked so appetising that he wanted the patties with onion rings and chips !!), what comes out the other end is testament to the food too, (two of my dogs suffer from bowel problems - or did as they don't now!), it comes in great packaging for the freezer, its easy to feed and you know you're feeding your dog/s the best which gives me great peace of mind, you know its got everything in it it should have; organs, ground bone, etcI purchase the Dinner Patties and the Little Dinner Patties and quite simply cannot fault Luna and Me, I'm very relieved to find such an easy complete raw food to offer my dogs that is delivered to my door :)
