Wonderful experience from the start. Easy navigation through the website. My little dog Alfie adores the food. Never leaves any in the bowl. His tummy has improved immensely and no more stinky wind.... See more

The customer service both online and phone is 100%.

The team are patient and not hard sellers.

The provide discounts for returning customers.

My cocker spaniel now will not eat anything else. The options are good, but could offer more than just one low calorie.

Hi C.Polet,

Thank you for taking your time to share your feedback with us.

We are so sorry for the confusion caused by the labels on the two pork pouches! We want to make sure everything is as clear and straightforward as possible for you.

We have requested more information through Truspilot, and one of our Customer Love team members will reach out to offer further support.

Take care,

Our pup loves their food and treats

Our pup loves their food and treats. Their website is really easy to use and adjust orders to include new recipes or treats. And customer service is great - they are very quick to reply with lovely warmth and seem happy to help.

Clean bowls all round

Clean bowls all round. Quality food for your fur babies, reflects in overall health, weight management and dare I say, in poops as well. I have a long haired GSD and everyone comments on the condition of her coat, all down to the quality food from Butternut Box. Any queries are dealt with from a top customer service team. I think the cost for the quality of the food is also very reasonable. Give it a go, your fur babies will thank you.

Overall very happy with the service

So far we have had a really good experience. It is very user friendly so we can add or remove whatever we like from the order. The customer service team (Marcelina I think was the staff member who contacted me) were also quick and supportive when I contacted them about a query. Our dog loves the food a lot more than his previous meals too. Overall very happy!

Holiday dog food

Communication absolutely first rate and brilliant flexible as we do not use butter up all the time we use it when we’re away from Home on holiday et cetera and they are very happy for us to purchase food as when we need it. The food is extremely good. our dogs love it the rest of the time I produced my own food the dogs also love that as well.

Don’t be tempted by TRIAL box They suck you in to subscroption…

Don’t be sucked in by the discounted “TRIAL BOX”.
This company are professional at extracting your money.
I ordered a trial box, and not even 2 weeks later had £52 taken from my account and another box on its way.
I had not even got half way through the first one (I was introducing it gradually to my dog, as recommended by them)
I was not informed of the new delivery, as they apparently didn’t have my correct email.
But, oddly enough DID receive a SMS on the day of delivery, which of course, was too late. Also, they refused to take it back as it’s perishable. The packaging had ice blocks and loads of wadding, and is ridiculous to try to recycle.
They had me over a barrel, apparently just signing up for a TRIAL hooks you in for legal extortion of substantial amounts from your bank.
Very sophisticated and underhanded Sales technique. Their customers are funding the very high profile media TV advertising they use.
BEWARE

Hi Carole,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We're really sorry to hear about your experience. We completely understand how frustrating it must have been to receive another box before your dog had even finished the trial, especially while introducing the food gradually as recommended.

We're also sorry to hear that you didn't receive any notification about your upcoming delivery. We can appreciate how this would have added to your frustration and why you felt caught by surprise.

We've been able to locate your account, and a member of our Customer Love team will be in touch with you directly today to review what happened and do everything we can to support you.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Take care,

Claire - Customer Love Team

Was a customer for a year and started advertising for them for free boxes every month . Worked hard and showed them that I have what it takes to become an ambassador, I was one of the first to become one who wasn’t a pet professional 1 year later I’m talking and working with around 50-80 new ppl a month ! I love the company best company I’ve ever had a pleasure of being with not only am I a customer I’m a professional and a customer and I’ve dealt with all types of ceos and high bosses from high end furniture to the CEO at Dior and boots and I can say hand on heart the ceos arnt all about the sales and money etc . It’s all about the dogs and advice and care and that’s what I love . The passion I have for this brand is exceptional and I would choose this company over high end cosmetics any day ! I’d rather sit in an office covered in fur being licked to death by dogs of the office then stand in 4 inche heels looking pretty being yelled at by fussy John Lewis customers and pressure from my area manger for not pushing a 400 pound sale on them !

Lovely Tram

My dogs love their food and I would highly recommend it. The choice is excellent and the app is very straightforward to use to adjust your dogs food flavours, your dogs information, delivery dates etc. There is a good range of extras and treats also. Delivery is always good and I am kept well informed via email of arrival.
I had to have one of my guys put to sleep and the customer care team sent me out some flowers and a card that was completely unexpected and very much appreciated.
Anytime I’ve needed to ask anything I’ve always had a prompt reply and excellent customer service.
