We were Darling's,
now we're Honey's
Sadly, we have had to change the name of our dog food for legal reasons. For more information visit Darling’s Real Food.

We’ll adjust your dog’s food as necessary... a resting dog needs less, for instance (as Darling recently found out).
Bespoke dog food? Using organic or farm assured ingredients? For as little as 99p a day? Delivered direct to your front door? The Honey’s Real Dog Food concept is unashamedly different.
To begin with, Honey’s is made entirely to order. This means that we can adjust it as necessary to suit your dog’s exact needs. It also means that it is always completely fresh. You may care to think of us as your personal canine chef.
A chef, incidentally, that will make your dog (or dogs) very happy because at the heart of the Honey’s concept is fresh, raw food prepared using the finest meat and vegetables. Indeed, if you visit the video area of this website you can see Andy our Master Butcher eating the food himself.
By the way, we offer a variety of ‘to drool for’ recipes that vary according to the season but would normally include free-range chicken, pork, beef and lamb as well as wild rabbit and other game. We also offer bones, chicken wings, biscuits and treats.
Your first order
The first time you order from us we ask you to supply us with lots of information about your dog as well as – if you have one – a photograph. We particularly want to know about his or her health, lifestyle, personality, likes and dislikes. Based on what you tell us we prepare the first 28 days’ supply on the agreed date in our kitchens.
We deliver overnight
The next stage is packing and shipping. The food and other items you have ordered are placed into separate containers and labelled. This is then packed (together with feeding notes) into insulated, recyclable boxes and despatched to you using an overnight delivery service. Incidentally, our packaging keeps the food cold for up to 48 hours.
Keeping Honey’s fresh
When the shipment arrives we ask you to take it out of the box and put it into your freezer. We suggest that before going to bed every night you simply remove the following day’s food from the freezer so that it has a chance to defrost.
Please keep us up to date
We would like to know how your dog is getting on with our food. We would also like to be kept up to date with any changes in your dog’s health or lifestyle so that we can adjust his or her diet if necessary.
A regular order
Assuming you and your dog are happy with Honey’s we will set up a regular order for you. This will be identical to your first month’s order unless you advise us of some factor that requires it to be changed. You can change your order up to seven days before it is due to be prepared and despatched. (We need this notice because our meat is slaughtered and our vegetables are picked entirely to order.) We always advise regular customers well before their next order is due to be despatched. Your second order will be planned to arrive several days before you need it so that there is never any risk of you running out of food!
Payment information
We accept all major credit cards. If you become a regular customer we bill your credit card a week before the food is despatched. We always notify you before billing your card.
Our trial offer
The best way to discover whether Honey’s Real Dog Food is everything we promise it to be is to test it. As a new customer we’ll give you the first week of food for free - including treats - if you order our minimum quantity.
Our 100% money back guarantee
We are proud to say that almost all our customers come to us by word of mouth. In order to ensure that we maintain our reputation for quality, service and integrity we guarantee that your food will arrive in first class condition on the promised date. If you are dissatisfied with the quality of our food simply follow the instructions in the delivery box and we will refund the cost in full and without argument.
