The best dog supplements just got better cheaper
After a year’s long, hard work and research Pooch & Mutt are now proud to announce the launch of out NEW concentrated products.
The new concentrates use the same active ingredients as the existing, successful products. By changing from pellets to powder/ granules we have been able to take out some of the inactive ingredients, making the products more concentrated and smaller.
Being smaller gives many advantages:
- They costs less to make, store and transport – These savings are passed on the the customer
- They take up less shelf space – so more stores will stock them
- They cost less to post out and fit through a standard letter box – so customers save money
- They involve less transportation – which reduces environmental impact
The concentrates will help dogs in the same way as the existing products, with the same benefits from the same active ingredients. We will keep selling the original versions of the products as that is what a lot of dog owners and dogs are used to.
We hope that the lower cost and ease of use will mean that even more dogs get to benefit from the Pooch & Mutt products.
There are environmental benefits of moving away from the biodegradable packaging and towards recyclable plastic. The reasons for this is that it has emerged that the PLA plastic in the biodegrabdable packaging (although biodegradable) did involve quite a lot of emissions to produce, and the use of land which could be used for food production. The new recyclable packaging also needs less outer packaging (just an envelope) to go through the post and fits through a letter box, so we do not have to use couriers, which saves hugely on transport emissions.
The picture below show what the product looks like and gives a good idea of the size of the bags (18cm x 12cm x 4.5cm).

The new product looks very yellow, is there colouring in it?

Hi Carol, the new Bionic Biotic concentrate is yellower that the pelleted version because it does not have the wheat, mollasses etc that were needed to make the pellets. It does not contain any colourings.

the picture shows a very small bag, are we going to pay less for less, therefore not working out cheaper?

Hi Peggy,
The bags are a lot smaller because we have concentrated the products, so that there are more active ingredients in a lot smaller amount.
If you take a 25kg dog as an example: He would have 2 tablespoons of pellets per day. With the the concentrates he would have 2 heaped T-spoons per day. A lot less. You can see a feeding table for both products at http://www.poochandmutt.com/bionicbiotic/
A pack of the concentrates last an average dog 1 month, so works out to be significantly cheaper than the pellets.

Hi Peggy,
There is a list of Pooch & Mutt stockists at http://www.poochandmutt.com/stockists/ although not all have ordered the new products yet. We are also working on getting them into Pets at Home on a nationwide basis.
You can also order online at http://www.poochandmutt.com/online-shop/ with free delivery (we have also added the option of paid courier delivery during the postage strikes).

when i put my dog cito on to the pellets you advised introducing slowly, having just purchased the new product do i have to do the same,mixing with the pellets.
[Reply]
Hi Peggy,
Good question. People buying the product for the 1st time should introduce gradually, as directed on the pack.
If you are switching from the pellets to the new products you can just switch straight from the daily amount of pellets to the daily amount of concentrate, as it is the same active ingredients.

I know that they do not have any of the concentrates, but they should have some of the peleted formulation.

I have switched from PetSpec granules to Bionic Biotic having been so delighted with Bionic Bones. The concentrate is going down a storm and a once slightly fussy eater is now wolfing down his food and licking the bowl clean. I have given your details to my local Vet as I am amazed in the difference in Lester since he has been on your products. Thank you for your excellent products.
