About Scratch
Scratch is a fast-growing brand that makes healthy dog food for loving but time-poor dog owners.
Instead of going through stores where there's tons of mark-ups and long waits in storage, we sell direct on subscription.
This lets us know the dog & parent better, put more money into the food, and set an example for how much healthier & trustworthy pet food can be.
This approach has helped us win both Frankie Mag's Small Business of the Year and the Online Retail Industries Best Small Independent Business.
More importantly, it has meant we've also won over 50,000+ pet parents who trust us with their dog's nutrition.
Our brand is crafted for a world where dogs have their own Insta accounts and no longer sleep in the yard.
We want to capture that passion and create products for those who truly care.
After establishing the brand by making the healthiest and most transparently-labeled kibble possible, we've since launched Raw.
Raw from Scratch is the easiest way to feed your dog a complete & balanced raw meat diet and Australia's healthiest dog food.
