Lucy & Bo Nutrition Love leads Science follows

What we’re building, in plain terms.

A complete daily food for adult dogs, designed around digestive tolerability and made to behave the same way every bag. Below is our intent, described honestly - design goals, not proven outcomes.

01 · The idea

The idea in one paragraph.

A large share of chronic digestive trouble in dogs is diet-responsive - it improves when the food changes, without medication. Yet everyday food isn’t engineered for that, and veterinary food is built to manage disease, not to be a great daily staple.

Our hypothesis is that if you treat digestive tolerability as a primary formulation constraint - the right fibre and prebiotic composition, stable fat sources, controlled ingredients and tight batch-to-batch consistency - you can make a complete daily food that a sensitive dog does well on, day after day.

The work runs in a deliberate order. Each stage has to hold before the next one earns our attention.

02 · The order of operations

Complete

Formulated as a complete daily diet for adult dogs, meeting recognised nutritional adequacy standards - not a supplement or a topper.

Gut-first

Fibre, prebiotic and fat choices selected around digestive tolerability rather than around cost or novelty ingredients.

Consistent

Ingredient sourcing and processing controlled so batches stay alike - the variable that matters most to a sensitive dog.

Tested

Tested, retested, and put through its paces on every variable that moves digestion - because a daily food only earns the name once it behaves the same way, day after day.

Throughout, manufacturing runs through qualified, audited partners under documented quality and food-safety controls - wherever those partners give us the best result.

03 · What this is not

The boundaries we hold.

Not a cure

Not a treatment, medicine or replacement for veterinary care. A dog that is unwell needs a vet.

Not proven

We describe design intent, not results. We won’t claim a health outcome until we’ve earned the right to.

Not for sale

Nothing here is a product you can buy. There’s no packaging, no pricing, no store - yet.

04 · Where we are

Honestly, early.

We’re in formulation and validation. The near-term work is developing candidate formulations, producing small pilot batches, and testing them hard against the digestive-tolerability intent - before any thought of scaling.

If you’re a veterinarian, an animal-welfare organisation, a potential formulation or manufacturing partner, or a journalist, we’d value the conversation early. Get in touch →
