Collection: Nu Cold-Pressed

Choosing cold pressed food is a fantastic way to ensure your dog receives the highest quality nutrition in a convenient dry format. Here are the three main reasons why it stands out from traditional kibble:

• Essential for optimal health:

  Unlike standard dry foods that are cooked at high temperatures, our cold pressed method retains more of the natural vitamins and minerals your dog needs. This gentle process ensures nutrients aren't "cooked away," making it easier on sensitive stomachs and a hit with even the pickiest eaters.

• Tailored to your dog’s unique needs:

  Our range is expertly designed to support every life stage and activity level—from growing puppies to active working dogs. We offer specialized formulas, including single-source proteins, meat-free, and chicken-free options, to provide tailored support for dogs with specific allergies or dietary intolerances.

• Natural, high-quality ingredients:

  We believe in keeping things simple and effective. Our recipes are blended with a selection of the best vegetables, herbs, and minerals to create a balanced meal that promotes overall well-being without being over-processed.

By opting for cold pressed, you’re providing a nutrient-dense, easily digestible meal that helps your four-legged friend thrive from the inside out.

The main difference lies in how the food is made. Unlike traditional kibble, which is often baked, cooked, or steamed at high temperatures, our premium cold pressed food avoids these intense heat processes. High heat can often cause ingredients to lose important natural nutrients during the manufacturing stages.

By using the cold press method, we ensure that the raw integrity of our ingredients is maintained. This results in a fresh, nutrient-dense meal in every single bite. Because it isn't "puffed up" with air like extruded kibble, it’s also more concentrated, meaning your dog gets more goodness in a smaller portion.

Not sure if this is the best choice for your dog? Our gentle process makes it particularly popular for dogs with sensitive tummies or those who need a little extra nutritional boost to thrive.

While both are convenient dry formats, cold pressed dog food offers a significant nutritional advantage over traditional baked or extruded kibble. Because it undergoes minimal processing, using a gentle pressing technique at much lower temperatures, it is able to retain more of the natural vitamins, minerals, and healthy oils found in its raw ingredients.

In contrast, the high-heat manufacturing used for most kibbles can often break down these delicate nutrients. By choosing cold pressed, you are providing a more nutrient-dense and less-processed meal that is easier for your dog to digest and absorb, helping them get the absolute most out of every bowl.

To keep your Cold Pressed food at its nutritional best, it is important to store it correctly. We recommend keeping the food in its original bag or in a storage box, placed in a cool, dry area away from any direct heat sources (like radiators or sunny windows).

Crucially, Cold Pressed food needs to be able to breathe. Unlike traditional kibble, you should never store it in an airtight container. Keeping the food in a breathable environment prevents moisture buildup and ensures the natural ingredients and oils remain fresh until the very last scoop.

Yes! Our cold pressed dry food is uniquely suited for mixing with raw diets. Unlike traditional kibble, which can take much longer to digest, our cold pressed recipes break down at a similar rate to raw food. This means they can be safely fed together in the same bowl without causing digestive confusion.

Mixing the two is a fantastic way to add varied texture, a wider range of nutrients, and extra flavor to mealtimes. It’s an ideal solution for dogs who thrive on the "crunch" of dry food alongside the freshness of a raw diet, giving them the best of both worlds in every bite.
