Superior Living is 83% free-range chicken, country duck, Scottish salmon and trout. Because it's real meat, not filler, a dog needs a smaller portion β so a 10kg bag feeds a 30kg golden retriever for a whole month.
Worked out with our free dog food calculator for a 30kg adult, moderately active.
One small scoop, weighed. That's all a 30kg dog needs of Superior Living.
One bag, one month. No topping up halfway through.
β¬84.99 a bag Γ· 30 days. Less than a takeaway coffee, for Ireland's highest-rated dog food.
Supermarket and pet-shop foods are bulked out with grains, "meat derivatives" and poor-quality ingredients. Your dog has to eat more of it to get the same nourishment, so the bag empties fast. Compare the cost per day, not the price on the shelf.
What changes with Superior Living
It's not clever marketing. It's what's actually in the bag.
Free-range chicken, country duck, fresh Scottish salmon and trout. Dense, real nutrition, so every gram does more work.
Sweet potato and peas for slow energy. No grain, no wheat, no corn, no soy. Nothing in the bag that's only there to make it heavier.
Cooked low and slow for steady energy release. Calmer dogs, better digestion, no sugar spikes.
Every ingredient, in order. No "meat derivatives", no mystery.
Small kibble in the 2.5kg bag for small dogs. Larger kibble in the 10kg for medium, large and giant breeds. The more you order, the more you save.

Choose your bagBecause of how little your dog needs. A 30kg golden retriever eats about 326g of Superior Living a day, so a 10kg bag lasts around 30 days β roughly β¬2.77 a day. Cheaper foods are bulked out with filler, so the portions are bigger and the bag is gone in a fraction of the time.
Every breed and weight is different. Use our free dog food calculator to see the daily portion, how long a bag lasts and the cost per day for your own dog.
The 2.5kg has a smaller kibble suited to small dogs and is a great trial bag. The 10kg has a larger kibble for medium, large and giant breeds and works out far better value per kilo.
