🦘 Freeze-Dried Raw Dog Food · Complete & Balanced Meal
90% wild kangaroo meat & organs · 61% crude protein · 420 kcal/100g · Formulated for all life stages · Grain-free · Made in Australia
Available in 130g · 425g · 1.1kg
Bugsy's Freeze-Dried Kangaroo is a complete and balanced raw meal made with wild Australian kangaroo: 72% kangaroo meat and 18% kangaroo organs. Pumpkin, apple and broccoli are blended in with camelina oil, DHA seaweed extract, taurine and a full vitamin and mineral premix. Bugsy's formulates it as an everyday main meal for dogs at every life stage, whether you feed it on its own or as part of a rotation.
Kangaroo is a wild-harvested red meat, which makes it a useful addition for owners who like to rotate proteins beyond chicken and beef. Freeze-drying removes the water but keeps the recipe raw. It stores in the pantry rather than the freezer and is ready after a quick soak in warm water, so raw feeding fits easily into busy households and small kitchens.
💡 Good to know
Kangaroo meat is naturally lean, but this complete recipe is energy-dense, with 20% crude fat and 420 kcal/100g. That's ideal for active dogs and dogs who need more calories, but it isn't a low-fat diet. Portion carefully for less active or weight-prone dogs.
⚠️ Before you feed
- This is a raw product. Wash hands, bowls and surfaces after handling, as you would with any raw meat.
- Introduce gradually over 7–10 days by mixing increasing amounts into your dog's current food, especially if they haven't eaten raw before.
- Always provide fresh drinking water.
- Dogs on a vet-prescribed or fat-restricted diet, or with a diagnosed medical condition, should change food only on veterinary advice.

What each ingredient group contributes
- Wild kangaroo meat & organs (90%): the single animal protein in the recipe. Organ meat adds naturally occurring vitamins and minerals that muscle meat alone doesn't provide.
- Pumpkin, apple, broccoli & apple fibre: plant fibre and variety, without grains or starchy fillers.
- Camelina oil & DHA seaweed extract: omega-3 sources. Camelina provides ALA (1.30%), and the seaweed extract contributes DHA.
- Calcium carbonate & dicalcium phosphate: balance calcium and phosphorus in a recipe without bone, giving a 1.37:1 Ca:P ratio.
- Taurine, vitamins & minerals: complete the formula so it can be fed as a daily meal.
- Reishi mushroom extract & sunflower lecithin: functional extras included in the recipe.
Feeding & Preparation
How to prepare
- Measure out your dog's portion into the bowl.
- Pour over warm water (not boiling) and let it soak until the pieces soften.
- Serve straight away and discard anything left uneaten after the meal.
How much to feed
Use the feeding guide on the back of the pack, which sets daily portions by your dog's weight and age. At 420 kcal per 100g, this is one of the more energy-dense recipes in the range, so small changes in portion size make a noticeable difference. Check your dog's body condition regularly and adjust. Fed as a topper, reduce the main meal so total daily calories stay the same.
Storage
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Reseal the pouch tightly after every use. In Singapore's humidity, an open bag will absorb moisture quickly.
- Don't store rehydrated food at room temperature.
Who It's For
A good fit for:
- Dogs of all life stages. Bugsy's formulates this recipe as complete and balanced for puppies, adults and seniors.
- Dogs who haven't eaten kangaroo before and could benefit from a change from their usual proteins.
- Active, sporting or high-energy dogs who benefit from a calorie-dense meal.
- Rotation feeders adding a different red meat to the mix.
- Owners who want raw feeding without freezer space or thawing.
- Grain-free feeding. The recipe contains no grains.
Check with your vet first if:
- Your dog needs a low-fat diet or has a history of fat-related digestive issues.
- Your dog is overweight or on a weight-management plan.
- You live with someone immunocompromised. Speak to your vet or doctor about raw feeding and safe handling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose kangaroo for my dog?
Kangaroo is wild-harvested in Australia rather than farmed, and it gives dogs a different red meat from the usual chicken, beef or lamb. Rotating proteins adds variety to your dog's diet and keeps mealtimes interesting. If your dog has a diagnosed food allergy, work with your vet on any diet change.
Isn't kangaroo low in fat?
Kangaroo meat is, but this is a complete meal rather than plain meat. With organs and camelina oil added, it comes to 20% crude fat and 420 kcal per 100g. It suits active dogs well, but if your vet has advised a low-fat diet, this isn't the right recipe.
How does it compare with Bugsy's Freeze-Dried Wild Boar?
Both are complete and balanced, 90% meat and organs, and made with the same supporting ingredients. Kangaroo is richer at 20% fat and 420 kcal/100g. Bugsy's Freeze-Dried Wild Boar is lighter at 12% fat and 365 kcal/100g. Kangaroo suits dogs that need more energy, while wild boar suits those that need fewer calories.
Can I rotate this with other Bugsy's freeze-dried flavours?
Yes. The range shares the same base recipe, so switching proteins is gentle on most dogs. Rotating also keeps mealtimes interesting for picky eaters. Mixing flavours in the 425g or 1.1kg sizes also unlocks the Bundle & Save discount.
Which size should I choose?
The 130g pouch (about 545 kcal) is a good way to test whether your dog takes to kangaroo. The 425g (about 1,785 kcal) suits small dogs or regular topping. The 1.1kg (about 4,620 kcal) is the better pick for dogs fed this as a daily main meal.
